Here’s a video showing the bass guitar beginner how to play bass to What Does It Take (To Win Your Love) by Junior Walker.
This tune was a massive crossover hit for Junior Walker in 1969.
The bass line is built around a 2 bar pattern that shifts from a root note fo D to a root note of C. There are a couple of variations to the pattern at the lead out of each section. I’ve split the video into two parts – there’s the Intro and there’s the verse.
This is a pretty easy bass line – but if you’re a beginner learning a bunch of songs is a great way of coming up against real world scenarios and solving them to improve your bass playing.
