Hey Chris, another great tutorial! First class production on these. As soon as you said walking bass, I thought of Frank Muschalle. And I like your interpretation, jumping from F to F, vs walking back down :-) Take the A train reminded me of Moritz Schlömer playing this tune in the medley with you and Stefan Ulbricht. Ah, so many great videos! Absolutely love it! Right, time to practice...
Chris, I've been dying to learn this walking bass, thanks for this. Boy have I got a lot of practicing to do this week! Could you perhaps do a video on how to practice left hand/right hand independence? For a beginner like me, my hands think they are a pair for goodness sake and I keep trying to make them lead their own lives! Keep these videos coming and thank you for taking the time to reach out to all of us around the world. Bill
Hi Bill, I'm not Chris but here's a bit of advice from another beginner: keep your practice simple and slow. Can't stress the slow bit enough (talking to myself here, too!) Begin with a simple left hand like the chop (plenty of RUclips videos on this) for example in C this is CG/CA repeated for the first 8 bars. Then add a chord, as Chris teaches in level 4 of this video (4:15) but do it on the first beat of each bar only. Once you've got this, try beats 1 & 3. Then 1, 2, 3 & 4. Once you've got that far (which could take days or weeks depending on how much time you have) try playing right hand chords on something like beats 1 & 4. Then spice things up a bit with the 'and' of beat 4 & beat 2. Arthur Migliazza has done a video on this, which includes physical exercises, too. I've also found right hand blues scale improv has helped me with hand independence. Play around, have fun. Take it slow, focus on accuracy and before long, you'll realise you've made good hand independence progress. The main thing is to practice, practice, practice. Every day if you can. Practice. Something each day will be better than one marathon session at the weekend. Did I say practice? Hope this helps, and in the words of Terry Miles, all the boogie best 😀👍🎹 PS I've slowed this down to 0.5 speed and still can't quite figure out when Chris comes in with the quick C6 stab 🤯. It sounds fantastic. One day.......
Der rollende Oktavbass ist eine super zeitlose Begleitfigur. Hier kann man hören wie es Mary Lou Williams macht. Am Schluss nimmt sie sogar noch mit dem Zeigefinger eine Quinte zum Basston. ruclips.net/video/QMxAOMXlIzg/видео.html
Vielen Dank für das geile Video Ich finde es super das es jetzt auf diesem Kanal regelmäßig etwas zu Boogies gibt👍 Nochmal zur one Minute Challenge : ist es möglich nochmal mitzumachen? Ich würde dann gerne noch einen Boogie aufnehmen ( finde diese Challenge super , vielen Dank nochmal) Liebe Grüße Gregor
Hallo Gregor. Danke für deine Nachricht. Du kannst gerne weitere One-Minute-Boogies hochladen. Bei der Präsentation werde ich jedoch darauf achten, dass jeder max. einmal vorgestellt wird. Weiterhin viel Spass :-) Liebe Grüsse, Chris
