Kirky Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 Just learnt Master Blaster. Played it live for the first time at Saturday's gig. The dep drummer did it at breakneck speed and I just laughed hysterically all the way through. [i]Almost[/i] nailed it! Also I Want You Back, which is great fun.

munkonthehill Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 the seeker by the who are you gonna go my way by lenny kravitz, however as we only have one guitarist i play the main riff with some distortion so that it fills the song nicely, so in actual fact i aint really playing the bassline at all hahahaha, owell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NickH Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 "L.A. Song" from the Angel TV show series - although there's about three chords in the whole thing so it wasn't tricky. Awesome song though, and suited my rather bleak mood last night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JTUK Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 Can't remember the last line I had to learn... I normally just take the jist of it and make it fit. I am never looking to rip a part off anyway.. and don't expect the rest of the guys to do that either.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattM Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 'European Son' by Japan. Having recently got into fretless after 25 years of fretted, may as well start with the old Karn classics... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Veils Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 Well I did a set for a wedding yesterday and we pretty much learned the tunes on the day, so I think the last one was for Beating Heart Baby by Head Automatica. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kets Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 I don't generally learn basslines note for note, but last decided to learn a couple of classics: Green Flower Street and Ruby Baby, both by Donald Fagen from "Nightfly". I think it's 'cos I was watching Steely Dan on Youtube! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
