'This is a great book for any bass player who isn't new to the instrument and wants to continue exploring the versatility of the bass. The format of the book is useful with in depth sections for each of the 20 greatest bass players featured in the book. These sections include the gear they would have played, advice for what tone to use and tips on how to perform each piece. No matter what style of music you play this book is well worth buying because it includes many different genres of music e.g. Motown, Rock, Funk, Metal.

As well as this many tracks use different techniques of bass playing e.g. slap, strumming and tapping which are great for building up your technical skills as well as learning songs at the same time. Some of the pieces in the book take some time to work at as they are technically tricky E.g. the slap line on the Mark King section or the fast 16th note solo in the Jaco section. But they are well worth working at as they are very satisfying to play once you have learnt them. Basically if you want to learn how to take your playing up to the next level, and learn loads of cool licks, fills and solos from the greatest bass players ever this book is for you.'
