Beschreibung:
The double bass - the preferred bass instrument in popular music during the 1960s - was challenged and subsequently superseded by the advent of a new electric bass. Investigating the performance practice of the new, melodic role of the electric bass as it appeared (and disappeared) in the 1960s and 1970s, this book turns to the number one songs of the American Billboard Hot 100 charts between 1951 and 1982. Through interviews with players, numerous transcriptions - elaborations of twenty bass related features - are presented. These are juxtaposed with a critical study of four key players, who provide the case-studies for examining the performance practice of the melodic electric bass.
Part 1 Setting the Pace: Getting to the base of things. On popular music. The work. Part 2 The Melodic Electric Bass: Establishing Style as Performance: The bass in popular music. Style and genre. Details, features, and idiosyncrasies. Part 3 Toward a Performance Aesthetic: Studio bass vs. band bass. Artists, performance style, and aesthetics. On the decline? Wrapping up.
