hey i recently got an account on here I started playing bass in august and I know few song's Know I wanna be sedated, Foxy lady, sunshine of your love, jumping jack flash, and quiet thing no one ever knows ( learned that for a band me and friends put together). i know some riffs too, I know 12 bar blues and major and minor scales. i knowmajor scale in broken thirds too. Also some other things but i cant remember off the top of my head. I currently have a group of kids i jam with. But I am looking for suggestion on what songs i should play. or try and recommendations. I like led zeppelin, cream, the Beatles, The rolling stones, Jimi Hendrix, rush, yes, pink Floyd and others I don't like new rock thought.

Malignant Narcissism by Rush
Children of the Sea by Black Sabbath
War Pigs by Black Sabbath

plenty of beatles songs are fun as well, "Hello Goodbye" comes to mind.

OH and a classic, "Badge" by Cream.

Enjoy! and welcome to TB!
