Bilbo Posted April 23, 2019 Author Share Posted April 23, 2019 This is a transcription for bass guitar of Gerry Mulligan's full baritone saxophone part for his tune 'Song For Strayhorn' off the LP 'Walk On The Water', chosen for transcription because it can be played on the bass quite easily.

Reminds me to be where I should be: in well played basics. (No, I am not flashy at all, although sometimes try to be. With modest success.) @Bilbo: Thank you for your legible scores.

Bilbo Posted May 25, 2019 Author Share Posted May 25, 2019 A reading exercise, this it the synth bass line that underpins the song 'Onward' from the Yes LP 'Tormato'. The bass part is minimal in this tune and this part is essentially a quarter note 'walking' bass line (not in the Jazz sense but still a bass note pulse on which the harmony hangs). I took a couple of liberties when I couldn't really hear the note under the string arrangements but it is essentially all there. It is a useful reading exercise for relative beginners.

Bilbo Posted June 18, 2019 Author Share Posted June 18, 2019 An interesting little thing by Ralph Towner, only 1.26 long. I transcribed the guitar part and then re-transcribed it for double bass. A solo piece that most of us on here can play, a spacy ECM vibe - all tone and no technique. I cannot post a link to the tune as it is not available on youtube (it was but it isn't there now).
