Hey whats up, Im a noob bassist, I want to know what you are listening to. Im trying to expand my music a bit. Now my mp3 player is loaded with System of a Down, tons of Les and Primus, Rage against the machine/Audioslave and all the classics like Zepplin, Doors,Aerosmith, ACDC and stuff like that. (also loaded my mp3 player with some stuff im not real proud of because I like their basslines like The Cure, Kool and the Gang and Grand Funk Railroad.)
Im learning on a new fender jazz bass also have a friends pimp'd out fender p-bass.
Any good listening selections that could possibly even be playable? What are you listening to now?  |

As far as funk goes, Porcupine Tree's earlier material is pretty funky, I highly suggest that. |

Bought it a few days ago, I really haven't listened to this sort of music before, and I'm really digging it  |

You know, my band would always be willing to support them if they needed

-Nate | I'm a fan, but they are not really classic prog oriented at all. Maybe a very very slight Captain Beyond influence... but less proggy.
