Five Classic Funk Grooves Video

[greghagger]

Funk tunes from the late 60s/early 70s era are particularly great for bass grooves with a lot of these songs being built around the bass line. The bass is often high in the mix and easy to hear, just how I like it!

 

This week I've put together five of these classic funk grooves for the latest GBS YouTube lesson. 

 

You can have a lot of fun with these grooves. They aren't too tricky to play but the emphasis is on playing 'in the pocket' with a laid-back feel. You can really work on your ostinato playing with these five grooves.
