JAZZ AND BLUES BASS LINES
Bruce E. Arnold
This book is a high potency method for any bass guitarist who is
seeking to become a professional musician and who wishes to practice
the techniques used by world class players.
There are many possible ways to construct jazz bass lines. This book
explores one of those possible ways in depth. The method is built
upon the use of chord tones, approach notes and basic
reharmonization techniques.
Three forms common to the jazz idiom are used to explore this
method; the Blues, Minor Blues and Rhythm Changes. A detailed
explanation of the components of building a bass line note by note
is included as well as an explanation of the theory behind basic
reharmonization. This book also contains a section on the proper
scale to use for each chord, with all chord types including
available tensions and avoid notes.
Includes book and 36 audio files on one CD disc of bassist Steve
Lucas playing each progression at a moderate tempo. Written in
standard notation (no TAB). 58 pages.
This book is also available as a digital download for significantly
