Hey Bob, I hope you check these comments after your stream has ended. I just wanted to express how grateful I am for these videos you commit your time to sharing with us. It is my favorite resource for improving as a bassist since practicing on my own, I often end up wandering somewhat aimlessly and spend a lot of time, not really improving. Your focused sessions really help me improve on concrete, useful techniques and provide a very implementable understanding of core aspects of playing the Bass. Having someone that knows what a real bassist should be for this genre, historically and can communicate it is invaluable. I often feel discouraged towards practicing because I feel that I'm not improving, until I find your videos and am inspired to pick up my bass and play along with your session, because you provide direction! And by the end, (after repeating some parts) I can hear tangible improvement in my ability to sit in as a jazz bassist that other musicians can enjoy playing with. So thank you more than words can say. I feel bad that your videos don't get the most views, as they should. This content is really helpful to any growing bassist that doesn't have the opportunity to take lessons with a master class bassist, as you are filling that gap out of the kindness of your heart and love for the instrument, which really carries through the video and makes me excited to be a part of it. So thanks again.
Thank you so much Cole! This means a lot to me to read this. -Bob
Hi Cole! Just checking in 10 months later... how's your progress going? Hope all is well 🙏
28:36 really nice phrase
Excellent lesson. Thanks!
Friendliest man on youtube?
Bass player version of bob Ross?
Lol! Thanks Conor. -Bob
@@dexterjones4902 haha!
@@dexterjones4902 lol. The 'Bob Ross of Bass' ... is that what you're saying? Lol
@@bobdeboo8549 that is exactly what I'm saying 👏...
Love your stuff bro x
Thank you for great lesson 👌
These thought out guided practice sessions are saving my life! And it's exactly at the right level of engagement that my adhd brain does not want to wander away. Please keep doing them!
thanks so much! I've stepped back a bit from these, but am interested in getting them going again more regularly. Thank you for watching and for your comment. Peace, Bob
I've been a "root" walking bass player for almost fifteen years. It surprises me to see how often it's left out entirely in these examples. I look forward to practicing with that in mind and improving the sound of my lines.
Roots are good too for sure Paul!

Dude you are a great bass player and a cool guy
Thanks! You’re cool for watching 🙂
this video has so MUCH VALUE, amazing work, thank you so much
Thank you Milo! Glad you dig it : )
Brand new here & to Double Bass .. I'm old 😪 and as a rock/ pop Bass player always found walking Basslines an absolute NO NO ...total brain freeze ...but Sir -- The Paul Chambers box set of CDs 💿 in my Landrover are utterly beautiful.
Your lessons here are Concise Inspired & interesting. Maybe there's hope for me yet.

As bass player who’s been trapped in “start at the root” purgatory for way too long.... mastering this as a 2 feel first, before jumping into the walking bass line.... such a simple but really, really effective approach. Thank you!
Great to hear Dave! Glad you've found the approach helpful. How's your practice going?
Guide tone Two Feel is Dope! You’re Killing it Bob!🤩🎶💯
Thanks Carl! -Bob
Chambers was beyond a phenomenal beast!!!!
Indeed!!!!
Mr PC 🥹 I think Bob should change his first name to Boo 🥹
haha! Now THAT would be something 😅
Wow, what a great double bass lesson. I'm not a bassist but I'm learning something great about the Bebop language. Thanks.
An old trick to avoid blisters is to use New-Skin when you first feel them forming. You'll thank me for this.
Great lessons ,TY! Inotice PC does this cross string ,almost turnaround lines in his walking ..'If I Were A Bell ' comes to mind...love it if you can explore crossing strings ,not so much shifting In a lesson ! Thnx J Pz
wow, you are a great teacher and player. thank you for these videos!
Thank you! -Bob
Question. I’m not sure if we will ever know this but I have always wondered something about Paul chambers and many of the upright players. We all know that jazz is improvised music. Do you think Paul wrote these lines out before he played them? Or is it the type of thing where he was playing this music all the time so it just flowed out subconsciously
Great presentation Bob. I love your sound and methodical approach. Dizzy Atmosphere was in Ab with the great Slam Stewart on bass
Thank you Paul! Really appreciate it and thanks for the comment. Slam Stewart!!! Woo
Chambers is the best
Great lesson ! some kind of systematical approach that let you choose what your ears like better. Some solution sounds, some not ...
Thanks Bob! A very inspirational course.
Thanks Eric! -Bob
Thanks for allowing me to sit in class bro!
Thanks for joining me Lloyd!
@@bobdeboo8549 Sure thing Bob!
Thanks Bob. I am (Raul Robinson) from Facebook. Gracias.! This is really cool structure to follow. I will be working on it..♫♪♫.♫ Monday, January 25th.,2021
Hi Raul! Glad to see you here as well. Happy Practicing my friend -Bob
Got some ideas from this. Some of these lines are simple, yet so effective.
Glad to hear it Hubert!
challenge : make a bass line only ascending or descending !
Thank you kindly
Thank you Earthling!! : )
Hello
Here David the great
53:27 for four measures? 😁, just joking, thanks
LOL....right?! My pleasure
the tune you hummed was kenny dorham straight ahead and it is in Ab!
Yes! Thank you Zach. I was blanking on that for days afterwards. Lol -bob
Wouldn't your note choices be dependent on what the soloist is playing?
thanks for watching. absolutely right! ...and the soloist's lines would be correlated to the bass lines we're playing as well. This is more like off-season training in prep for going on the field.
Thank you so much
From PARIS
Merci Stephane : )
👍
That bass looks so awesome. I love all the scratches where he plucks the strings.
it's super crucial to understand that in Bb, G7 is not a "VI" but "V/II". VI would be just Gm
Yes indeed!
Beautiful topic and execution
Thank you!
Paul Chambers is my most revered and studied jazz double bass player. Being a student of electric and just taking up the double bass a little over a year ago, I have gained a whole new appreciation for what he did with his instrument, in such a brief lifetime. This is definitely inspiring, as I embark upon my life-long journey to better bass playing.
Hey Bust a, so glad you are playing upright too, you might want to get a copy of the Evolving Bassist by Rufus Reid, it's excellent for working out material on the bass, I wore out the copy I had.
@@3340steve
Thanks for the recommendation man. Will see if I can scrounge up a copy. Am also subscribing to your channel. Keep that upright stuff comin'!👍
Such an excellent teacher and lesson- wish I had this years back
Thank you for watching and for the lovely comment! Happy Practicing -Bob
Thanksss @open studio for sharing this beautiful video!
well done!
thank you! 🙏
I really love this Hampton Hawes version with Red Mitchell on bass. Lovely basslines at 1:45.

If you could, at some point, take this to soloing on the changes that would be great. I'm not bad at stringing some ok walking lines together but always screw up trying to solo. Even at slower tempos.
Thanks for watching Stephen. There's a great video up on Open Studio's channel about soloing on Oleo, check it out... but I'll keep the idea in mind for a bass player version too! 🙏
@@bobdeboo8549 Thanks Bob, I will check that out. Your videos are now my goto lessons. You are really nailing the stuff that needs working on to improve. Thank you for making so much of it free on UA-cam. Every so often I look at who I think has helped me a lot (with Bass playing and computer programming) and purchase something from them by way of saying thanks. I hope to be able to do that with you/Open Studio very soon.
@@Steviec63 thanks so much Stephen!
For me there's something special when the bassist is using lots of chromatic approach tones and I'm playing altered dominants and Tritone substitutions not just on Rhythm changes. I mean we're entering this higher echelon of chromatic density especially on some standards.
This is a nice refresher course for me as I haven't played rhythm changes in a long time. Too bad however that I was unable to get the PDF. I tried about 4 times, subscribed of course, checked spam folder, nada. Used different email addresses too. Maybe the computers have Sunday off?
Hi Bill. Hey, my apologies for not seeing this until now. I don't know why that happened, but if you are still interested then please send me an email at bob@openstudiojazz.com and I'll send you the pdf myself. Thanks for checking out the sessions! -Bob
I can’t seem to download the pdf @7th june 2022
very helpful thank you!
Thank you Pat!
Bon soir monsieur, un grand merci pour cette vidéo , vous avez gagner un abonné
Excellent work as always Bob... Thank you for doing this
Honestly the best music lesson i've seen on youtube.
Excellent ! What do you program your drum track to?
@@MrThepopopopo Merci beaucoup !
Yep. Drum Genius is what I'm using for these sessions. Thanks Blaise - Bob
For new bassists can you explain the fingering?
