Randy Crawford + The Crusaders - Street life [BASS COVER] - with notation and tabs

Such a funky tune. Thank you to Partron Mike for requesting it! It just sits so well in the groove...and the super jazzy chords in the bridge! This is a great one for anyone looking to improve their groove playing through some different and potentially more challenging keys. That bridge will getcha! But the final result is so good. Had a blast working on this one.

Enjoy, all.

Excellent job! One of my favorite bands of all time, The Crusaders!

[timothyduggan]

The combination of tab and notation with the chords above as well is a really nice format. I wish all tabs were like this!

[mikesanders]

Spot on and with all the groove in the right places. Thanks for your contribution to the music world.

[JosephBranch-ei]

That was spot on man!!! Great tone and Very well done Sir!!!

[AlexandarShmex]

Such a difficult song, rhythm-wise. Thank you.

[dgege]

This song is so rhythmically difficult, you play it perfectly, excellent groove and sound,

[fingers]

Absolutely fabulous you covered Street Life, a true gem! The Crusaders are King of the Groove in all forms, pounding out so many LPs back in the day. Not to mention, the early Michael Franks' albums starring Joe Sample & company, cooking up those delicious studio dishes. This is a testament to you- that you are open to suggestions from your fan club and pulled this one out of your hat, thank you

[wildhog]

Good job buddy, I'm gonna watch more of your covers for sure!

[dessullivan]

Perfect format with chords, notes and tabs. A lot of work no doubt to arrange. Thanks.

[andreaoldofredi]

Hi Benny, your videos are always enjoyable, inspirational and very professional, many thanks for the time and efforts you put in them! I've got lots of new ideas about studying new songs watching your transcriptions, so continue with this service to the bass community!


I would like to suggest a couple of songs (actually the double of a couple): When last we spoke by Micheal Manring, Raices (Roots) by Richard Bona and Alfredo Rodriguez, Bright size life (the studio version with Jaco), and Free by Phish (from the album Billy Breathes, it contains tones of tasty licks)!


Cheers!

[JJDugan-ssoq]

Incredible! I learn so much by watching + reading. Converted drummer, so watch out!
