Anyone using the recent Patitucci Walking Bass book?

The sample pages only cover introductory exercises not the real meat of the book. I'm wondering what the rest of the text is like. Thanks.

This looks like a really good book… I think I’m gonna have to pick it up. I studied with him through his online lesson program and this is probably similar.
BTW I saw him with the Harlem string Quartet last Saturday and it was the best concert literally I have ever seen. I was lucky enough to be in the front row in a small house and it was a completely acoustic concert. Absolutely amazing he is a genius and incredible composer musician

Yeah, his tone on upright is killer.

Hi, I see that some time has passed. I wonder if you mind sharing your experience with the book?
