I’ve had to pause accepting new contributions. I just don’t have the time to review them all properly. But every now and then, something special comes along that’s worth making an exception for. Bill Bruford - Fainting In Coils | Jeff Berlin

"Calling out posers and the vacuity of a lifestyle built on appearances rather than substance." Living Colour - Glamour boys | Muzz Skillings

Just posted the bass transcription of Pino Palladino’s part in the live version of “New York Minute” by Don Henley.

Beautiful ballad with Ron Carter on bass. Arco, Pizzicato, Harmonics, power chords,... it's all in there Roberta Flack - The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face

Still groovin' after 33 years! En Vogue -My Lovin' (You're Never Gonna Get It) The last from Glastonbury 2025

Jorja Smith's live rendition of "Teenage Fantasy" at Glastonbury 2025. Basslines are always so much more interesting in live versions.

Alanis Morissette’s performance was outstanding at Glastonbury 2025 Thank U

The festival season is winding down, and this week, I’ll be sharing some of the best moments from Glastonbury 2025. Here’s the first highlight! Lola Young's latest release "One thing"

Thank you so much! It's been too long since I visited Mons...I'm currently in Antwerp

I could listen to Candi's voice all day Candi Staton - He Called Me Baby Bass: Bob Wray, Jerry Masters or Jesse Boyce

Today's transcription is Duran Duran's "Ordinary World" with John Taylor

Some Latin music Poncho Sanchez - Short Dog |Tony Banda

The latest addition to my website is a bass transcription for Olivia Dean's "Be My Own Boyfriend" with Finn Zeferino-Birchall on bass. Another gem from the UK.

A typical 80s US pop track. Abe Laboriel laying down the groove in this one. Sheena Easton - Strut

I went to a demo with Willis at a local music shop. He's one of those players that says: "I never practice, I just play XX hours a day" 🙄

Ronnie Baker was a key figure in shaping "The Sound of Philadelphia" during the late 1960s and 1970s, contributing to numerous hits. https://basslessons.be/transcriptions.php?i=1044

Absolutely not. I wish I had had those when I was learning to read music.

Marvin Gaye - Distant lover 28 James Jamerson transcriptions! 17x Marvin Gaye. 6th from the "Let's get it on" album.

Lots of personal preferences. I also write what works best for me on stage. I like to see the structure of the song immediately. The key signature gives me a basic hand positioning, etc.. I'm pretty sure the repeat is exactly the same here. I will have another listen. I don't use repeats either if there's more than 1 note different.

A bass transcription of Curtis MayField's "Do Do Wap Is Strong In Here" from the "Short Eyes" album with Joseph "Lucky" Scott is now online.

Still one of my favourite UK artists. Elli Ingram - Growing Pains

Sade performed 'Be Thankful For What You Got' live in Japan back in 1986. The track is originally by William DeVaughn, featuring Ronnie Baker on bass (also on my website). Sade - Be Thankful For What You Got | Paul S. Denman

I have a few of those. Frustrating... I once contacted the guitarist of the band Fates Warning for help. I don't remember his reply, but in essence it was "I don't feel like it". The drummer never replied.
