Includes exercises to enhance the playing of chord changes and bass lines, plus bass solos that illustrate specific styles including walking blues, jazz swing, and bossa nova. This book teaches guitarists how to play chords and bass lines simultaneously while providing insight to bass line construction. For this, we will consider a very played tune in jam sessions (not the most beautiful piece of Latin music in my opinion): “BLUE BOSSA” And we will interpret it in different Latin styles.
THE LATIN BASSLINES The goal is not to become a specialist in Latin basslines, but simply to learn a few, those that most of you may have to play.
