| The bass has been called 'the most important instrument in any band.' The bass player must create interesting lines under the chord changes, keep the 'time flow' or 'pulse' steady, and keep the form of the song together. This book is designed to help bassists create beginning to advanced walking patterns (smooth-sounding lines) that can be used in jazz, blues, R&B, gospel, Latin and country music. By explaining the basics of intervals, chords, and scales the author builds a framework for understanding bass line patterns.
Written by Jay Hungerford in standard notation (no Tab). 96 pages. Includes audio CD.
