Here’s my bass cover of Blacktop Mojo’s “It Won’t Last”…

One of the groups I jam with added this song a couple weeks ago to the “Learn List” and we’re suppose to get together in the next couple weeks to start rehearsing it. A really fun song to get down and dirty on while rock’n out playin’ a little “Texas Grunge”…

That was exactly the LAST type of music I expected to come from those guys … LOL Lesson learnt about judging books from covers … :stuck_out_tongue:

Damn cool band… and great cover @Lanny :slight_smile:

Very mellow, @faydout! Great playing and great time!

Great playing, @AndreaJayne! As others have commented, that’s a very rock bass position :metal:

Ooh, I like this, @g13dip! And given that I am certainly on team cat, your Siamese certainly gets a thumbs up from me! :+1: (I have an Oriental, basically a Siamese with a coloured coat, wonderful cats!)

Cool, @JustinAndSheba. Love the fact that this baseline takes you up into the dusty area of the fretboard!

Great playing, @Lanny! I need to get a green screen, or at least a green cloth! Also, how cool is that guitar playing?!

Awesome, loved it :slight_smile:

@Lanny Wow, that is a band to hear more of. They have that Gary Moore style soulful blues sound.
“Some call their sound “Texas Grunge”.” Great name :slight_smile:

FrankMusik (Pet Shop Boys) - It’s A Sin bass improvisation

Nope, I’d never heard of FrankMusik either, until I goggled “It’s A Sin” covers. It’s quite a cool acoustic cover of the song, but it was lacking bass, so I fixed it :rofl:

The challenge with this song was its timing. Let’s put it like this, they certainly were not playing to a click track, so concentration and feel were everything!

Hohner Professional B Bass into the Hotone Ampero, then on into GarageBand.

@sunDOG - You should Duncan!!:+1::+1:. I pretty much keep mine up in my recording studio room. Comes in handy for certain covers. Don’t use it for all though.

@AndreaJayne - “They have that Gary Moore style soulful blues sound.”
“Some call their sound “Texas Grunge”

i can hear why you would say that Andrea - the lead guitar player has that soulful blues style in his guitar playing.

Never happen Jerry…:rofl::rofl:. My ships done sailed years ago…:rofl::rofl:. Do enjoy jamming and filling in at times with a couple groups though.

And you did it so damn well!! Well done Duncan. Live the tone you put to the track also - certainly fits the mood and feel of the song.

Once a song pops into my head, I have to cover it myself so I heard that!

For what it cost me (not a lot), it’s a blurry fantastic bass! The Hohner, the Dingwall and the little Ibanez, they feel like the perfect trio!

Thank you, sir!!

I do like hunting out alternative versions of songs!

Thank you, Travis!

Gonna be that guy …

There are 2 types of people in the world:

  • Those who LOVE ABBA
    and …
  • Those who LIE about loving ABBA

I love my metal… but I still love my ABBA… how can you not feel good listening to this stuff? :slight_smile:

Decided to mess with this to take a break from a Phil Collins tune I am working on ( that I am actually taking very seriously ) …

Mamma Mia - ABBA

That was the craziest version I heard of that tune :slight_smile: the intro almost reminded me of those Postmodern Jukebox covers you see … WAY cool :slight_smile:

Fantastic job with this one! Loved the Pet Shop Boys when they were the rage in the 80s :slight_smile:
