    This one is probably the hardest cover in a while, beautiful stuff. I did my best at transcribing and opting for the more suitable positions. Still not quite happy. Check out Nate Watts, definitely and Stevie Wonder of course. Let me know if you have questions.

    This is outstanding! For those of you who are unfamiliar, this is the "short" version of Do I Do. The one on the original album is like 11 minutes and it features even more ridiculous Watts licks, a random trumpet solo from Dizzy Gillespie no less and then it ends with Stevie trying to rap.

      @rubencornelissen2971 4 роки тому +15

      I read that Stevie slammed a car door against his hand, injuring his index finger, and therefore he learned to play with his other fingers too, playing with 3 fingers when his index finger was healed 😁

      Isn’t that James Jamerson on the record? I thought it he played with his index finger only... that’s why they called him “the hook”! Incredible how he managed to play bass lines like this with only one finger

    This is incredible as always. I call you "The Hero of the People" when I use your videos while giving bass lessons. Any chance you also have a transcription/performance of "All I Do?" Definitely the less bass-centric of the Stevie "I Do's" (but still insane) but whenever I search up resources for All I Do, I mostly find Do I Do stuff. There's like one video of a dude trying to explain it and then one pretty good staff music transcription, but no tab or performances.

      los acordes estan transportados para que sea mas facil asociarlos a la posicion en que estas, por tanto tienes que solo pensar que estas en C como si no estuvieses afinado distinto. Se usa mucho en instrumentos transportados para que sea facil leer
