Learn to Read

So I finally started my "Learn To Read" project last night.  I'm going to try to keep it simple.  It's based on Marcus Miller's statement about dovoting three months to learning to read.  I am going to try to do at least 30 minutes before bed every night.  I almost always surf YouTube looking at music clips, so this will be a more productive use of time.

My method is to use Ed Friedland's Hal Leonard bass books; copy the exercises in my own hand and then read them over and over again.  That part is based on something I heard Anthony Wellington say; he recommends WRITING music as a way to learn to read it. 



And here's the Marcus Miller interview that inspired me:
