Comb-bound fundamental Latin Bass Patterns book and CD by Larry McCabe

Temporary fads come and go, but Latin music styles are a permanent fixture on the contemporary music scene.

Encompassing a wide range of regional styles from South America, Central America, Mexico, and the Caribbean, and often permeated with African or Spanish influences, Latin music has woven itself into all popular styles including rock, country, jazz, blues, and variety-band music.

Because Latin bass patterns are an important part of most popular musical styles, they are mandatory in the repertoire of all bass guitar players. This book contains 101 fundamental Latin-style bass patterns presented in a quick-access format.

The Latin bass patterns taught here are primarily played on the fundamental tones of the chord, which makes them technically accessible to the ambitious beginner. Early-intermediate players will also enjoy the wealth of simple but valuable ideas found here. The patterns can be played on both the electric and acoustic bass guitar.

Each pattern is written in tablature and standard notation, and recorded note-for-note at a moderate speed on the companion audio CD.

In addition to the generous number of one- and two-measure patterns in various time signatures, supplemental materials cover these additional topics: How to play variations, Intervals on the bass fingerboard, How to create variations for chord progressions, Chord progressions for practice.

This unique book is essential to any bass player learning the fundamentals. Prospective buyers are encouraged to use the Search Inside Book feature to examine the contents and music pages prior to purchase.

All this for a low price that is less than the cost of a single private music lesson.
