This month I transcribed and memorized a Larry Grenadier solo on the tune Great Day.
Part 1
I did this tune as I love the bluesy 16th straight approach. This is a part of my playing I want to improve on. Besides transcribing it I would play along with grooves and try to get the same feel happening. It is slow but coming along I think.
Part 2
I am also continuing to play Jan. and Feb. solos everyday from memory with recording. My goal is to see if playing them everyday internalizes the vocabulary even if it only comes out during those tunes.
Taking some vocabulary from solos as well and moving it around.
Part 3
I have been getting together weekly with a friend at his studio to compose and record. Our goal is a song a week. We have been doing it for about 9 weeks now. We have been using Ableton Live. Usually after we finish he pieces it together with spit and glue to make it into more of a form. Eventually we will add keys (although some have keys) and vocals. This is my electric bass work out.
Here is a link to the demos so far.
