I usually don't transcribe these note-for-note, but Jamerson's line was so sweet I had to go all the way.

Excellent! Nice playing man. I never get tired of hearing Jamerson.

Can you post your transcription? I'm sure I'm not the only one that would like to see it. Thanks!

Nice job. I checked out some of your other videos where you where playing trumpet solos (Nicholas Payton and Dave Douglas) that you transcribed on bass. Good stuff!

Great job as usual!

I love that song--I played a couple months ago with my teacher.

Great groove man. Also your tone is freaking awesome. Punchy and clear, great for this style of music. Jamerson was a genius.

Nice vid, first rate job transcribing - mucho respect to you, Sir. Many players could learn a thing a two from playing through this. I'll be having a real good stab at it over the weekend, thanks for posting.

Isn't TB great?
