John Goldsby
I've always admired the work of John Goldsby as the bass player of the WDR Big Band. And as soon as I knew that he had a course posted on TrueFire I got so excited. I've seen the extracts that TrueFire has posted on the YouTube channel and i think that it's an excellent course for all Upright and Fretless Bass players. The topics are really well explained and the charts and the audio files are really high-quality ones. I think it's a course that all bass players should buy.
