Jul 16, 2011 - He called it "The Lesson" because he wrote it as part of his book, The Music Lesson. I learned that when I attended his bass clinic with Steve Bailey. He's such a great guy in person, and when he talks, he just leaves you in awe. Then of course he plays bass and you're like :O.... My bass teacher actually got up to go onstage and play with him, because he actually get's lessons from Steve. So in a way, I got taught by Steve Bailey :D.... Anyways... yeah.
