What was the first bassline you learned?
I think my answer will be common:
Black Sabbath - Iron Man

"Louie Louie" is probably the most basic bass line mankind has ever invented and required knowledge for any bass player in the 60's.

| | | | One of my own. I'd just picked up the bass to play in a three piece noise rock band, after playing guitar for a couple of years. Some of the first basslines I made I actually still consider quiet good. A song called "Devalue" and a song called "On Foil", which of cause means nothing to you. Never practiced other peoples basslines. All though I have been considering picking it up lately, properly would be some Tool stuff.

| | | | A long time ago, but it was probably "My Generation". And I probably stopped playing it right before the solo. :-)
