It's the bit where everyone stops and you keep going (generally thinking 'oh, fcuk!! Is this right? Shoudl I have shut the fcuk up by now or what'? 'Why is everyone staring at me'?

It is usually a bass cliche but best check before you play it :lol:.

Often, the whole band will play the main theme (the 'head'..?), maybe a couple of times through, then the soloists will take a solo in turn each (maybe a turn for the bassist, too..!), then back to the theme and out. The basic chart structure remains valuable during these bars, normally. 'Soli' is simply the plural form of 'Solo'.
