Written in standard notation and TAB.

I've attempted to compile a cross-section of Duck's work, mostly of his work at Stax and some for the above mentioned artists, as well. Some of these transcriptions are rather lengthy so that the reader may more fully understand Duck's playing style, since he often does not repeat himself as he plays through an arrangement. As with any book of this nature, the reader is encouraged to study these recordings, but, more importantly, enjoy them.

Duck and the soulful and economical sound of the M.G.'s have left an indelible imprint on the sound of popular music and should be an inspiration to rhythm sections everywhere. Fortunately, Duck still remains active touring and recording. He can be heard with artists such as the Blues Brothers, Neil Young and Booker T. & the M.G.'s. Hopefully, we'll be hearing Duck's unmistakable sound and feel for years to come.

CLASSIC FUNK AND R&B GROOVES FOR BASS
101 examples of Funk and R&B lines. There are no 'exercises,' only actual bass grooves. Classic Funk and R&B Grooves does cover techniques and concepts, including the use of muted (ghost) notes, string raking, vibrato, syncopation, and the use of non-scalar intervals such as octaves and dominant sevenths. Instead of putting these to work in drills, though, the player goes straight into grooving. Call it instruction by osmosis, if you will, but bear in mind that the great funk bassists learned to play this way. If you study enough vocabulary, and use it in a real setting, you learn the language. Every bass groove you find here was played and recorded first in real-time jams with living, breathing drummers, then transcribed later. By contrast, most instruction books are written first, and the musical examples are played to a drum machine. It’s critical to the spirit of this book/CD package that live drums are used throughout, and you’ll feel the difference from the first track. Written in standard notation and TAB. 36 pages.
