tommorichards Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 Im looking for some nice tracks to play featuring these guys, preferably around the 70's era as i want to play more hard rock style stuff. Any help is appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul_5 Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 JPJ's playing on 'The Lemon Song' (Led Zep II) is a masterclass on 3 chords, in fact, all of zeppelin II is worth learning. Someone else will have to recommend some of Geezer's stuff as I can't get past Ozzy's voice, and consequently don't have any Sabbath.

PURPOLARIS Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 Fairies Wear Boots has some nice bass in it as well as Iron Man. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ou7shined Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 Geezer is pretty much my original inspiration as a bass player. Check out Hand of Doom - plenty of dynamics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FelixGubbins Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 for JPJ I'd have to say Black Dog or Dazed and Cinfused, and Sabbath I'd say Behind the Wall of Sleep, through the bass solo, to N.I.B. These are just for starters, of course, as every track from both is a gem! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gary mac Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 I love JPJ's bass line on Ramble On. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bartelby Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 I recommend The Wizard and N.I.B for Geezer's baselines. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lozz196 Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 I was listening to Communication Breakdown in the car the other day, and I mean actually listening, rather than just hearing it, as am not a Zep fan to be honest, and I was knocked out by JPJs bassline. Incredibly melodic. Think I`ll have to have a re-visit on Led Zep. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GarethFlatlands Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 [quote name='gary mac' timestamp='1341646521' post='1722167'] I love JPJ's bass line on Ramble On. [/quote] +1. Really interesting and memorable line over what's bascially 2 chords. A soundcheck favourite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spongebob Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 Geezer-wise, I love 'All Moving Parts (Stand Still') from Technical Ecstasy. Bit funky! Don't forget - 'Junior's Eyes' from Never Say Die too - always love that. In fact, I love to jam with all the Sabs' 70's albums - loads of great stuff. Even though I probably am jamming some of it wrong! Great player, Geezer - never really gets the cred that many others, often unjustifiably, do.

Gust0o Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 Into The Void is my personal favourite - though I now hear that line in so many others! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graham Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 War Pigs is a fun Sabbath track to play. Dazed And Confused is a good obey for PJ, gets your right hand strength up too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jones_Stuff Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 Black Sabbath's Snowblind - very melodic! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dannybuoy Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 Basically the first two Black Sabbath albums! Also if you get the deluxe versions there is a B-side Wicked World that has a brilliant bassline! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cosmo Valdemar Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 [quote name='dannybuoy' timestamp='1341733123' post='1723179'] Basically the first six Black Sabbath albums! [/quote] Fixed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
