Just wondering what some of you feel are the the "funnest" and most recognizable bass lines. Lets put this at the most difficult level of "Around the World"'s bassline by Flea. I'm sure I'd love to play something like "My Name is Mud" by Claypool, but that's a bit out of my league.
I'll start. Funnest- Around the world, flea or
Lunchbox, Twiggy (Marilyn Manson)
Most recognizable- Longview, Greenday |

For me?
Peg - Steely Dan
Signed, Sealed, Delivered - Stevie Wonder
Eight Days A Week - Beatles
As you can see, none are particularly difficult (technically, although they are hard to nail correctly), they're just fun to play, and put a big fat smile on my face without fail. |

Maybe not very recognizable, but it's sure fun to play.
