My third bass cover - what do you think?

I just love the fact you are doing it! You have the technical stuff down but repetition will allow your left hand to ease into the changes more fluidly. Lots of people talk about doing this or that, but rarely do it. You, on the other hand, are doing it and will no doubt see constantly better results from your efforts.

You're an inspiration to me & I've been doing this for over 40 years. By the way, my 1st band played Should I Stay or Should I Go.

Thank You so much 😊

You’ve gotten a lot of good advice. Just posting to amplify the message: keep doing it! You’re on the right path. And my first real band also played this song. It’s a classic!

Do you have a bass teacher, or are you self taught?

Do you ever play with the drummer on your you tube channel? You should post a video of that!

I had a teacher for first few months, then I had to quit lessons. Since then I am learning by myself. My sister play drums but we never had a chance to actually play together. Right now we are both learning the same song to record drum & bass cover for our YouTube channel. We are trying to figure it out how to record it from the technical side.
