Just starting to investigate the possibilities of acoustic bass… A very nice start I must say… I’m interested in hearing a blues approach on this instrument.. the sound is very earthy… I love this improv by the way…

I ws like Key Change? OHH that key change. LOL Almost the end of the song.

I am cursed ever since I learned what a key change sounds like they jump out at me in music. Will be chilling with friends spinning some tunes. I will just blurt out “key change” with out even thinking. Usually a very awkward social situation will follow:)
