Although I have classical training, as a beginning jazz player and buddin=
g =
electric bassist I have a lot of questions so I hope my naivet=E9 doesn't=
bother =
anyone.
Today's question is this: I understand these chord substitutions, more o=
r =
less, and how they allow the player to change or enhance the harmonic col=
or of =
the piece, but as a bass player, if the other musicians are doing these =
substitutions, do I have to *know* what they're doing, or will it sound O=
K if =
I keep playing the published chords? Or do folks get together before the=
gig =
and exchange substituted lead sheets?
