LukeFRC Posted November 8, 2018 Share Posted November 8, 2018 So I’m being asked what I want for Christmas and wondered what bass books would be good to help me sharpen my playing? The thread can be more general as it’s good to hear from folks of all abilities and music styles rather than focus on me specifically. So Whats the best books you would recommend, and why?

Jazzjames Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 Standing in the Shadows of Motown Super book that’s half biography, half transcriptions of James Jamerson. Well worth the money. Victor Wooten - The Music Lesson I was recommended this book by my brother and was suprised at how interesting and enlightening it was. Worth a read for anyone who would like to better their musical skills. As far as in depth books about specific techniques or styles, I’ve found it’s better to simply go to the source: a good teacher, and/or transcribe what you want to learn from a recording. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
