  • I was flea obsessed and the first song I learnt was skinny sweaty man, then blackeyed blonde, then sir psycho sexy.

    All three are brilliant yet relatively simple.

    Actually this one's better



    It just sounds like someone dropped a plugged-in bass down the stairs :-/

    This is the only song I've bothered to learn the bass for. I reckon you would enjoy having a crack at it. It's got harmonics and pull off stuff in as well.

    Learn the basic "walking bass line" riffs that are most often used with the 3 notes you mention starting out with(in theory speak the 1, 4, 5 played in a 12 bar repeating pattern).   For more challenging and fun stuff.....I used to play the bass line to several Rush songs from various albums pre  1980 or so.  Some of them aren't as difficult technically, just hard to remember, but beautiful to play all on their own.

    My favourite bass player. The new album is chock full of awesome bass lines, and a fantastic voice too.
