it's basically a 1-6-5-3 arpegio on each chords, with a few variations. This is how I learnt and remembered this song. This is much easier to me to think in degrees and chords than in notes/fret numbers.
You are beautifully calm & easy to follow & understand. Your calmness helps with the nerves of learning. Like you are saying “take it easy & have fun with this”.
Donald "Duck" Dunn was a friend of my girlfriend's mother in the 80's because she was married to Bobby Keys the saxophone player for the Rolling Stones. He was a great guy, everybody loved him.
Great lesson! I play at a lot of blues jams so this language is really important to get. It can be simple in that there isn’t a lot of notes to learn, but feel is absolutely crucial. Getting the shuffle feel down or the walking feel, locking in with the drummer, will make a blues gig really fun and exciting. It looks like your course covers soloing on bass over the blues. Every once in a while they’ll throw a solo your way, so it’s good to know.
Hey I really like these videos where you're teaching us how to play a song. I like your videos where you teach theory but learning something to play from you is great.

Just started playing bass. You are the best teacher.
Welcome to bass! (Also, thanks very much for the kind words).

Thanks. Feel free to suggest some songs! Also, do check the playlist I have on learning songs.
Thanks, Dan. Great lesson!
Watching Duck on the Blues Brothers got me into the bass. Great lesson, an upcoming Blues course sounds brilliant!
Such a great film!
Thank you !
Duck is the reason why I became a bass player. This has to be one of the greatest basslines ever. Love to play it.
It really is.
