Wow - where was a teacher like you in 1965. I grew up in Baltimore and the radio at the time was full of Soul and Blues. Teachers didn't grow on trees for the bass at that time. Thanks for sharing and taking the time to do the videos.

You don't have to de-tune the whole bass for "Summer of '69", just the E-string.

[@JazMoss]

Whatever works for you 😊

[@kennet7837]

@@JazMoss That's based on the isolated bass track. I had to learn songs fast for a gig as well, and isolated bass tracks (which there are many of on KZbin nowadays) has been making things super easy, especially if the bassline sits low in the mix.

How are you not famous-

[@JazMoss]

Aw that's very kind of you. I like to keep a low profile but I love sharing tips or things I've learnt on this channel so stay tuned for more videos like this one!

[@geepers100]

Excellent video! Thanks so much

[@JazMoss]

You're very welcome! I'm glad you enjoyed it 😀

I'm five minutes in, and as a guitarist I find this helpful. I almost skipped past it because it was for bass.

[@JazMoss]

Amazing I'm so glad thanks Jay!

[@amazingict1]

This is great… lots of useful tips presented in an easy to understand format. Thanks from Richard

[@JazMoss]

Ah nice thanks Richard I'm glad you enjoyed the video!

Wow Jaz, I thought I was the only one that experienced that, (terrifying), "mind going blank" thing. Thanks for this. I'll still feel terrified but at least not alone. :-)

[@JazMoss]

We've all been there! Glad you enjoyed the video :-)

This is why I started to practice sheet music because I get sent about 80+ songs weekly

[@JazMoss]

Ah nice yeah sheet music can be super helpful for that!

[@KeithCamplin]

Really great video.

[@JazMoss]

Thanks Keith I'm glad you enjoyed it! 😀

Great video. Classic lesson on taking the bass out the case and forgetting your notes. Check and check again. It’s amazing how simple errors like that can end in a car crash, and we all do them all the time 😂

[@JazMoss]

It's so funny how I'd spend so much time preparing and then a simple error like that would ruin all the work I put in! Something I want to start doing more is working on my retention of tunes. I have a few tricks and tools I use to retain songs but it's defintaley a working progress (I feel like it's getting worse the older I get) 😂

Please share your rhythm video with the group

[@JazMoss]

Yeah sure, which video do you mean exactly?

I NEED BASS

[@JazMoss]

Nice 👍

[@ozzie-sk9dh]

Great video thanks. But I don’t get why you had to learn 125 songs in 2 days for a rehearsal. That’s about 8 hours of playing straight. 😂
