All the things you Are

[Jonny Mah]

Here's a vid of me playing the tune on a Fender 70's Jazz bass with Lindy Fralins. General instruction seemed to be the most appropriate place to post it, but I could be wrong. Enjoy.

Cool! You've got some skill to hold it down with just the click. I practice this tune just about everyday (just the bassline, for now).

I especially like that pattern you played around 2:02 - 2:06.
Sounds like you're subbing an [E7 - A] for the [Bb7 - Eb], yeah?

Any general tips for those of us who are in the earlier stages of learning to improv like that?

Sounds great Johnny! I made a similar video some months ago, funny that we both seem to have some issues with the video and audio syncing on youtube:

Nice! You've got a great tone, Groovy Bastard!


...oh, and your bass sounds good too!

Thanks for the nice words SeaBassTheFish!

Well done on both of the videos by both players!
