Best Bass Tab Ever!!

How could nobody possibly mention the main bassline of Mr. Bungle's "Dead Goon"?

It's flat-out disgusting how difficult that is to play.

Take a look. Hope you can read music.
 
There is one in a back issue of Bass Player. I'm not sure which issue, I'll look that up.

My vote is still for Dead Goon.
Although Teen Town made me pee my pants the first time I heard it. Okay, that's not true.

That's is probably why. Many people can't figure it out with his tab. lol

He is touring in Europe right now and will be recording sessions for Tomahawk's new album when he gets back. It should be badass.
 
Let's revive this thread. I don't know the OP's musical taste, I'll mix my opinions through various genres:

VERY/EASY/INTERMEDIATE:
- Go your own way, by Fleetwood Mac (The Chain has a very nice riff, but overall the song has a very minimalistic bass part)
- Seven Nation Army, by The White Stripes
- Money, by Pink Floyd
- Lovecats, by The Cure (fun rhythm)
- Born to be wild, by Steppenwolf
- Love her madly, by The Doors (a bluesy bass line with lots of fillers that you can remove to make it as easy as you want)
- Road Trippin', by RHCP
- More than a feeling, by Boston
- Smooth operator, by Sade (quite a bit to memorize, not very difficult really)

MORE ADVANCED:
- Roundabout, by Yes
- Can't stop, by RHCP (only "Advanced" because it's slapped and popped
- YYX, by Rush (like Valerus said...priceless...and very difficult)
- Anything by Dream Theater
