Jonathan Richards
Acoustic Bass Solo on
My Anguish In Solidarity

About

Jonathan Richards closes out the solos on acoustic bass with two choruses, following Josh Nelson at approximately 233 BPM. Set within a straight feel, the 16-bar 16-Bar form and the key of E♭, the solo navigates the chord changes with purpose. Coming last in the solo order, Richards has the task of building on everything that came before while steering the performance back toward the closing head. Bassist Jonathan Richards follows with a two-chorus acoustic bass solo, notably performed in E-flat at a slightly reduced but still formidable 233 BPM, suggesting a modulation or key change within the piece's structure.

Jonathan Richards was 34 to 35 years old at the time.
