i just got my first bass 5-ish days ago and Ben E. King (that maybe wrong) - Stand By Me, was an easy song to learn
|
When searching for an easy song to play, it's a safe bet that punk is the way to go.
Discharge - Free Speech for the Dumb - easiest song ever Mistfits - Die, Die My Darling - very easy Metallica - Crash Course in Brain Surgery - easy, almost moderate; solo takes time to get right I should also mention that any song by Van Halen is easy as balls on bass. |
Dead Kennedys - Moon Over Marin
Dead Kennedys - Holiday In Cambodia Dead Kennedys - Nazi Punks F[U]u[/U]ck Off The Clash - Police And Thieves The Clash - Janie Jones Mad Caddies - Leavin The Selecter - On My Radio Madness - Baggy Trousers The Specials - A Message To You Rudy (Easiest Song Ever) MC Hammer - Can't Touch This THe Stranglers - Peaches |
The first songs I learned :Money-Pink Floyd
In the Flesh-Pink Floyd Whole Lotta Love-Led Zeppelin Anything that u can play when u first start playin is good. |
12 bar Bues - killer easy
Deftones: Root -easy System of a Down: Peephole- easy Anything really by greenday - easy Phish - Down with Disease - easy to moderate - Good slap with Drop D tuning Phish - Llama Taboo - medium - it's pretty fast, but repetitive. Grey Boy All stars - Jack Rabbit - pretty easy Herbie Hancock - Chamelian - Easy, but the first notes are pickups and can throw ya. Karl Denson - Unwind your mind - really easy - it's a 1-5 in C Jerytheracecardriver get 1,000 cool points from me. Now we just have to post this in the normal forum and add some more advanced songs to the list. Songs for tapping, songs for slapping, songs for harmonics, songs for double thumbing. Songs for billy and songs for sue. Songs that love to be played by you. Songs that dance and laugh and sing. Songs that simply don't do a thing. Ok im done. |
Sorry for going backwards a long way in time, but in the second post in this thread, "JerrytheRacecarDriver" said that RHCP - Higher Ground was a good beginners song. I view myself as a pretty handy bassist and i still have trouble with the starting riff in this song... Was this a mistake or does everyone just outclass me so incredibly? Personally, i suspect the latter of the two!
|
I have to say, if people are looking for a relatively easy piece to improve their rythym on the bass, they should try playing the Bass part for Led Zeppelin - Moby DIck... Apart from being a great song that's fun to play, it really gets you using a lot of the fretboard and is great for a general fun piece to play...
|
bassman21, I never said that Higher Ground was easy, merely that it was a good song for practising/learning slap with.
|

The riff itself is one of the simplest slap riffs I can name, but it does move at a speed which makes it tricky for some. |
Manson-This is the New ****-very easy
Manson-Disposable Teens-Easy Manson-Antichrist Superstar-easy GN'R-Welcome to the Jungle-Intermediate RHCP-By the way-easy Slipknot-Duality-easy |
Nirvana- Smells Like Teen Spirit
Eye of the Tiger Green Day- American Idiot Nirvana- Come as you are I'd say that the more advanced beginner would probably try Black Sabbath- NIB, and some Rage Against the Machine. |
