Learning to play “Ain’t Misbehavin”:
- We often think of the Stride Groove as being an older jazz style . . . but, it can also be played in a more modern jazz style. There are lots of tunes in the Stride Jazz Style.
- Start with playing through “Ain’t Misbehavin'” using a Bass Line in 2-beat Stride Style. Use “lead-ins” in the bass. Emulate what a bassist would play. Sing the melody while playing the bass note.
- Can use 10ths, 6ths and 3rds-7ths (tritone) in the bass.
