Dave's Bass-ment
United States
Приєднався 23 гру 2023
I was in my teens during the 70's Skynyrd, Kiss, Aerosmith days and played bass guitar in a little garage band. I sold everything to help cover college expenses (War Eagle) but played my acoustic six string enough to wow friends with my ability to copy stuff by ear. From 1990 to 2020, I was a Product Manager at Pioneer Electronics keeping music a big part of my life.
I picked the bass back up a few years ago and have enjoyed re-living some of my youth covering old and a few new favorites. This channel is not for instruction; there’s plenty of talented players posting covers with tabs, it’s simply a place for me to play my bass, keep my hands on the editor and share my attempts at covering great bass showcase songs. I also feel it's important to recognize, thank and honor the amazing creators of the songs I cover.
I use a Roland Go:Mixer Pro-X, my iPhone to record, an iPad for the music, a pair of awesome Pioneer SE-A1000 headphones and a Yamaha TRBX174 bass guitar.

The Cranberries - Dreams - Bass Cover
Dreams was released 1992 on the debut album Everybody Else Is Doing It, So Why Can't We? The track made it to the top 50 of the US Top 100 in '94. A very simple 3 chord tune, the bass-line holds the song together. Staying with the steady right hand rhythm and switching up the frets are the fun parts.

Released in 2009 on the 21st Century Breakdown album. Just a great tune with profound life messages. The bass-line is melodic but has some powerful transitions and some hard hits where the song needs them. #music #bass #coversong

REO Speedwagon - Time For Me To Fly - Bass Cover.

Ok, I missed a big A early and had a few timing misses so I'm re-recording this one. I'll leave this gallant attempt up till I replace it just 'cause it's not that bad; I'm getting 75% of it done WITH a pick! What a great and powerful song. The bass-line is incredible and I found myself getting emotional on those last notes thinking of my father who passed away last month, he was a Delta pilot....

With Bob Dylan back in the limelight, just living in S. Cal and remembering "real" winters back east have me going back to my earliest music memories. California Dreamin' was released in '65, I was 4 years old but I remember my Mom playing her acoustic guitar and singing this song and it gives me goose-bumps every time I hear it. The song is about what it says it is, they were in New York durin...

Being from North Georgia and attending Auburn University in the early 80's, I had a front row seat to REM's arrival and enthusiastically followed them to the very end. I love this band and was very happy to see them recently inducted into the Song Writers Hall of Fame. Imitation of Life was released on their 12th album Reveal in 2001 and was yet another confirmation of this bands incredible gen...
Loverboy - Working for the Weekend - Bass Cover
Переглядів 3638 місяців тому
Working for the Weekend was released in 1982 and has become an American anthem for anyone and everyone who has a job! A super fun bass guitar cover with a nice fast rhythm and an immediately identifiable hook. These guys could rock. The loss of bassist Scott Smith in a sailing accident back in 2000 was a real tragedy. #music #basscover #bassguitar
Baby Boomers, remember when we saw the first music video on MTV? The Buggles!

I know, a little different but the bass line on this song is really powerful and a ton of fun to try and play. The track was released in 1979 but we all saw it from our dorm rooms as it was the first music video shown on MTV in the US, airing at 12:01 a.m. on 1 August 1981. For you post-boomers, we didn't have TV sound through our stereo's back then so MTV was simulcast through FM radio station...
