09.07.09 | Oh yes, i have this! Never thought of learning it though, ever since i heard those 31/32 bars mixed with the 4/4 bars in Aesthetic i was scared of BTBAM.
Cheers, i'll have a go! |

09.07.09 | The bass solo on mars volta third cd, its not jazzy but it will help you mix up the minor scale well, get up offa that thing -James Brown, for somethin jazzy/technical check out Victor Wooten. |

LeperCon
09.07.09 | Any Muse isn't too tricky but you can't exactly just pick up a bass and play it either |
Bandido
09.07.09 | "Axiom" by Rancid has another wicked bass solo, maybe better than Maxwell Murder. Also try "Do Me A Favour" and "From Ritz to Rubble" by Arctic Monkeys |
thebbqshrimp
09.07.09 | Judging by what you have up there, you're already a fairly talented bass player. If you're even considering dabbling with anything by Jaco Pastorius, then you're a phenomenal bass player. Therefore, give some Victor Wooten a go. (Mostly his work with Bela Fleck and the Flecktones). |
Prophet178
09.07.09 | YYZ is ridiculously difficult. |
Skimaskcheck
09.07.09 | IndieGuitarist: YES! Absolutely love the bass on that track, haven't learnt it yet though heh!
Bandido: Axiom is awesome yeah! I'd say Freeman's best is White Knuckle Ride though. Funny you should say From the Ritz... it's pretty much the only Arctic Monkeys song i listen to ha!
thebbqshrimp: I can play most of the list, but not all parts of it by any means. I just got Jaco's S/T, and it's pretty mad! But inspiring, which is obviously good. And yeah, love Wooten's work too, but i do need some Bela Fleck stuff, so cheers for that. |
