greghagger Posted August 13, 2022 Share Posted August 13, 2022 If you play bass for a while then there’s no doubt that you’re going to hear about Jaco! Although his bass lines are often challenging to play, he still used basic pattens that he developed to more complex grooves. A few years into playing bass I worked out one of those pattern and I knew instantly that it was going to be really useful for Funk and Soul bass lines. It falls under the fingers very nicely and sound great! It's a basic 16th note groove that you can use over one chord or when the chord progression moves from chord 1 to chord 5 and back to chord 1 again. You might also have heard of Rocco Prestia and Jerry Jemmott who were also playing in that era, they frequently used this groove in their bass lines too.
