James: While vacationing last week in The Villages of Florida from my home in Maryland, I was taken to a bar called McCall's which featured a fabulous house blues band. Two guitars, bass, drums, Hammond organ, two sax players and a harmonica. They played beneath statues of Jake and Elwood blues just to punctuate the point. Anyway it was open mic night, and I volunteered on bass (or was volunteered, as it were). We ran through a set (Stand by Me, One Way Out, Stormy Monday, Low Rider) and then they closed with Sweet Home Chicago. I never played this number before but I just happened to have watched this video a few weeks prior and loved the variations you presented. As such, I was able to count it in and it really cooked. Thanks for the primer, and for allowing me to hold my own with some damn good blues players down in Florida.

WOW man. I’ve played bass rock and metal Style since 1985. I like the blues and love the blues brothers and although I don’t know how to play any blues style bass lines by the end of your video I feel confident I could play this with a band with more experience in this blues style. I’m self taught and a slow learner. I’ve never tried to play this style before. Your lesson was just the right amount of info and playing for me. I had to rewind a few times and listen again but you teaching got me up to speed. Thank you. I subscribed and look forward exploring other bass techniques on your channel CHEERS!

Open root notes is one of the things that moved me to 5 string.

I would always play the turnaround on the E just feels more natural and sounds a little fatter... plus allows you to bang a few open E-B’s at the end of it...
