I Could Write A Bass Line | I Could Write A Book Walking Bass Lesson


In this video I discuss the Rufus Reid method for improving at walking bass lines - simply writing them out yourself! This comes from Rufus Reid's fantastic jazz bass book, "The Evolving Bassist". Reid recommends writing out your bass lines BY HAND using a pencil and music paper. As you go, play what you've written and ask yourself if you like how it sounds. If the answer is yes, keep writing. If the answer is no, erase and change it. It's by no means a revolutionary method, but it's surprisingly effective. You'll internalise walking bass vocabulary more easily and improve your music literacy skills too.


You can download the finished walking bass line typed up in MuseScore PDF format from my Patreon page. Link above.
