Stupidly Easy Tunes Which Are An Absolute Pleasure To Play

[Hot Tub]

Been doing Neil Young's [i]Heart Of Gold[/i] - gawd it's a lovely song! Also Metallica's [i]Nothing Else Matters[/i] - dead easy and very satisfying.

Is it just me, or is it "normal" to really love playing something which involves no effort or challenge whatsoever?

What does it for you?

[Bloodaxe]

Some Kind of Wonderful by Grand Funk Railroad is doing it for me at the moment.

[leftybassman392]

Bob Marley - Stir It Up

[velvetkevorkian]

Black Sabbath- Paranoid.

[warwickhunt]

Almost anything by AC/DC.

[neilb]

Happy Hour - Housemartins

[KennysFord]

Not quite stupidly easy but Donny Hathaway's Little ghetto boy is the one I get the most pleasure from.

Any of the Ramones stuff

Return Of The Mack. Used to play it in a previous band. Two notes, amazing groove.

Also, the main verse to I Found Lovin by Fatback.

It's all in the groove.
