Bilbo Posted July 6, 2022 Author Share Posted July 6, 2022 A simple but exquisite part from the hands of Charlie Haden, this is the tune 'Etudes' from the 2011 Haden release 'Private Collection'. Simple to read and simple to play but, as is always the case with Haden, it is all about the feel and the sound. https://bilbosbassbites.co.uk/etudes-charlie-haden-quartet/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bilbo Posted July 8, 2022 Author Share Posted July 8, 2022 Another relatively simple one, this is Victor Bailey's complete bass performance on the tune 'Confians' from the 1985 Weather Report album, 'Sportin' Life'. https://bilbosbassbites.co.uk/confians-weather-report/ 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FDC484950 Posted July 8, 2022 Share Posted July 8, 2022 Excellent, thank you. Victor was an underrated bass player - his solo album “Low Blow” also has some fantastic playing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bilbo Posted July 11, 2022 Author Share Posted July 11, 2022 (edited) Tough little nut to crack, this one, and I am not convinced I have got it right. There is something going on with the bar lengths that is throwing me and I cannot find where it is and the lines are all over the bass so I am not even certain that I have it in the right octave at time! If you can see the odd bar length or disagree on the specific note choices, let me know so I can revisit the chart. In the meantime, this is the complete Dave LaRue bass part for the tune 'Slice Of Time' from the 1995 Steve Morse Band album, 'Structural Damage'. https://bilbosbassbites.co.uk/slice-of-time-steve-morse-band/ Edited July 11, 2022 by Bilbo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bilbo Posted July 13, 2022 Author Share Posted July 13, 2022 A complete transcription of Jonathan Davie's bass part for the tune 'First Steps' from the 1980 2nd Vision album of the same name. Nice littel chart that is only 1:36 long and he doesn't play on one third of it https://bilbosbassbites.co.uk/first-steps-2nd-vision/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bilbo Posted July 15, 2022 Author Share Posted July 15, 2022 A complete transcription of the Wil Dog Abers bass line for the tune 'Cut Chemist Suite' from the first Ozomatli album released in 1998. Lots of repetition and repeats so good for practicing 'geography' as well as dots. https://bilbosbassbites.co.uk/cut-chemist-suite-ozomatli/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bilbo Posted July 15, 2022 Author Share Posted July 15, 2022 At the suggestion of ChrisDev, I have redone the 'Slice Of Time' transcription in 3:4. It hangs together much better that way (no link - it is on the same age as the other 6:8 version). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bilbo Posted July 15, 2022 Author Share Posted July 15, 2022 Another tune from the same album, this is the complete bass part for the tune 'Donde Se Fueron'. https://bilbosbassbites.co.uk/donde-se-fueron-ozomatli/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

itu Posted December 1, 2022 Share Posted December 1, 2022 Wasn't he making new pages? I cannot believe he wouldn't be lurking somewhere around there and putting together some amazing stuff. Maybe we need to wait a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmccombe7 Posted December 2, 2022 Share Posted December 2, 2022 He's not posted on this thread since July which is unusual. Haven't noticed any comments on the other threads i follow. If anyone knows him let us all know he's ok. Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gareth Hughes Posted December 2, 2022 Share Posted December 2, 2022 And the links are now just a holding page. Hope all is well with him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
