"Share some good music" Friday

I was just listening to this in the car.
It is a fairly simple bassline, to a song that EVRYBODY knows, at least any sports fan has heard this a million times, but not many know the whole song.
If you do know the song, you will instantly recognize it by the
If you don’t know the song by the starting bassline, wait for the chorus and you will recognize the clip that is played at EVERY ARENA in America, and possibly outside of America, but I could not say if that is so or not.

starting bass line, and that is why I am posting it here.

Yeah - you’ll see snippets of me working up to Hysteria all over the forums :slight_smile:

Josh has a great tutorial:

Very fun bassline, very much not a beginner bassline, and it requires a lot of stamina to do the whole thing at full speed. Even doing a few bars at full speed and not sounding super shitty is hard. For me it’s a serious plucking hand challenge.

Left hand fingering has a tricky moment mid-riff. Disagree that it’s simple, it’s a fast and moderately complex bassline made up of simple elements.

I love Polysics so much :heart_eyes:

also a crazy tone from the Yam SBV 550 and Fumi’s incredibly great playing. sounds pretty much like a P into a Darkglass to me …

They are so good.

Fumi and Miki Furukawa (Supercar) make me want a 550. What a cool bass.

Ironically Sony banned that vid in Japan :slight_smile:

Blatant naked raygun ripoff

Oh my goodness do these mono remasters of Aretha Franklin tunes sound good!

Haven’t done an A/B test, but the bass is either mixed hotter, or just comes clearer somehow. Such killer playing from Tommy Cogbill, Chuck Rainey, and others.

IDK about Blatant, and may be more of “have been an influence” rather then a straight “ripoff”, but I get your point

That reminds me. I love this video (and song) so much.

Anyone that clubbed in the Bay Area in the early '90s probably just got happy memories triggered :slight_smile:

(A song with that sample was everywhere and SF was a den of house music)

Eh, it’s OK. Jeff’s told me a bunch of times they stole everything they did from the ruts

Derek and the Dominos – Let It Rain

Yeah I’m like 5% of the way to being able to play like Carl. May not be a technically complex piece, but he’s playing the right notes, at the right time, for 18 minutes (mi us the drum solo lol)

I do like some sludge. :smiling_imp:

There’s just something about a P-bass going in to a SVT. You just can’t beat that for some things.

By far my favorite SoCal punk band. By really far :slight_smile:

Punkabilly is just cool.

Yeah, I don’t like him, so don’t really like the band, and there is WAY WAY WAY better OC punk that originated early on, and carries on in the tradition.
But variety is the spice of life and everyone has their own options, and music out there so suit the taste.
