Working my way through the 50 Songs Challenge. Here is song #26 - Money.

I have a DSotM prism tattoo on my leg, so Iā€™m certainly a fan. Playing this was so cool, but man, itā€™s a long one! :rofl:

Iā€™m taking @John_Eā€˜s advice and not mentioning the unmentionables. Iā€™ll just say that Iā€™m pleased with this one overall and happy to share.

Nice tone here @Professor

Go back and listen to the very beginning, or better yet, compare the original bass track to yours in your DAW. I think you will find you are quite off in timing. This getā€™s dialed in once the rest of the instruments inform you better of the beat.

There are a couple ways to conquer songs that give you little to no clue how to start.

  1. Watch your DAWs original bass waveform
  2. Memorize the countin - probably the hardest way
  3. Note other key sound cues to let you know where to come in

After the beginning, you did a great job. This one is a workout for sure.

Youā€™re 100% correct - itā€™s one of the unmentionables. :rofl:

I tried the count-in method. Messed it up bad for the first take and ended up with this for the second. I get impatient with the takes so I rarely go beyond take 2. lol

I need to figure something out though - this isnā€™t the first time Iā€™ve been thrown off during an odd time start.

Having said that, this was a fun song to work through and I feel like it elevated my raking game.

As always, I appreciate your feedback. :slightly_smiling_face:

Money/Pink Floyd bass by Cara

Quirky 7/8 bass line, really rocks in the middle.

Great playing!

No bass player is ever allowed to complain that their hands are too small when youā€™re capable of playing like that.

Iā€™m just saying bass players often chide me for not playing 1fret 1finger and Iā€™m sayin gtheres a reason, but it doesnā€™t limit me. You dont have to play 1f 1f you just have to be quicker

nope nope nope nope nope

anyone that chides for for this is jealous of your talent. David Lynch played guitar upsidedown/backwards and on his lap. You do you.
