H Building Walking Bass Lines—Ed Friedland. A walking
bass line is the most common approach to jazz bass
playing, but it is also used in rock music, blues, rockabilly,
R&B, Gospel, Latin, country and many other types of
music. The term "walking" is used to describe the moving
feeling that quarter notes create in the bass part. The
specific goal of this book is to familiarize players with the
techniques used to build walking bass lines and to make
them aware of how the process works. Through the use
of 90 minutes of recorded rhythm tracks available online
using the unique code in the book, players will have the
opportunity to put the new learning directly into action.
This book literally gives bassists the tools they need to
build their own walking bass lines!
