Dazed and Confused?! Rush?! are you crazy people? That guitar solo section on Dazed is pretty fast, and most Rush songs are quite complicated too.

yah i do agree rush is a tad complicated but my earliest band and i tore out la villa strangiato while i was just a fresh bassist of about 2 months. i can safely say it was the single biggest push i have ever on the bass and it propelled my ability to play in a huge way.

Bass player to learn from = John Paul Jones, Tim Bogart, Stu Hamm, Rossco Beck and Felix Pappalardi. WOW

That is a great way to start...I was only able to do Rush after about 3 years of playing. All I played before was Oasis
