Hey Guys,
Does anyone know of any Christian McBride bow solos I can transcribe for school? Please don't refer me to a John Clayton Solo, Jimmy Blanton, or anyone else- I need it to be Christian McBride. Thanks!
Danny

I know Christian studied classical bass and bow use (and some of you might say that he wasn't a "great" classical player). I love his bowed solos, especially because of how he articulates certain phrases and it never sounds forced. I've always wanted to study one and now I have a chance to. |

You can hear Christian playing at least one bowed solo on Benny Green's These Are Soulful Days. I lost the CD but remember being overwhelmed by his facility with the bow. |

The song is Parker's Cardboard and the recording is called "Parkers Mood", some great trio stuff there. |
