The Bassist's 23rd Psalm (Author Unknown)
The Lord is my drummer- I shall not rush.
He maketh me lay out in tasteful places. He leadeth me beside cool meter changes. He restoreth my "one."
He leadeth me in the right repeats, For His name's sake.
Yea, though I read through the trickiest roadmaps I will fear no train wrecks, for You are with it. Your ride and Your snare, they comfort me.
You setteth up a solo for me in the presence of mine guitarists. You annointeth my lines with drive. My groove overflows.
Surely good feel and swing will follow me all the tunes of each set. And I will dwell in the pocket the whole gig long.
Amen.
