📹 Lesson Details:
Today we’re going to take a look at a Stevie Wonder classic: I Wish from the Songs In The Key Of Life album.
There are two main riffs to deal with in this song and we’ll look at them both. We're going to look at the notes in there, I'll give some tips on technique and then we're going to breakdown and analyse what's going on from a harmony perspective.
Analysing bass lines in this way can be a great way of understanding music theory and how it works in practice but it's also a great help when it comes to learning and memorising a song.

These "breakdown" lessons are awesome, and to think -- this is the free material. Imagine how good the premium lessons are!
Nate Watts is an underrated bass player, total monster on tunes like ''Do I Do''
I totally agree. If you're playing bass for Stevie Wonder, You are a bad man.
I agree with your statement! Do I Do has become one of my favorite liness that Nate Watts has played, absolutely underrated!
I totally agree!
I've been playing this track in bands for years now. Once you have the notes in your system, it's quite straightforward, but a physical challange to keep it upspeed during the complete song. Always happy with the breakdowns after chorus😄
You're not wrong. I looked it up yesterday and got the basic flow down in about half an hour but it is an absolute marathon to keep up throughout the song.
Mark thanks for all your tutorial videos. They’ve helped my bass playing so much. 🙂
Love Stevie's Bass Lines!
I've been playing this for quite a while now, wondering how to make it through the entire song, as my hand was aching after 2-3 min already. The secret is: No Streching. Thank you so much for that!
Looking forward to it. Thanks again Mark.
This is one of R&B's simplest yet funkiest basslines.
Always great lessons!!!👌🏻♥️
Thank you for the Great Lesson Mate. Cheers...
“It’s kind of like Facebook, but for bass players.” So…“Bassbook”?
Lol

Whew, I was really trying to do the stretch, but with less jump. And thanks for the staccato tips. Thanks for the lesson. Keep it up!!!
Thank you Mark, I’ve been playing this song for a while, tho occasionally stumbling over the second part, scrambling during the 1st walking line for the right pattern, but breaking it into 3, 3-4 note parts, makes it easier to remember.
I don’t know if that made any sense...
In better words...this lesson helped a lot. Cheers
Great lesson with so many useful tips, thank youi!
You are doing a great job of explaining the technical playing, I really need to hear you play the bassline slowly, quickly does not matter.
Thank you sir
Great lesson Mark thank you
Thanks Mark Smith for the break down
Nate Watts, what a legend!
beautiful tutorial, thank you!!!
Great tutorial on a cool, fun line thx Mark!
What does that mean tune down a half step to D?
Wouldn't it be a whole step?
This is also a good tune to learn in first position using only the first four frets on the bass ☝
That's the way I learned it also, much more fun to play in that position, taking advantage of open strings in the chromatic runs!
Sooooo, I'm so gonna learn this song!!!!
Thank you, Mark. How does one decide in what positions to play bass lines? For example, the Ebm-Ab7 riff could also be played entirely in 1st position. Is there a rule of thumb that one should always favor thicker strings whenever possible?
Did we ever get the bridge breakdown section of the song?
Hi Mark, Great lesson presentation as usual. Any chance of doing an analysis of Stevie Wonder's "Isn't She Lovely"? Cheers and regards, Fred Jansohn
Hey Mark! I would LOVE to see a lesson on how to play “The Lesson” by Victor Wooten!
Great Lesson!
i think I'm gonna cry.
grazie 👍👍👍👍
nice and smooth playin
Wow thanks for spelling it out
After that nice explanation of 16th note swing versus 8th note swing, no 16th notes ever came up 🙂
Thanks 👍🎸🎸
I sweat at @2:35 he was about to play Smoke on the Water.
I'm in!
Great

Huh😢
Please make a tutorial on sex in a pan, victor wooten
That's a pretty p-bass right there
Not bad, but there is too much confusing talks inbetween about skales etc. Just show how to play the song. Keep it simple.
That’s not what this channel is. You’ll probably prefer cover solutions channel for that. This is an educational channel.
