Donna Lee (Hip-Hop).m4v

Hey Guys!

Here is my version of Charlie Parker's "Donna Lee". It's not perfect yet but I'm still working on it! The drum groove is a 32-bar loop I took from Billy Martin from his "Illy B Eats Volume One" CD. Hope you like it!

Wow ! Very intesting intro...liked it ! U play this song with such a great fluidity...amazing !!! And how did u give this fretless sound to your fretted bass??? Great work !

@Javic2112 thanks man!  i am using only the bridge pickup, and if you play with a strong attack with the right hand close to the bridge and a light touch on the left fretting hand you can get that jaco kind of sound. thanks for watching!

Nice dude! I dig it man. Check out mine if you get a chance, not as funky but you might like. Peace!

Pretty awesome soundin'. I looked up Donna Lee Hip Hop because this morning, in Jazz Ensemble at my school, we tried doing Donna Lee with a hip hop beat and it was just way too groovin. Out professor loved it so we're gonna do it like that tomorrow at our concert. If I can remember, I'll get a video of it and respond here. Glad we're no just the crazy ones modernizing old jazz charts. Btw, love that little ending. Keep it up!
