Bass line: Overture - George Duke (slow)

By request. I slowed the fast part down so everyone can see the notes that are played during Louis his fast riffs. Remember there's a lot of percussive 'deadnotes' as well being used... just add those to the main notes but be gentle. :-)

I was just wondering. Do you communicate with Louis about the exact notes that he is using or is this your ear-interpretation? I'm gonna try this myself at a quarter speed ;-)

@cirrusmajor Good question: I never discuss bass lines with Louis. We talk about music in general for sure but I never talk about his lines or any other bass players lines. So all is done by ear and for knowing Louis his style as far as he showed me in person. Good luck practicing and have fun(k)!!!

Peace
