Cool to see how often he doesn’t play the root of the chord on beat one. As a novice walker I always try to play the root on beat one but this shows it isn’t always necessary. Thanks for posting
Not just that, if U`ve seen other greats like Ron, Chambers, Brown most of the time they maintain walking on half and first position on bass. That`s is one of the secrets of the sauce. Mastering all these small details is hard working man.
Wow. He ignores A7 most of the time and plays 45 instead of 2 5 often. There’s even a moment he plays Bb over A7…. Curious to see what’s going on in his head. Pretty sure he’s thinking function most of the time… the line is headed in x direction so he just makes sure to land on the 1 4 and 5 moments and other things are… flexible

I think it's a good rule to use when learning, but you can be more flexible when you want to make art.
