Playing with only the bass is a challenge.

You have a very good guitar technique.
Sometimes I get the impression that this technical ease causes minimal loss of time.
...but I can be wrong.Maybe these are the charms of playing with a static backing track.
Anyway You play a lot of beautifull jazz lines with great jazz sound.

I have been practicing Solar chords for over a dozen years.
Every day when I wake up I want to practice - play this piece on a classical guitar.
I never felt bored.
Whenever I play it, new ideas come to me.
A brilliant composition with great educational potential.

Well, i know this is a guitar site, but... i went for it on the bass.
Ibby GSRM20B WN-F (the model number is bigger than the bass, which is short scale; less than 29").
About the same size as my Ibanez RG 421, actually...
i just call her 'MiKro'.

I liked that! Definitely suits the bass.

And here's another one with a good old Aebersold. I mixed the backing track lower because the piano is quite loud and busy, I would have liked more drums and bass and I didn't feel like dealing with the Stereo separation thing on Aebersolds.

Kris: Thanks for your kind words. Regarding my time drifting, in this case I think it's a function of playing while sleepy and the track. But in general, time keeping and staying with the form are things I'm trying to improve.
Ronstuff: none of those takes sounded especially busy to me. Great sound from the tele, as well.
Dogletnoir: bass sounds good and is always welcome.

We can observe that "Solar" energy is everywhere.

Well done, Peterson, I thought that was excellent. You've definitely got something. Very good lines. People don't realise how difficult it is to play like that, both fluidly and melodically. Not a bum note anywhere.
Keep going! Just takes a little more confidence in your abilities and bingo, you'll have it sown up. Not this tune specifically, but jazz guitar playing. Nice work.
