Post by: phbrown on March 17, 2014, 09:27:19 PM
Walk With Me Lord - Bishop G. E. Patterson, "Singing The Old Time Way Vol 2", released Mar 28, 2006 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AGtdY0z4zOk#ws)

Any recommendations for fills or different turn arounds?

I basically do nothing ... i wonder if there are any bass youtube videos ....

Just listening, I would say, think 1-6-2-5-1 to start.  a little stuff in the middle, and then 3-4--5-6-2-5-1.  Don't need too many extra licks.  Just here and there.

He's not plaing it, but there's a place in the middle where you can throw a 1-3-5-6-8-6-5-3 in there.  He's playing another lick.

maybe the reason this song is difficult is because i am use to a faster more jazzy style

so i want to play more but you guys are right to play this version maybe I just need to chill out

I may check this out when I get home. You don't have to do much if you want the same feel.

Seems like the bass player is doing enough after listening. He throws in a few licks also. You do less than what he is playing?

Oh, I see what you mean, Ph.  You already had the basic progressions.  Personally(and I know it sounds larcenous) I would just break out my bass and copy and internalize the walk ups, hammer ons and walk downs he's doing and use them myself. You'd use them over and over when playing old traditional songs.
