What are some basslines you never get tired of playing?


Here are some of mine...
To Defy the Laws of Tradition by Primus (once you figure out how to play it, since all the tabs online are partially wrong, it's really fun )
Tommy the Cat by Primus
My Name is Mud by Primus
Emerald Forest by V. Wooten & S. Bailey
I Shot the Sheriff by Bob Marley
Sinister Minister by Bela Fleck & the Fleckstones

Calm like a Bomb - RATM

And this other little riff that I came up with a while ago that I can't stop playing, it's simple but very fun... I really need to turn it into some sort of song

Walk on the Wild Side--Lou Reed.
It's not so much the line as the song. That song could last forever and it would still be cool.

anything from Paul Simon's Graceland...

Especially "You Can Call Me Al". Seems repetitive at first, but when you really listen to it there are so many little variations.
