@John_E

This is a song I learned early on this year, but never bothered to cover.
As I know it pretty well now I figured I would record it quickly.

2 Thumbs up @John_E !!

@JerryP

here is a Karaoke favorite of mine.

@JerryP Awesome job!

PS - When’s the BassBuzz Reunion / Karaoke party?!?

[Jazzbass19]

Really great job, @Gabriel1 . . .

Cheers
Joe

[PamPurrs]

Very nice job @gabriel and nice tone.

[Gabriel1]

thanks for all guys!

[Vegaswizzle]

Great cover dude. I don’t normally watch covers all the way thru, but the fills that u were nailing made me stay.

[Gabriel1]

thank you so so much for watching!

[JerryP]

Nicely done @Gabriel1 ! Not familiar with the song, but very well played.

[PamPurrs]

The last three covers posted by @JerryP, @John_E, and @Gabriel1 are tough acts to follow. I humbly submit my latest cover.

In 1997 Meredith Brooks redefined this word. At first, radio jocks were afraid to even mention the title of the song. Meanwhile, people like me were singing along in our cars while it played on our radios.

I had to compete with lead guitar, two rhythm guitars, and a very loud drummer on this song. I cranked the bass up as much as I could without making it sound muddy.

Played on the ESP Frank Bella with LaBella flats, through the Zoom Bn3 with light chorus and reverb, and then to the VTBassDI for a little overdrive.

It’s a great song. I hope you enjoy my version of it!

WOW great job again @PamPurrs and a great song!
Always like your take on a bass line.
No competition here, you knocked it out of the park!

[PamPurrs]

Thank you @John_E , I tried to get it close to the original bassline, and added a couple of fills and slides that weren’t there.

[JerryP]

I’ll try to listen to this in the middle of the night here in the hotel as there will be few people trying to grab as much bandwidth as they can.

Great job @PamPurrs . The bass sounds really good and your little additions certainly fitted right in. The biggest thing to me was you really looked like you enjoyed it as you always do which I reckon should be the whole reason why we play

[PamPurrs]

Thanks @Mac yes, I really enjoyed playing this. It’s a song I’ve loved for a very long time and have been wanting to learn.

[T_dub]

Awesome Pam.
I left a comment on your website.
Tone, effects and volume were all PERFECT, and your additions (although I am not super familiar with this song), must be perfect, because there was no place in the song where the bass line didn’t fit perfectly.

Not exactly a cover so I’m not sure if this is the right place to post this. I plan on doing the 25 Groove challenge, so if it’s not let me know and I’ll start another thread.

I’m giving the video recording thing a try. I also tried something different today. Used the XLR line out on my amp direct to the Forcusrite Scarlett Solo. No Reaper VST plugins, just the bass and amp. Let me know how it sounds.

Video moved: Groove #1

[T_dub]

there is a “Post your practice fragments” thread, and a “post your original compositions” thread also
However,
I think this one could use its own thread, as others probably want to do the Talkingbass challenge as well, and people could post their challenges in that thread, if you create it.

[RuknRole]

Ok as long as it’s legal. lol
Thread created.

I had to try 3 different browsers to get it to play, but I got it. I left a comment on the website.
Great job!

Thanks Toby @T_dub
