Trip! I was fortunate enough to play this instrument at summer namm several years back. Amazing player and extremely nice guy.

The Baaadest bass player in the country, Willie Weeks y'all! (not a video)
Long jam - if you don't have the patience tune in at 8:25 - that is when Willie will take you to school on how to craft a bass solo that will wiggle a rump and make yo heels thump!!!

OK, not (alas) video, and no actual bass solo, but a prime example of supple, constantly changing bass as a driving force in the music - Fillmore East 2-11-70, 2nd set.  Be aware, though, you can disregard the times listed; Dark Star lists at 2:10 & runs ~19:00, for example (and you really should listen to the DS>Spanish Jam>Turn On Your Lovelight medley as a whole ).  
Enjoy!

PS - no, that's not just the Dead; over the course of the jam Arther Lee joins on percussion, Peter Green on guitar, Hart goes to precussion & Butch Trucks takes over his kit, Duane Allman on guitar, Gregg on keys, & Berry Oakley joins on bass, then Phil leaves.

solo starts at around 3 minutes and its Pedro Aznar. Beautiful sounds!

Great link Bradley. I had the pleasure of hanging out with Trip at the first UK bass day and he's a great player (and a really nice guy). There aren't too many bassists who can play an amazing solo and sing over it!
