[@frague1981]

Super clear and useful as is Mark's unmistakeable style!

Good walking line in Moondance by Van Morrison

[@davidbalan6571]

Test yourself by playing the root notes for each chord in the progression first, then move to the octave of each root .

[@Morganstudios]

Third bar of the first example is written differently than what you are playing (and explaining). Made me think I couldn't read music lol!

[@garymulter1571]

Starting at 3:48 you describe coming down from F in Mixolydian and hitting a flat 6 and the tab has it coming down on the G string with 10-9-8-7. Should this be 10-8-7-6? (This gives you an idea how much I like your stuff and how closely I follow you're every move).

[@talkingbasslessons]

Yes. There’s a mistake in the on screen music. I’ve rectified it on the website.

@@talkingbasslessons where can we down load the book of the walking bass exercises..

[@peterkossits4794]

At 2:18, Mark plays something slightly different than what's showing on the tab (but not the notation). Both ways sound good. Pick it off and learn both of the lines.

[@talkingbasslessons]

Yes, the line is written wrong. I’ve amended on the tab/notation over at the website

[@AnnickEudes]

Hi mark. What are the 30 popular tunes you are referencing in the course? Thanks

[@joshDHart]

Are you only plucking with your index finger on the down beats?

[@ticsbassplace]

Gotta big question I've worked on this 1 all week and I've got it down well all except restarting it so my question is at the end walking to that high F what's a good way to restart it to go from the last bar back to the 1st one ??? I hope my question makes sense I tried to type it out right 😂😂😂

[@talkingbasslessons]

@@ticsbassplace This video only covers half the bass line because it’s just a guide on how to use the book. It’s just a 16 bar excerpt from the full 32 bar progression. The rest is in the book along with many other bass lines. The full bass line for this progression is displayed at the beginning of the video.

@@talkingbasslessons good to no thanks

[@ticsbassplace]

@@talkingbasslessons I'm going to have to learn how to read music the right way

[@ticsbassplace]

I would love to have the rest tabbed out 😢😢😢

[@ticsbassplace]

@@talkingbasslessons how do I get the book ? Can u send a link

[@latenight5865]

Where can I find the link?

[@John_F898]

Are the tab and notation correct on bars 3 and 4?

[@ronb7809]

my thoughts too
