daz Posted December 14, 2011 Posted December 14, 2011 (edited) [quote name='Doc B' timestamp='1209253060' post='186243'] For the past few days I've been unable to get Joy Division's 'Digital' out of my head - hypnotic bass and vocals. I mentioned this to my wife and she suggested putting the song on when we got home - so I dug out my Joy Division Substance CD (the first CD I ever bought). [/quote] [b]Digital [/b]is super hypnotic. I can play it for hours. It was one of the first riifs i learned, simple to play but powerfull. Seems a long time ago now, way back in December 2009. Which is nearly as old as this thread [media]http://youtu.be/tRnWYALFPCw[/media] Edited December 14, 2011 by daz Quote

musophilr Posted February 4, 2012 Posted February 4, 2012 [i]Breathless[/i] (Corrs) - audition for a party band on Wednesday. I'm still reading the part for Wonderful Land (got a book with proper dots in ) , and busking for other stuff like [i]Gimme All Your Lovin.[/i] Quote
chaypup Posted February 4, 2012 Posted February 4, 2012 Baby Huey's version of 'A change is gonna come' for a new band. Simple stuff but because it's in a slightly different time sig and reeeeeeeeeaaaalllllllyyyyyy slow it's quite tricky and I can't relax into it. Quote
discreet Posted February 4, 2012 Posted February 4, 2012 Canned Heat - Jamiroquai. It's for an audition, I'm [i]not[/i] a Jamiroquai fan! This song reinforces that opinion! Quote
BassBunny Posted February 5, 2012 Posted February 5, 2012 Boogie Down - Al Jarreau. Original is on Synth, so an intereting time learning it. Quote
Jayben Posted February 5, 2012 Posted February 5, 2012 Virtual Insanity by Jamiroquai.. Still trying to get the hang of the chorus, I'm not exactly brilliant at slap bass.. Quote
ezbass Posted February 5, 2012 Posted February 5, 2012 (edited) Kid Charlemagne (relearnt to be honest) and Go Your Own Way (surprisingly tiring when your 2 guitarists decide to trade solos for an extended outro). Edited February 5, 2012 by ezbass Quote

Is that what you play? Quote
