The Gospel genre is probably the most versatile genre there is. In this clip we discuss the playing of the late great Joel Smith and how his style of bass playing fit with this iconic song “Don’t wait till the battle is over”.

Good morning Daric, HELP? I’m desperate to get into playing gospel bass. Would love to start with Living He Loved me (Glorious Day). Any way you can help would greatly appreciated. Thanks. Mikeyg

Thanks in advance Daric.
