looking for solo bass arrangements-jazz/blues

Sign in to disble this ad
I'd love to learn some more solo stuff. I've learned Mike Dimin's version of Autumn Leaves and love it, but can't seem to find others like it. I'm looking for bass-specific stuff with a mix of chords and walking. Jazz/blues preferred, but I'm open to others. Anyone know of any good resources?

Look up bass transcriptions on Google, it should be the first one.

EDIT: The third one I've looked at as well.

Thanks, but these are bass lines from jazz tunes. I'm looking for solo bass arangements complete with walking, chords, etc that I can play on my own. They need to incorporate melody, harmony and rhythm. Mike Dimin also published a couple in Bassics mag, but these are the only ones I've seen in print :-(
