[hto1971]

[WinchilLau]

wow the most helpful tutorial on walking bass i've seen so far...thanks!

[luvemliam]

I would like for you to do a video where you are playing the melody...ur singing is good but i need some help with this base line while playing the melody..thanks!

[DrDiablo36]

Nice tuto!! THX

and BTW you sing very well, I think this is the best interpretation I've heard of this song

[77music7man77]

Wow this is the best lesson i got in youtube for walking basslines. Everyone else said the same boring stuff : hit c,e,g,e then f,a,c,a and the g,b,d,b man i got bored with that. Thanks for the quality techniques man!

[tabuma]

you've a great voice

[Alexzandermusic]

Thank for this, your a very good teacher. Love that jazz

[Alexzandermusic]

Thank for this, your a very good teacher. Love that jazz

[rudynyc1]

Great video, but if you could not go so fast so a beginner can follow and turn the camera would help us. Thank you for the video, please do more.....

[TIPXL]

very helpful! I've looked everywhere for help with the walking bassline and I finally found it

[rameylittell]

Great talent man, thanks for sharing. I like the lesson about being able to go all the way up the keyboard, just transpose the notes downward to stay in range.

[Groove25]

A great lesson, thank you very much!

[Iwillneverfalterr]

Awesome awesome tutorial this is just what i needed. Thank you

[Prilly49]

This is a terrific tutorial! Thanks.

[jaressloo]

@Prilly49 Thank you.

[Prilly49]

Jaress, this is a great tutorial! I really appreciate it. It does suggest to me that jazz means changing the tempo, my sheet music is 3/4 time. But using the notes in the circle of 4ths makes it 4/4 time. Which suits me fine. I'll just rewrite the sheet music if I need to.

[haein0543]

thanks :) very helpful!

a good singer too!

[realjuvelive]

how to play the fit bass for the song !? what the purpose of intervals? and what is the difference between intervals and chords ?hope i find answer...

[renatovcortereal]

very very good

thanks a lot

[tatacass]

Adorei a aula.

[rtty21]

awesome!!!

[george42007]

Very, very useful. You've told me exactly what I was missing (filler notes stuff) Good choice of song (sinatra is why I took up piano). The voice is not too shabby either. Thanks for posting!

[deathheart211]

please let me know how to read the counts or beat on this like 6/8,4/4 and so on. thanks. ROSE

[jaressloo]

Hi! This song is in 4/4. I think that's what you're asking, right? I hope that helps. :)

[tlong927]

Great it helped sooo much...lol

[johnnynoirman]

turn the piano so people can see the voicings

[jaressloo]

Maybe I'll just turn the camera. :) You're right though...it's hard to see this.

[johnnynoirman]

thanks jaressloo....do you windows media player?..it would be easy to arrange.

[johnnynoirman]

I agree with you..it's just common sense to have the camera facing your hands If your doing a piano tutorial ...unfortunately common sense.. is not that common. @jaressloo

[jaressloo]

@johnnynoirman yeah. for the placement of the keyboard and camera, it just wouldn't have worked out. i'll turn it for next time... i also did it this way on purpose so that people would listen to what I was saying and listen to the notes and apply the strategies to every key instead of applying the exact notes that i played...

[SIRONEDRAGON]

Jaress Great ideas !!

Steve told me about your channel

[hiphoplives1]

excellent tutorial!!! it helped so much!! ive made 2 tracks since with jazz vibe, and they turned out great! thanks man..

[Praisesong4]

Fantastic tutorial! Thank you!!!

[hendryrusli]

Great tutorial! Thanks :)

[sickwitdastix08]

killin dude.

[ChristophPagelJazz]

This is great stuff! Please check out MY tutorial aobut how to play Walking Bass, using Autumn Leaves as example. It´s German and English.

Please let me know what you think about it! I´m totally new with the whole online-tutorial-stuff..... Greetz from Berlin, Germany!

[Virtuenow]

This was very helpful- for cross over genres like you would not believe. That song kinda sounds like Jamiroqui's "Virtual Insanity" (look it up-i think it follows your bass line!)

[epter]

this was great! thank you very much

[jaressloo]

no problem! glad I could help!

thanks for the tips. walking bass has always been something i want to learn. this video helps a lot, but obviously it takes lots of practice, especially when coordinating with the right hand. it looks like a lot of fun to play like that!

[mndi89]

[jaressloo]

Haja! Sorry about that...i see the comments, but i rarely actually come to the videos. I'm working on some new stuff to get out to you guys. Thanks for all the comments!

I'll see if I can post some more stuff on walking bass lines on piano. This video does cover a lot of the basics though. :)

[eluvian]

This helped me a lot i've switched to bass guitar,just started writing lines-so this was great- many thanks

[jaressloo]

Glad I could help!

[mlavik1]

Thanks this was very helpful:)

I was wondering.. Can you do the same when improvising with right hand? Play the scale, but going through a F# if the next chord is C?

[jaressloo]

I'm not sure I understand what you're saying. You could definitely do the same thing with your right hand. The right hand is a little easier because you can put the accidentals almost anywhere you want because in the right hand, most of those will be passing notes!

[mlavik1]

Oh, ok thanks alot!

[mndi89]
