I've just discovered Jim's channel today, this lesson is absolutely incredible, I felt so sad to discover Jim had passed when I read the comments, thank you Jim R.I.P

We all realize Jim is gone now, but his work and absolutely love for all things Bass lives one so keep the comments coming. I have yet to see anyone who demonstrates as much joy and enthusiasm with the bass after investing so many decades in it...his teaching style helps me abundantly! Growing-up in church, we sang a familiar song in times like these: “May The Work I’ve Done, Speak for Me”. Be well brothers and sisters...Peace.

I know you are not here with us the same way you were, but I still enjoy a Sunday morning working with you.

This and RBL230 are timeless gold … and thankyou Ray Brown for creating these magnificent blues lines. Two masters here.

You know when you have found a top shelf teacher when they will show their mistakes! I can not say thank you enough for giving so much of your time & knowledge on this channel. You have another follower for life.

My music mentor and bandmate Mace Williams, was a big Oscar Peterson and Ray Brown fan. He taught me many of these types of blues walks. Great that you're sharing this info.

Two days in and I'm only up to 7:39 but I'm lovin it. It's a beautiful line. Thanks Jim.

[johnhinkleman]

Thanks so much man, you reinvigorated my love for the bass!

[richardfisher]

Awesome. I'm trying to loop this one with the P Chamber's Bb line you taught a while ago. That way I can just groove on Bb for a while. Thanks Jim. By the way, really digging your "Jazz Bass Walk & Run" book. Keepin busy.

[boogie]

I learned this awesome line in Bb and I found it very cool to play in A too. Which key should I learn next? Maybe in G? E? 😉
