Walking Measures 7-8 of a B flat Scale for Advanced Bass Guitar

So here we are, at our seventh and eighth measures and we have our five minor to our one seventh. And I'm going to show you how to walk those right now. First we're going to take our minor scale we learned and we're going to move it up a fret to F, our, our four chord, or our five chord, so F is right here. Right? On the eighth fret and then we're going to have and again our three notes are going to be the same as the three frets here. So we have eight, ten, seven, eight, ten, right? And then below we got eight, or, yeah eight, six, ten, eight, six. That's your F minor chord and then for your B flat seventh chord, we're just going to take the seventh degree of the scale, one, two, three, four, five, six, seven and lower it down a note, flat. So a seventh chord just basically has a flat seven in it, so now we have our new scale. Six, eight, ten, six, eight, ten, six eight, ten and then you can keep going up. So if we walk those two scales we've got our F minor to B flat seven. F minor, B flat seven. And that leads to our E flat, which is our next chord which we're about to go over in just a minute.
