Jim. I play guitar since 1992 and a bass few+ years and sadly nobody told me that outlining the chords is not the best/only approach. It`s all about MELODY. THANK you for all GOLDEN tips. Really enjoy the lesson playing on my EUB (yes, not real DB but same scale and problems with intonation :)))))
It’s definitely informative, Mr. Stinnett. Moreover, it’s highly unusual for you to upload a lesson on upright. (Add your sheer enthusiasm, and it’s infectious.) (I might’ve mentioned this earlier.) My mentor was a musician from Putnam Valley, NY named Stephen L. Andersen. When I was 20, Steve introduced me to David Amram. David was nothing if not a character. A short time later, I heard David compliment Steve’s ability to play walking lines like the one in this lesson - something David claimed musicians he’d seen with education at Berklee in Boston couldn’t do.
i LOVE this "language" lessons... Im not exaggerating when I say, "I wish you would do a new one of these each week." This is the kind of stuff I personally struggle with. They way you present it though , makes it sink in.
Calvin, I would like to reccomend a book: www.stinnettmusicbookstore.com/stinnett_music_book_store/srbk9.html All of my students learn jazz language from this book.
(Wondering how long before I can groove like that, since I have only been at double bass for about a month now. Kin pluck out a few scales, and do a very pitch and tonally challenged circle of fifths, but that's about it.)😕
Good job with this lesson i am learning alot from this and the others that you do
thanks for leaving this and all the other lessons
YEAH!!! LOVE YOU JIM, RIP - BUT YOU'RE GOOD UP IN HEAVEN MAN!!
