Oh, you have a bass-only song?

[MiltyG565]

Generally, I avoid bass-only songs like a plague, as I can usually see nothing more in them than a show of skill, which is cool, but not for me.

This, however, I love. Granted, the lyrics aren't fantastic, but I think overall the song is great.

Great piece from a great bassist. I know what you mean about the lyrics, but when they're that funky and sung with feel, man that irons everything out for me!

I like this one too ;

Far prefer the first two, ie without the looping/multi-tracking.

We always used to have a drums, bass and vocal only song that we'd drop into the set when the guitarist broke a string.

Yeah, I've heard looped tracks before, and they can be really great too, but I just admire somebody's ability to write an accessible song (i.e. not something played on a coffee table and rammed full of muted slap triplets and harmonics) for bass only.

Always loved this one!
