For complete info and to order: homespun.com/shop/hs_bass5
Jack Casady shares his ideas and techniques with learning bassists. In an informal and delightful session (Jorma Kaukonen provides vocals and guitar along with companionable commentary), Jack analyzes his bass parts for classic tunes from the Hot Tuna repertoire and discusses the musical concepts that make up his unique style -- melodic lines, tonal variety, chordal work, and improvisational solos. You’ll see all of Jack’s tricks: the use of partial chords, sustained notes, tremolos, trilling, tonal variety and many other fascinating devices.
Songs include “Ninety-Nine Year Blues,” “Blues in A,” “San Francisco Bay Blues,” “Been So Long,” “Mann’s Fate” and “Water Song.”
