steantval Posted June 29, 2008 Posted June 29, 2008 [size=4]Mr Big by Free.[/size] Ace groove plus a big bass solo in the middle. Quote
karlbbb Posted June 29, 2008 Posted June 29, 2008 I started to learn Courage and Attitude by Alien Ant Farm (Tye Zamora is an amazing player), but I'll have to wait till I get my 5 or 6 string to learn properly as theres a few low notes thrown in and its more hassle than it's worth to try and learn them in drop D. You should all learn these lines! Quote
Stag Posted June 29, 2008 Posted June 29, 2008 No One Knows by QOTSA - new band are doing it. My old Washburn has never been tuned down to C before, bless it! Doesnt know whats happened to itself! Quote
pete.young Posted June 29, 2008 Posted June 29, 2008 [quote name='Moose' post='219221' date='Jun 15 2008, 02:32 PM']Bring me to Life by Evanescence. [/quote] Yes, we have that one in our set. We also have My Immortal nailed, mainly thanks to have a brilliant keyboard player. What an extraordinary song. I've been working on 'It's my life' by No Doubt. Prolly a synth line originally but it falls nicely under the old fingers. Quote
Rich Posted July 1, 2008 Posted July 1, 2008 The Jacksons 'I Want You Back' and 'ABC'. Wonderful stuff! Quote
teen t-shirt Posted July 1, 2008 Posted July 1, 2008 Fall out boys beat it... cracking main riff.. Quote
Chris2112 Posted July 1, 2008 Posted July 1, 2008 Shocking that I've left it seven years, I know, but I've been working on [i]Continuum[/i] by Jaco Pastorius Quote
ahpook Posted July 1, 2008 Posted July 1, 2008 i need to get back into learning other people's basslines. Quote
EntropicLqd Posted July 2, 2008 Posted July 2, 2008 Lost Art of Keeping a Secret by QotSA. I say learned; I've got a good enough approximation to it that only another bassist would realise that I'm doing it wrong I'm currently working on learning Smooth by Santana and .... Rob Thomas I think. Great bass line. It's going to take me a while to get all the bits together. Hmmm, what else ... Long Road to Ruin springs to mind. There's a few others but those are the more interesting ones. Quote
alexclaber Posted July 2, 2008 Posted July 2, 2008 I spent some time on Havona at the end of last year. Am currently learning If You Want Me To Stay and Hit With Your Rhythm Stick. I have to sing lead on both so it's an interesting challenge... Alex Quote
KevB Posted July 2, 2008 Posted July 2, 2008 After hearing Macca do 'drive my car' at that Liverpool gig on TV a while back I decided to learn that, no real reason. I realised he does a similar thing with that line as he does for back in the USSR Quote

xilddx Posted July 4, 2008 Posted July 4, 2008 [quote name='jonsmith' post='192410' date='May 5 2008, 07:38 PM']Mission by Rush - working on this with my Rush tribute at the moment. Hardest bit seems to be getting the transition from the 5/4 bit under the first guitar solo to the marimba/bass unison part really tight (and the tail end of that part is a bit tricky too). Good fun.[/quote] One of my fave RUSH numbers, it's awesome live. Quote

My teacher has given me Sunshine of your love to learn, and it's great and simple enough for me to handle. Edited August 24, 2008 by redfish Quote
YouMa Posted August 24, 2008 Posted August 24, 2008 The bass line to 80s sitcom "sorry". I dont know who the bass player is, probably one of ronnie hazlehursts mates,wish i knew who his main bass player was. Quote

I found myself playing Territories the other day. I love general Geddy lines from the eighties, also the seventies, nineties and noughties. Quote
markytbass Posted August 25, 2008 Posted August 25, 2008 I've got a whole set of blues to learn (about 20 songs, maybe more). Last night I worked out Catwalk Woman the Chris Rea version (if there is any other version?). Quote
