Alfred Releases Steve Bailey's <em>Rock Bass</em> Book/CD Set

Alfred is pleased to introduce an all-new rock bass workout designed to develop technique and skill for bass players everywhere!

Steve Bailey's Rock Bass offers one of the most comprehensive bass technique methods available. Infamous bassist Steve Bailey is a pioneer in his field, known for his expertise with the six-string fretless bass, an instrument he's been playing since childhood.

Rock Bass offers exercises which have both studio and live-playing applications, and covers an array of topics from hand dexterity to bass line construction, from double stops to chords. The book will help any bassist develop the necessary technique to produce quality records, as well as the technical dexterity to rock out any show. Other topics include developing right-hand alternation, advanced eighth-note patterns, Finger "Buster" and "Hazard" exercises, developing solid time, and playing odd-note groupings. Plus, the included CD features examples of songs and exercises from the book. Rock Bass is now available as a book and CD set for $16.95.
