| | |  List Of Classic Songs with Classic Bass Lines
Sign in to disble this ad
Theres a lot of classic songs known by their bass lines, those you can recognize inmediately when you heard them from the distance...ie: intro on sweet child of mine, queen's Another one bites the dust...or...whatever...
So, as a begginer, i was thinking: "damn...i need a list with that kind of songs"...
any help? my excuses if this has been asked before.  |

Others that come to mind:
"Roundabout" - Yes (we could list a LOT of Yes in this thread)
"Pump It Up" - Elvis Costello
"What Is and What Should Never Be" - Led Zeppelin
"Come Together" - Beatles
"Rock On" - David Essex
"I Just Want To Bang On The Drum" - Todd Rundgren
"In the Meantime" - Space Hog
