There is a point with this riff where I get it all down together at 188 bpm and it finally sounds like the real deal THEN my brain gets excited about it causing the mussel memory to fall and my fingers suddenly feel like 5 pound bricks each. Lol I’m almost there.

Les Claypool, the original Blue Collar (Bass) Tweaker, an imagination set on course by the likes of the equally brilliant Geddy Lee and The Residents. The former Claypool introduced to the Hall of Fame, while the latter was covered many times live, as well as on one EP (the name of which escapes me currently).

Those open D slap to hammer on 6 or hammer on 8s are so damn quick! If they're played too slow they throw the phrasing of the riff off completely. Good times! Primus sucks!

Good vid, but why do you write flats when it's written in a sharp key? And why restate the accidentals?
@talkingbasslessons
@talkingbasslessons Жыл бұрын
Accidentals don’t have to match a key signature. The key signature is A major. What accidental are you to use for a flattened second function? It will be a Bb. Not an A#. You have to differentiate between harmonic and melodic functions when stating accidentals. Is it a chromatic chord tone? Is it an ascending passing tone? Is it a descending passing tone? Is it a modal scale tone? The function is everything. As for restating accidentals, I actually didn’t (although there’s nothing wrong with that). I used sharps after they had been naturalised. That’s absolutely necessary otherwise the natural would still be in effect.
