I have just worked through your new video for playing back up to “The Girl I Left Behind Me” which I really enjoyed.
I was just wondering , there must be a formula for the notes played as back up. Is there one?? is it easy to understand. I mean, there must be some reason why you choose the notes. Is it that you choose a note in the chord ? In Bar 2 the chord is G, and the bass notes are G and D , both of which are in the chord of G so that’s understandable. But in Bar 3 chord is Am the Bass notes are E and B. I assume there must be a connection.
I am trying to understand, so that hopefully I could apply it to other tunes, Jason, but its hard work at 66 !!
