Ed Friedland, from Bassplayer.com, has a new tutorial to offer. Check out this excerpt:

Blues You Can Use: Rhythmic Fun with the Shuffle

By ED FRIEDLAND - Wed, 30 Jan 2013

THIS MONTH, I’M GOING TO PRESENT SOMETHING very different. The examples shown here are not something I recommend you try to play on a blues gig - unless you want to get fired real quick! Instead, look at them as rhythmic training tools - the more control you have over the shuffle rhythm, the better you can do your job when it comes to playing it straight.

Now there are some approaches there that will twist your mind a bit! Takes concentration, but certainly will improve your ability to hear, and stay on the shuffle beat!
