I love the fact that someone went and wrote out what most bass players need to work on and review: the fundamentals of walking bass over changes that are the foundation of many jazz standards. With rhythm changes in all keys, you will have a wealth of source material for review and practice. And as an added bonus, there are exercises for practicing ascending 4ths, which can serve as ideas for walking and great ear training for a very common chord progression in popular music.
I've been looking to get my walking bass lines up in jazz on electric bass. This looks promising!
great stuff, looks like i can spend a year on this material
Une façon intelligente et interessante de mettre en place des réflexes de walking.
Soy saxofonista y lo recomiendo al 100. El material lo puedes aplicar en cualquier instrumento. Lo mejor del libro es que no te hace ahorrarte el trabajo personal. Si de verdad quieres internalizar todo el material tienes que trabajar en ello...
The etudes were great. The annotations were especially helpful. Looking forward to a volume 2.
Very interesting and useful.
After two days, I can’t have a full opinion but I like the approach and the content.
Let’s practice !
Such a great pack! It's amazing for sight-reading, great for practicing comping, soloing and doing bass-lines to these great tunes. And such intricate and awesome contrafacts here. 10/10 recommend!
I’m still relatively new to jazz (been studying it for about four years but have been playing guitar for more than 20 years). As a guitar player, my jazz listening is focused on guitar (well and Charlie Parker because it all leads to him anyway), so my vocabulary isn’t complete. The annotated version of Will’s etudes is amazing because now I have context to what he’s referencing and it’s not just arpeggios and incomplete scales. Amazing and a steal for what he’s charging.
As an amateur bass player I must say, this is for me next level practicing! It deals with all the aspects of getting a better bassist. It improves my reading skills, understanding the chord progressions and what (possible) notes to play over. I have committed myself to master these 10 songs within 6 months (I practice every day for 1-1,5 h per day).
Great to have 10 well known Jazz songs in my library. The scores look neat and clear; together with the audio samples this is a nice and complete set to practice with. Thanks!
