ML94 Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 (edited) Hi guys this is ripping me apart so please someone put me out of my misery ! So i was shown this jazz standard where there was a beautiful bass melody played at the beginning of it. The main melody is written for bass and its a sort of bass 'feature' (I think). Thing is I cannot remember what it was, I had written down 2 standards and youtubed them but I don't think they are the ones I'm looking for, unless I'm looking at duff videos. Affirmation First Light waterwings Ring any bells to anyone ? Its killing me ! Edited January 24, 2014 by ML94 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ambient Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 What style ? I've played all the things you are with the bass playing the melody as an intro. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
