djrmusicdude Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 (edited) Hi, I'm David and I've been playing bass (Ibanez SR300L) for a a couple of months, the amp is a Marshall MB/B series30. My other musical interests are keyboards, which I've been playing since I was about seven years old and guitar, which I first started to play when I was about thirteen but only really took it up seriously last year when I discovered that at long last there were books for left handed players and chord charts now put fingering on them. My musical interests range from Blues to Rock to Experimental. I keep meaning to start composing my own music, I've got all the gear (sometimes I think I live in a music shop!) so I'm going to make the effort this year and get down to it. My favorite bands are Pink Floyd, Yes and Dream Theater but I listen to a wide range of music, (Beatles, Stones, Santana, Who, Frank Zappa, Animals as Leaders, BB King, Kenny Wayne Shepherd to modern 'serious' composers; guys like John Adams who knows how to use amplified or electronic instruments. My favorite bass player? it's got to be Jack Bruce. Edited January 30, 2012 by djrmusicdude Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Len_derby Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 Welcome David, hope you enjoy Basschat. +1 for Jack Bruce. A top musician who always 'goes for it' whatever he's doing. Have you read the book? 'Composing himself'? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
