Thanks amigo!! Been wanting to tackle this song for a spell. Just decided today was the day haha
The Friday Rock show with @TheMadBassist! Top playing as usual, I don’t think I’ve ever listened to Tesla, good song though. Not only does this forum inspire us to learn new songs, we get inspired to listen to ‘new’ bands too!
Thank you!! I agree, I’ve learned about new bands myself through our great crew of bassists doing covers on here! Appreciate your support always! Tesla is a great band. Check out “Love Song”, and “Signs”, a cover they did, and also the album “Mechanical Resonance”. Fantastic album!!
Awesome playing, man! Well done!
Thanks brother Jerry!! Appreciate that!
In The Midnight Hour - Wilson Pickett
For your pleasure during happy hour …we present Wilson Pickett the smooth sound of soul music! Relax and enjoy…
Well done 401 Blues!
Great playing, @401Blues!
@401Blues great playing mate!
Today’s offering is the 1977 disco classic, Donna Summer’s, I Feel Love. At over 6 minutes long, 128bpm and with no let up, this song is a real test of stamina, but I love the groove!
I tried to get my daughter to dance, however she declined, so you will have to put up with me, a pink bass guitar, a golden shirt and a YouTube glitter ball!
Donna Summer - I Feel Love
Ibanez EHB1000S into an Ampero One, then on into GarageBand
GIORGIO APPROVED
Yeah I think the original is a synth sequence. That’s a real workout for sure on a bass guitar.
Nice work!
(edit: verified, Giorgio Moroder did the original bassline on a Moog Modular).
Another great one bro!
Here we go again…trying (in vain) to catch up)…

@John_E thanks for the feedback and kind words. There’s not many covers coming from me lately, as I’ve decided to focus on developing technique first and a practice schedule developed by my bass teacher. So I won’t add too much to your stress here
My fingers are cramped just listening to you…lol yea 5 glitter balls for endurance and groove-ability on this one!
Thanks man, I will!
