Definitely a solo for jazzheads to interpret, for the average non-jazz listener the solo sounds like outside the box random note diharea. Great for sunday afternoon jazz jams at a local Fresno club that caters to this style of "outside " playing. By the way, Great solo Todd.
..." the solo sounds like outside the box random note diharea." What I love is how limited perception can be sometimes... the places who cater to... a sound only good for... And also how you use diharea and "great solo Todd" all in the same response... Classic! BTW Todd, thanks for your info on your thumb technique... I'm faster and playing more clean! Priceless! Thanks!
excellent job, man. I just sat down with my fake book to learn this song...but my reading is TERRIBLE...so i decided to try to learn the way that i know best (by listening!) and i stumbled across this. Keep playing that bass, man!!!
Very nice and easy sound man. I love it. Keep on posting dude.

How do you learn to do jazz bass solos and more importantly how do you practice scales to get them fast? Really appreciate help.
