As fir basslines,I'm twiddlin' along to I want you back,the David Ruffin version and Aint that good news from the Les Paul and friends album.

Cool riff with the right bass sound[/quote] A lot of people think i'm insane, but i still say that song invented stoner/blues/psychadelic rock, It's quite simple, repetitive, got that huge bass groove running right down the middle, it just rewminds me a lot of early sabbath/blue cheer/hawkwind, maybe it's just me. Anywho, to actually contribue to the thread, i just finally got down "Here's to life" by streetlight manifesto, took long enough. If you've never listened to it, do. A lot of people say the bassline is a lot of showing off and trying too hard, but i think it first perfectly to the song, and it captured perfectly the essence of ska Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

faz_man Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 (edited) Spandau Ballet - Gold!!!! HA! Simple as but its really low in the mix. And to balance it out I'm learning.. Victor Wootten - Can't Hold No Groove.. Just one of those I guess - you like the slappity, tappity goodness then I think its a kinda unwritten rule that you have to learn this. (hopefully I'll regain any respect I lost with this lol!) Edited January 31, 2009 by faz_man Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PURPOLARIS Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 We used to do Hey there Delilah when we were doing covers. It's sounds great with the bass added.
