Bass lines for "Blues en Mineur"

Twelve-bar blues in G minor. This is Frank Anastasio's opening chorus on the superlative "Gypsy Guitars" with Angelo Debarre and Serge Camps. Simple and clear:

As things start to heat up, Anastasio provides a nice walking line to increase the energy -- but when Angelo starts burning full throttle, Frank lays back with half-notes and some transitional quarters, the better to let Angelo burn in all his glory. Class-act bass playing, all the way through.

BTW, that a-flat in bar eight is delayed a little and gets a hard accent.

    Woops, sorry: the a-flat is rushed, not delayed.

    You're welcome, shredfusion. I'm glad someone finds them useful. I think the next sort of tune I'll work on will be a valse -- maybe "Valse des Niglos"? Let me know if you have any requests.
