It always surprises me how playing just one note is enough to get the head bobbing. I truly appreciate all you are doing here.. You have a gift of not only being a good teacher bot also giving me (or us) a feeling we are in the same room learning from you and not just watching a screen on the computer.
You have helped transform me from a drummer to a musician. Drums are still where my heart is, but with you as a teacher, the sky is the limit. Thanks again
Everything about bass playing begins right here in this lesson. Because groove is where it’s at! The title got my attention. I didn’t bother to get my bass. I was having too much fun counting 1 2 (e&a) 4, 1 2 e (&a) 4. Where would popular music be without groove? It wouldn’t exist. Great job.
From cerebral to spiritual in the blink of an eye. It’s like musical alchemy. I’ve stopped lesson surfing with other (great) bassists because Rich has me turning lead to gold so quickly. Go on with your bad self !
I can't get enough of Rich Brown's lessons. The pentatonic videos opened the entire fretboard for me and these groove lessons are helping me to use all of those notes correctly. I've gotten plenty of tips from other instructors on TH-cam, but Rich's style is so clear and cool. No shouting, no flying graphics to distract, just the tools needed to make all the friends and neighbors better players.
That means more than I can say. Thank you so very much. I really want these videos to feel like a one-on-one lesson in my living room, not a flashy youtube video. Thank you so much for watching, and I can't tell you how happy it makes me to know these videos have helped. All the best!
Rich! I just found you this is just what I need!! I've been thrown into playing bass for a band... I've been playing guitar for years, and realize that I'm challenged in this department!! Curse of the guitar player switching to Bass!! I'm going to follow all of your lessons and metronome studies and I'm sure this will help me immensely!! Thank You again Rich!!
GREAT exercises Man!! Funny how it's so easy when ya play ALL the notes, but when ya start dropping them out, the trickier it gets. I enjoy your vids very much!! Thanks!!
Thank you for this lesson, great tips and teaching style. I recently tore a tendon in my fretting hand and working on rhythm and timing is just the thing while healing.
Oh my gosh, I have to work this when I get home with my bass. I love fingerstyle and 6th notes, but I’ve always played by feel, not truly able to count everything. Thank you Sifu.
Mister Brown, Thats a RESPECT MISTER. Ur prolly my age and we're stil young. I love ur videos! This groove video is KILLER! Thx for all u doo for we Bass Players! Bless U my friend, dUg-Montesano, WA/USA
Damn You TH-cam !! I Was Thinking About You On Friday And Realized You Have Been Rather Quite - So I Just Popped Over To Mr Rich's Page Here And This Recent Video Was Uploaded 5 Days Ago - What Up With That YT - This Is Definitely One Of Your Better Tutorials For Sure - And Your Editing Skills Have Dramatically Improved Tremendously - I Could Imagine The Kick Drum On A Simple 1 2 3 4 Beat And I Am So Digging The E & Ah Pocket Groove - Then, Those G Minor Notes Sounds So Musical In Reference To My Basic Scale Exercises - Like A Whole New Demission To My Practice Skills - My Mind Race To The 4 Bar Concept Of 1st And 3rd Bars With The First Four Notes, The 2nd Bar With ONLY The E &, And The 4th Bar With E & Ah - Thank You So Much For Explaining This Workout, Thank You For The "Slower" 80 BPM, And For Helping Us All Out With Your Precise Enlightening Guidance - AND More Importantly, So Thankful That You Are A OK !!! Go Team Human Cheers
This video was exactly what I needed today, after a long grind at work. Keep up the great work, and please keep in mind: I would welcome any printed instructional book you'll come up with in the future! Love your positivity! Best wishes & much love from Germany, Patrick
80bpm - beats 1 & 3 are off 2:45 - 4 notes leading to 2 then take away the first note take away the second note take away the third until only the "a" remains
Stay tuned, friends & neighbours. Part II is coming soon.
Yay :)
Rich
The calibre of instruction here is second to none. What a thrill it is to watch an expert bassist and teacher in their element.
That means a lot, brother Matt. Hope we can play again soon.

I couldn't groove for shit, but this is totally a game changer. You're an excellent teacher!
Thank you, brother. May the groove be with you!
The world needs more people like you right now.

Lightbulb moment 💡. Rich my man. WHAT golden nugget. You are a great teacher. You explain things in a calm and relatable manor.

Thank you so much, Javier.
You, Anna One and a bass taking bass education to the bass community. Awesome
What an intro.... I haven't even got to the groove yet. Know its going to be epic already.

This what I have been always looking for
Your tutorials are the best I've seen on the web. Many thanks Rich and keep them coming.
That means a lot, John. Thank you very much for watching.
