Chrismanbass Posted January 1, 2015 Posted January 1, 2015 admit it we've all done it .... okay well maybe not but my question is what tunes do you play purely for fun you don't necessarily have to learn anything from it you may have mastered it long ago but you still love playing it? for me its Rosanna by toto not the most complex of basslines but just good fun [url="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qmOLtTGvsbM"]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qmOLtTGvsbM [/url] Quote
seashell Posted January 1, 2015 Posted January 1, 2015 I think it's got to be Enter Sandman for me. :-) Quote

jgmh315 Posted January 2, 2015 Posted January 2, 2015 Paradise City for me. Can never play it enough. Quote
Drax Posted January 2, 2015 Posted January 2, 2015 Pink Floyd - Young Lust. Not even a big fan of the band, but it's great simple line you can play around with, in your pants Quote

PJS Posted January 2, 2015 Posted January 2, 2015 "Dawn Patrol" by Megadeth. It's just so cool! Quote
ezbass Posted January 2, 2015 Posted January 2, 2015 (edited) Steely Dan's Haitian Divorce and Josie, Paul Young's Wherever I Lay My Hat and Tear Your Playhouse Down (I know it's actually Graham Parker's but Pino was one of The Rumour). Oh yeah, and my cod attempt at this http://youtu.be/ycN9x_5MqHQ Edited January 2, 2015 by ezbass Quote
Telebass Posted January 3, 2015 Posted January 3, 2015 Also, More Than Words, Extreme. Nice to do your own thing on, or really lay back and keep it simple. Play it in F# (detuned a semitone on the record, they play it in G) and try to use absolute minimum hand movement. I have small hands, so it was tough, but got easier! Quote
