seashell Posted October 8, 2019 Share Posted October 8, 2019 Well done! I went on a 3 day intensive jazz course in the summer, but I'd still be too scared to get up and jam it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deepbass5 Posted October 9, 2019 Share Posted October 9, 2019 I have a downer around the small jazz jam scene, at the moment. But If you are serious about being a competent all round bass player you can't ignore Jazz. In fact i go one step further and say it is the most important skill you will learn. So it should be studied, you will find every other form of music you get involved in, will benefit, all the jazz tools will come in handy. Country R&B Rock. I much prefer big band standards and reading arrangements in the larger band situation but many parts that you will be presented with will contain white space ( chord passages where you will be expected to improvise) which is why i put myself through the agony of Jazz jams - keep the tools sharp +1 for Kind of Blue is the best jazz album I have. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
