Pick’s Transcription Workshop: Bass Solo Transcription of Jimmy Johnson on a Tune Called “Panic Station”

Meet Lucas Pickford
I’ve always loved this solo by the totally under rated but totally amazing bassist Jimmy Johnson. Jimmy’s main gig is with James Taylor but he’s also been part of Allan Holdsworth’s group for 25 years or so. Jimmy rarely solos, not because he can’t, he’s just usually playing some of the best bass lines behind whoever he’s playing with. This rare solo by Jimmy is from a Holdsworth classic CD called ‘Metal Fatigue’. Dig Jimmy’s use of 6ths in this short but beautiful, melodic solo.
