Blues, Basslines, Re-harm, Chords and Comping

In part 1, I am going to cover some of the most common requests that I have gotten from students. We will learn more about creating a walking bassline, how to form rootless chords and comp chords over that bassline. This approach makes it easier to learn many concepts over a form that you'll use again and again. In addition, you'll learn a new harmonization for the blues!

In part 2 of Blues, Basslines, Re-harm, Chords & Comping, we will cover 3 new blues variations. These new variations allow you to create numerous blues progressions of your own! These new variations will include tritone substitutions and other re-harmonization techniques. I will also cover the bassline fingering in detail.

A quick lesson on how to create a walking bassline.
