    It's very impressive how you put into words something that is almost only ever taught as "feel". That's some great communication/teaching.

      Thank you, that comment means a lot. I obsess over that and watch my students closely! Also had good teachers myself

      And then people will tell you the way to learn the feel is an obsessive amount of listening. I much prefer this method!
      This is even more apparent on the upright with the noise from string release and dampening.

    Thank you very much. I have been using the long legato version for a long time when playing jazz. But I will use your short version of walking bass line when it is appropriate as you mentioned. Why it took so long for me to learn about this. Thank you again.

      Happy to hear it inspired, Sung! And Yes, it is not often talked about. Enjoy your new-found phrasing variety! Let me know how it is received. I hope it makes your drummer smile, too

    You should reconsider your picking/Plucking Hand Position. For Jazz it's recommended, best to have it closer to the kneck and even on the kneck. After all Electric Bass isn't all that close to the Upright Bass/Double Bass. Not counting Electric Upright Bass

      oh there is so much more that could be said about phrasing and sounding jazzy and 2 and 4 etc. Yes you are def right, but my focus was on the rhythmic aspects. But 100 percent agree! Thank you for watching, Chelsea!

    I'm sorry but it doesnt swing at all that way. Just listen to any actual jazz recording with walking bass lines: the notes are held to their full value pretty much all the time.

      Might want to watch all the way to the end before you comment, see what I say at 4:36 in the video. I suggest you think a little bigger - one type of phrasing (legato as you wanna hear it it seems) isn't the only option. Think in more musical terms. Yeah, sorry is adequate because you are wrong.

      Hear, Hear. Tell, oh wise Spam man, what are "actual" Jazz recordings? Are there non-actual ones? Did you ever listen to any old (as in before 1950) Jazz/swing recordings? Get actual, man. Anyways, you obviously did not understand what this lesson is about and feel the need to make this public. And you're wrong.
