Double Bass Progressive Jazz Double Bass Repertoire (2017-2019)

Hi all-

I have a new book of jazz bass transcriptions out today and it's free to download.

Progressive Jazz Bass Repertoire is the first part of an annually updated collection, containing 260 pages of basslines, melodies, and solos transcribed over two years of teaching bass and jazz transcription at the Manhattan School of Music Precollege. The text includes pieces recorded by the pioneers of modern jazz bass playing, suitable for a variety of experience levels. Featuring:

- 100+ parts transcribed from historically significant recordings

- Excerpts of various lengths appropriate to all experience levels

- Separate sections for blues, melodies, basslines, and solo transcriptions

- Piano, drum, and horn transcriptions to encourage aural, keyboard, rhythm and listening skills

- Arrangements for solo, duo, and/or trio performance

Has anyone got a working link to this? The link above doesn't seem to work.
I can't understand your problem.... if you accept the "unsecure website" because of the missing "https", you can use the link above...
I just copied the following link a few minutes ago:

(It's the second version..)
Otherwise...I could also send you a copy by mail

Edit: I just understood the problem... the link on the top of the thread doesn't work, because there is a newer version of the "Repertoire"...;) and going to the website of Robert a problem appears with the https..

Politics removed. This is a thread about the generous sharing of hundreds of hours of work by one of our own with other bassists around the world who will find it of interest. There was nothing political about it at all. How it managed to turn political is beyond me.

Actually, that’s not true. It managed to turn political because people are looking to make everything political right now. Just stop it. There is no place for that on Talkbass.
 
Hi everyone, sorry I missed the excitement lol...

I recently updated my website and so my old links no longer work. Here is a link to the most recent version of things:

I'm still working out some issues, especially from the Charlie Parker recordings. When he and Dizzy play there are sometimes more than one version of the same bar... Please send me other typos when you find them, and thanks to everyone for your interest!
