Learn I Wish (Stevie Wonder) On Bass Guitar – Technique/Key/How To Memorise

In this video lesson, I break down Nate Watts' great bass line on I Wish by Stevie Wonder. Songs In The Key of Life is one of the best albums ever written; full of incredible songs and bass lines. Have a listen as soon as you can (scroll down)!

If you ever get a chance to play this live, it's a good idea to learn the horn ending on this version. Lots of bands use this one.


Songs In The Key Of Life

This is one of a handful of albums where every song exists on a heavenly level. There's no weak link!

Make sure you learn as many songs, riffs, and grooves as you can. The lessons below will help you out.
