Summary of This Method
Easy Pop Bass Lines Play the Bass Lines of 20 Pop and Rock Songs is a collection designed to get you playing real bass lines on iconic songs, while staying within a framework suitable for beginner to intermediate bassists. The goal is clear: to quickly put you in a musical situation, with immediately recognizable bass lines useful for working on tempo, consistency, and placement.
By working through these 20 tracks, you explore very different atmospheres: energetic rock, melodic pop, blues, vintage rhythms, and more "radio" standards. It is an excellent resource to develop endurance, coordination, and cleanliness of playing, while learning to make the bass breathe within the song (attacks, rests, dynamics). The link with Hal Leonard's Book 1 allows you to find fundamental concepts (reading, rhythms, positions) directly applied in concrete songs.
The selection includes: A Whiter Shade Of Pale, All The Small Things, Born Under A Bad Sign, Come As You Are, Crossfire, Dancing In The Street, Friends In Low Places, Great Balls Of Fire, I Can't Help Myself (Sugar Pie, Honey Bunch), Imagine, Lady Madonna, My Girl, Peggy Sue, Smoke On The Water, Surfin' U.S.A., Takin' Care Of Business, Tennessee Waltz, Walk Of Life, Wild Thing, Wonderful Tonight. An ideal songbook for serious practice without losing the joy of playing.
