Sinicrope, Bob: Walking Bass Line Construction - F Blues

The most helpful beginner’s guide to walking bass lines ever published. A must for teachers and students, each exercise introduces one new advancement to help students to learn how to create their own bass lines. The book progresses step-by-step from simply playing roots, all the way up to complete blues choruses in the style of 18 bass legends, from ‘Pops’ Foster to Ron Carter. Bassists can choose from four different, professionally recorded backing tracks: piano and drums, guitar and drums, hammond organ and drums, or drums only. Exercises include concepts of approach notes, enclosures, passing tones, and forward motion, with detailed explanations of each concept, plus how to practice playing with spirit, how to deepen your groove and more. TAB is included for beginner electric bassists and the range is limited to high C (1st 5 frets for electric players). “An amazing book for anyone learning to walk jazz bass lines. A very simple but unique approach!” Victor Wooten"
