I must be easily pleased , there are 100’s of beautiful bass lines out there .
When the venue is heaving , the drummer sober and on time , the guitarist is playing beautifully and the singer is belting out the tunes , I will give each bass line 110 % in effort , timing and punctuation. That’s when I close my eyes , tilt my head back , and get sucked into that beautiful whirlpool of becoming part of the song / band .
The more effort / emotion you put into even a simple bass line , the more it will reward you .
