Summary of This Book
Designed for all musicians who want to understand and play bass lines that "sound right," this collection offers detailed transcriptions of bass lines built on harmonic progressions of standards. The goal is twofold: to enrich your walking bass vocabulary (chord movements, target notes, chromaticism, tension management) and to develop a sense of groove in real situations. By reading the sheet music, you can play along with the bassist on the Play-A-Long recording (sold separately) to assimilate their articulation, time, and nuances. Once the feel is mastered, the stereo separation typical of Play-A-Longs allows you to mute the bass part and find yourself in a trio with the rhythm section (piano/drums): an ideal practice for working on autonomy, consistency, and harmonic direction. The lines are transcribed over the chord progressions of: Blue Moon, Don't Blame Me, I Left My Heart In San Francisco, Invitation, Just Friends, Laura, My Secret Love, No Greater Love, On The Trail, On Green Dolphin Street, Once In Awhile, Over The Rainbow, Spring Is Here, Star Eyes, Stompin' At The Savoy, The Shadow Of Your Smile, You Stepped Out Of A Dream, Without A Song.
