Very cool. There's something to be said about taking a mundane exercise and making it fun.

VERY nice! This also points out how some old things that you may never ever thought of actually have a cool bassline actually does.

well that particular piece is so old, I'm sure the original was probably written on an upright, but the version I used was the "newer" more modern sounding version. ( but to me it still sounds like they used a fretless )

thanks for the kind words nukEm

Do you just not have any right handed basses?

EDIT: Oh, I'm retarded. Nevermind.

although the bassline is clear, and I could do this very easily, let's keep the cartoon covers to theme songs only m-kay?

playing 1940's and 50's cartoon upright bass riffs are ok, but really not what I like to do.... and one of my alltime favorites BuckRogersInThe25thCentury, is patrolled by the youtube NAZI's, and I can't do it because they will block it. I did the music when Princess Ardala and Buck was dancing on the Draconia Flagship, and 3 days later it was blocked for audio content.

SPACE DISCO DANCING----the BEST!!!!

Cool I am old enough to have grown up watching the Jetsons during their original run - funny thing is my Son loves the show now and it was one of my favorites back in the day - coolness!

I NEVER THOUGHT I WOULD GET SUCH A POSITIVE REACTION FROM DOING THEM EITHER, and NO I love metal a lot more, and that is what I have generally played thru my years of jamming.

so far I have speedracer,jetsons,wonderwoman,electricCompany,
spider-man, and teamAmerica...with more to come soon.

Good job man. I've been do something like this for awhile, but just never got around to it. Glad someone's out there doing some really good cartoon theme song covers!

thanks again guys, yes cartoon/t.v. show themes, are not my first love, but there are thousands that actually have a good bassline in them, and like the title of the thread says...noone else does them.

( and I don't mean SeinFeld ), I'm talking about 30's40's50's60's70's cartoon themes especially, as a lot of them were done with a full orchestra in the background...

I hope a LOT of the TB members see this thread, and I start a trend, because there I know there are a lot of you all out here who can easily play that stuff by ear as I do, and I would LOVE to see others do it as well....
