Forget Me Nots by "Ready" Freddie Washington - Bass Line Analysis (L#219)

Last Friday I released a riff analysis lesson of one of the best slap riff's of all time... "Hair" by the godfather of funk - Mr Larry Graham...

Well, the response from that lesson was simply off the chart... so, I thought I'd hit you with another EPIC slap riff!

In this lesson you're going to learn the bass line to "Forget Me Nots"... played by the legendary "Ready" Freddie Washington.

Like last week's lesson, this is another iconic slap bass riff and there's so much that can be learned from studying this great groove....

I show you the riff, break it down slowly, and then explain why and how the actual riff works, from a harmony perspective, so you can take this information and use it in your own slap riffs.

Ready to get your funk on? Let's do this!

As always, see you in the shed...

Scott :)
