I've had a Mintzer book for a long time and never looked at it. But, I'm starting to appreciate his work. I recently transcribed "Three Views of a Secret" from the "I remember Jaco" album with Jeff Andrews on bass.

Vernie Robbins’ bass playing on "Groove Me" and other Malaco hits like Jean Knight’s "Mr. Big Stuff" helped define the funky, soulful sound of the era. King Floyd - Groove Me

A minimoog bass line from the 80s Evelyn Champagne King - Love Come Down

Nathan East, always enhancing the song without overplaying. Anita Baker - Lead me into love

Recognized as one of the notable, if somewhat underrated, voices from the early Motown era. Caroline Crawford - It Rains Because | Ted Waterhouse

And back to the 80s Patti Austin and James Ingram - Baby, come to me | Eddie Watkins Jr.

7/8 madness with Tim Lefebvre on bass. Donny McCaslin - Faceplant Described on the interwebs as jazz virtuosity with raw, aggressive, punk-like visceral energy, flat-out aggressive, pushing its intensity "far into the red".

Oh, I absolutely didn't mean it like that. Transcribe whatever you feel like transcribing. I like to compare and learn. As you said before "The more the merrier!"

Done this one very recently as well. Compare time 😀 Edit: Forgot you already knew that

Another one from the 'Saturday Night Fever' soundtrack, written by the Bee Gees. 9th Scott Edwards transcription and more to come. Yvonne Elliman - If I can't have you

The 2025 "A Matter of Time" album continues her signature sound, mixing jazz, pop, and classical influences. Laufey - Lover Girl | Spencer Stewart

If you’re a fan of Pino Palladino’s work, you’ll appreciate his bassline on Paul Young’s cover of "Everytime You Go Away"

Guess what my next transcription will be! 🤔 😀 Hall & Oates - Everytime You Go Away | John Siegler

Yesterday was Culture Day in Japan. Pop/Rock with a wild rock bass line at 180bpm LiSA - Crossing Field | Yuichi Takama Straightforward rock with lots of octaves Stereopony - Hitohira No Hanabira | Nohana Kitajima The cutest thing you'll see/hear today Haku. - Mono no aware | Kano Metal with catchy vocals Band Maid - Thrill | Misa One of my favourite City Pop songs Mariya Takeuchi - Plastic Love | Koki Ito Wrapping up the series with a cover of Plastic Love by The Tokyo-based Friday Night Plans. I'm certainly going to look for more recordings with Tomoya Tamaru! Friday Night Plans - Plastic Love | Tomoya Tamaru

Just posted a transcription for Magic Touch by Rose Royce. Lequient Jobe’s slap bass on this track is punchy and full of energy.

My 100th transcription of 2025 is a tribute to Jaco by the Pat Metheny Group with Mark Egan on bass. Includes the fretless bass solo!

9th Chaka Khan and 9th Anthony Jackson transcription. Those fills in the Coda!! 😃 Chaka Khan - What Cha' Gonna Do for Me

No idea what they did here, but sometimes bands/musicians would slow down recordings. That's often the reason why a recording is 'between two keys'

Beautiful cover :

Mogens Seidelin’s upright bass line from Champion Jack Dupree’s ‘Everyday I Had The Blues’.

It's been a while since I posted a Joe Dart transcription. This one was released about 4 months ago. Fearless Flyers - Autobahn

I have 12 of his solo CDs and one Chick Corea Electric Band CD, and have only transcribed 1 solo 🙄 (My summer vacation from Another World) Favourite Album: One more Angel

Another from the London based alternative rock band Palace - Break The Silence | Will Dorey

Robert Hurst’s funky upright bass groove on the Ocean’s Eleven soundtrack. David Holmes - Pickpockets

My 68th Motown transcription is Reggie McBride's bass line on 'Smile Please' by Stevie Wonder.
