Practice Pieces
Guide Tones and Walking Bass Lines, O My! Such an excellent practice piece for moving the bass note around on a great Bossa standard. Prelude to Blue Bossa in Eighth Notes, which will be about 39 pages long after transcription!

The beauty of this piece is not only a workout for lead development, but a bluesy test for comping skills as well.

Sweet and surprisingly subtle moves that achieve with ease. You know the possibilities are limitless if such a pleasing result can come from 4 simple chord changes.
