I liked this. There's a couple views of the drummer from the side, where you can see he had a high cymbal rotary-cut, so it extended like a spring down to the ground. Would love to hear what that sounded like, in isolation; never seen than before.
Here's that young lady (Ellen Alaverdyan) on the bass again....rocking it this time! She is gifted.
That's her dad on the guitar...

These kids really have some talent. Same young lady I've been highlighting is the bass player in this. I'm very much enjoying listening to their Muse cover....

Don't know what you are trying to infer, but my interest is strictly in the music and the amazing young talent....which gives me great hope for the future of good music, being first and foremost....my very favorite form of entertainment.
Certainly looks like Im not the only bassist here LOL - Here's some of my favs. Of course we can start with some Vic 
and Marcus of course
STUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!!!
and we cannot forget Rocco
and the man, the legend: James Jamerson. 👑
and because JJ needs more than just one video, he was that amazing and intuitive. I wish he was still alive to thank him for all the great bass and music he laid down for countless billions of people to enjoy of the years. He was the heartbeat of the snake pit and that Motown sound.

What a great share. Thank you!
Now moving from Detroit to LA...
...and to New York City...
Yep, Carol Kaye was prolific with the wrecking crew as was Bob Babbit with the FunkBrothers. It's unfortunate her credited work is disputed because it diminishes their collective contributions of the eras music. I dont get it but egos and memory being what they are, it happens I suppose. just realized I made no mention of Jaco Pastorius as well. All formative and pioneering session players of their times.
Jaco being weird
and some Bob

Big thumbs-up on Rocco, Victor and Jamerson (unfamiliar with Stu Hamm, and will definitely take a pass on MM).
You left out my favorite, Mark King of Level 42. Killer player who also sang lead while playing, not something I could do.
EDIT: Holy crap, can't believe I forgot Tony Levin!
And one more. This is KC's first appearance on Fridays, the first time I ever heard the band. My jaw hit the floor, and I bought Discipline the next morning. Life-changing album for me.
