I wasn't sure which category to put this is; mods move at your discretion.
What's your favorite bassline to play? Links to youtube or other streaming sites are encouraged! If it's something you've written, share it with us!
The one I haven't been able to stop playing lately is from "And The Beat Goes On" by The Whispers. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=slldMEPvUqA
Can't stop that funk! |

| | | | Gotta love Rock On. I don't play many covers, but I do occasionally play along with CDs or even the radio (to add randomness) as part of my rehearsal regimen. Here are a few good ones:
Sympathy for the Devil - Stones
I Want You (She's So Heavy) - Beatles
Closer to Home/I'm Your Captain - Grand Funk RR
In Memory of Elizabeth Reed - Allman Brothers
Starless - King Crimson |

| | | | "I Wish" - Stevie Wonder
"Proceed" - The Roots
"Get By" - Talib Kweli
"Tyrone" - Erykah Badu

NOT Les Claypool. I emphasize this because Les does this cover a bit, people think we wrote it. Les is amazing and does a grand cover in his own right though.
Love both versions |
