  5. hello everyone ive been playing jazz walking bass lines for a short time now. ive started learning some jazz standards and theres always one thing which catches me out and makes my bass lines sound messy. like in autumn leaves where in goes from g to gb, i was wondering if anyone can offer advice on how to keep the bassline sounding nice or wheather im missing a trick. cheers :)

  6. hi again everyone recently ive been practising transposing music and was just wondering if theres anything i need to look out for or whether it really is just moving the positioning of where you play the song on the board? cheers karl

    Early Supremes, any Tamla Motown or Stax. The really early stuff was much simpler in its construction, so I would give that a listen first before you move into the 70's where it became more produced... Also Northern Soul is a fantastic place to start, as the time signatures are almost always on the beat, and every beat. They are also very predictable patterns to follow.. Think of Tainted Love.... It sounds odd, but if you can't pick a specific song up straight away, don't spend ages over it, find another 'quick hit' to learn and get a few in the bag that way, but ALWAYS return to the ones you have parked up, and finish them as your understanding and competence grows.
