Guitarist here. I don't mind the bass, I'm actually thinking about picking one up to learn, but is that solo actually considered good? It just sounds like he's slapping it randomly, I just don't feel it
>>
>>938329
Bit of a random drive-by comment, but did you ever get into Frank Zappa's guitar work? Not the most orthodox instrumental prodigy, perhaps even a little sloppy, but the unique musical brain behind them made them often spellbinding to the initiated, and his crafted solos surely the same to anyone

>>938329
Les Claypool is definitely creative but he plays very sloppily live and I really don't get why people put him up as one of the "greatest musicians". Of course he does all these gimmicks, but Victor Vooten is a whole other league, technically and also musically, and there are many bassists more deserving of that title. Don't get me wrong, I love Primus, but I take it for what it is.

This. Claypool was a huge inspiration to me, but he is artistically barren at this point, and in review all but his most iconic basslines (tommy the cat, Jerry was a racecar driver, American Life, and a few others) really have any nuance to them. A lot of his stuff is much more basic than it sounds or just isn't that good. Primus is great as a whole, but Claypool shouldn't be put up there with Wooten.

>>941867

Disco shit is ridiculously satisfying to play. This sort of playing seems to be a lost art nowadays. Everyone's either playing root notes with a pick, or trying to learn slap. I made sure to learn disco-style playing before all else. It's good shit.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mkBS4zUjJZo
>>
>>945145
Really uh, real Billy Sheehan on that thing, huh?
>>
>>967771
This. Too many faggots try to force shit slap into everything. Bass is more about playing off the drums, accentuating certain beats and doing radical shit when you need to.

That's why bass players don't move a lot on stage. It's not because they're stupid or bored, it's because proper bass playing requires a huge amount of concentration. If you're even slightly out of time, the whole band sounds like shit.

In most forms of music, the goal of the bass section is to not stand out. It's quite depressing when put this way, but you'll never truly be a good bass player until you realise this. Fuck.

This guy was the bassist at my very first small venue concert when I was like 12,
he was playing the theme from metroid before the concert for everyone in the crowd

>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yf56jYDv2fc

I wasn't a fan of the band but his bass is pretty cool and my old friend invited him over to his house to show him his anime drawings lol

More Nuclear Rabbit the band he's the bassist in

This, emphatically. The celebrity of Victor Wooten is perfect evidence of the fact that many bassists have guitar envy.
Bass is indispensable to lots of sounds we value, but if you choose to play it, you have to accept that good bass playing is less technically challenging than good guitar (or piano, for that matter) playing, and that it accordingly garners less attention. Don't play bass if you want this sort of attention.
Good bass playing is good accompaniment. Difficult bass playing is >>937709. Please stick to the first.
