Description:
The role of the bass in Latin music is primarily to hold down the rhythmic and harmonic foundation of the tune. To the casual listener there is certainly a lot of repetition in most Latin bass lines. But if you listen closely you'll usually find a myriad of subtle variations that give the music an extra kick with without destroying the underlying groove. This book will show you how that is done.
"The Latin Bass Book" contains the most comprehensive study ever published of the main Afro-Cuban and Brazilian styles of bass playing, as well as shorter sections on other Caribbean and Latin American styles and also Latin jazz bass playing.
