Reggaebass Posted January 24 Posted January 24 Ive started this one a few times but never finished it all the way through, it’s a great Robbie Shakespeare Bassline, I’m trying with fingers but I think Robbie played it with his thumb, so I’m trying both ways at the moment Quote

Thor Posted January 25 Posted January 25 On 08/11/2025 at 12:29, Jolltax said: I've gone a bit disco lately amongst other things : Money by Pink Floyd, interesting time sig and is OK until you get to the boring guitar solos (like most PF tbh) Staying Alive by BeeGees, have isolated the bass and its not really what I was expecting, glad I haven't tried to wing it You should be Dancing by BeeGees Stomp! Brothers Johnson - its cool but on a five string muting is a challenge Sofa by Wolf Alice - they have lots of nice bass lines / parts (Beautifully Unconventional also v cool) Flesh for Fantasy by Billy Idol - love this, its not hard but its fun Been working on getting Queen 'Its a kind of Magic' accurate and up to speed, I feel like i need it in my back pocket I need to get some flares ..... Stomp - such a cool bass line👍🏻 Quote
FretsOnFire Posted January 25 Posted January 25 Brown eyed girl Surprisingly difficult to get the rhythm but worth it Quote
SteveXFR Posted January 25 Posted January 25 Floods by Pantera. Rex Brown must be one of the most under appreciated bassists. The bass groove behind Dimebags epic solo is just brilliant. There's nothing particularly hard to play but there's a lot to remember. Quote
bassbiscuits Posted January 25 Posted January 25 A whole bunch of classic Billy Joel songs. Some nice bass parts. I know very little about who the players are so will get googling… Quote

SteveXFR Posted 1 hour ago Posted 1 hour ago Currently learning how to play a bass part I wrote last year. I thought my playing had improved. I guess not. My hands don't want to move that fast anymore. Quote
Lee back Posted 38 minutes ago Posted 38 minutes ago I’ve been working on Teen Town by Weather Report mainly just for the challenge, and it’s doing exactly what I hoped. Quote
