Have to admit to being guilty of trying to jazz it up a bit, but they dont like it. But there are lots of groovy one note tunes that still need to be kept simple. Off the top of my head.. George Bensons Love X Love . Very simple bass part but its gotta be played well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thankfully, the chances of me playing Country are pretty slim. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She likes Dolly Parton. We watched "9 to 5" so she wanted to sing it. I start playing along, 1,5,...she starts cracking up. I say, "What?" She says, "You look so stupid." 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
