Thanks for checking out my channel. Music is the love of my life. I am not a natural I had to practice long and hard to get to where I'm at musically. My parents got my first acoustic guitar when I was 5. I took lessons from a classical instructor for beginning guitar for about a year or so during that time. In High School I got my first electric. A Univox Fender Strat copy. I started out with rock by finding a great teacher, his name was Jason Cobb, a kid in my classes who was an amazing guitarist, a "natural." He gave me lessons for five bucks a week an hour a week, learning songs by Quiet Riot, Def Leppard, Van Halen, Rush, Hendrix, Zeppelin, Maiden, Priest, Metallica, etc. In my twenties I got my first bass at a guitar player friend's request. He wanted me to play bass behind him. So I started playing bass and I did both guitar and bass for a long time but it has now been years since I've picked up a six string. I have morphed into a bassist. Bass is more comfortable.
Elvis Presley - Hound Dog - Bass Cover
Originally played on a stand up slap bass I do believe. I've always loved Elvis. Since I was 9 anyway. I panned over to the opposite corner of the room for this video, so my Elvis memorabilia can be seen. I got my first Elvis record, "Elvis' Golden Records," from my Aunt Nora. She adored Elvis. So she introduced me to the King. I listened to it for the first time with my Mom. She was singing along. I'd never heard anything he'd done at the time. I really liked him immediately. I really liked Hound Dog. By the time I was 10 Elvis was gone. I remember watching the "Elvis in Concert" show on TV. His final performance. A great show. I have it on video today. If you're an Elvis fan I very, ver...

From the Rush "Counterparts" album 1993. RIP Neil Peart, the greatest drummer of all-time, in my opinion, anyway. And also a great book author. I've read several of his books. His lyrics are the top of the line for me. He is also the greatest lyricist of all-time, in my opinion, of course. And he was a cool dude, he rode his motorcycle on tour while the other guys took the tour bus. When he was...

From their debut "Too Fast For Love" 1981. For me this song is the gravel parking lot out back at Hanford High School, hanging out in my buddy Phil's van, smoking some weed and rocking out at lunch break. Their first two albums are by far my favorites. Those were my High School days.

From the classic first album, 1995, which was actually made by Dave Grohl all by himself, playing every instrument, singing and of course writing every song. This is all Dave. With me blending in on bass. Fun to play this little two minute punk tune. I love punk rock.

From the third album, "La Sexorcisto: Devil Music Volume One" (1992). I've always loved this guy's voice. I had this on CD when it first came out. Great stuff. I've seen Rob Zombie at least once, at Ozzfest. I don't recall the year. I've been to several Ozzfests over the years.

The Godz and Bassman Kenny's School of Rock and Roll. "You best believe I'm qualified to show you how to rock and roll." From the album "Nothing Is Sacred" 1979. These guys are still around it looks like. According to Wikipedia they have some new members, but are still active. I've listened to this album since I was a kid. I had it as a teenager. Love these guys. Great bass line. Fun to play.
Iron Maiden - Wasted Years - Bass Cover

"Somewhere in Time" is the sixth album by Iron Maiden. It was released in 1986. Steve Harris is one of the greatest heavy metal bassists of all-time. Iron Maiden is one of the most talented bands ever. I've been lucky enough to see them at least three times over the years, that I can remember, one time they were with Judas Priest. That was a great show.

This is from "Wasting Light" 2011. True punk rock. My low E string takes a beating on this one. I turned it down so it wouldn't be as distorted sounding, but it's punk rock so, you know...

From the classic "The Game" album, 1980. I've loved this song since this album first came out, and I enjoyed learning it for the first time just a few days ago. I thought I had it smooth enough to make a video, so here it is. I am very happy to know how to play this one now. John Deacon. Now there's a phenomenal bassist. RIP Freddie Mercury.

This is off of Jimi's first album entitled "Are You Experienced?" 1967. The same year I was born, as a matter of fact. Take note the mini-poster on the wall behind me. It's a pullout poster from High Times Magazine showing Jimi taking a roach break while he's on stage. Here it is: www.ebay.com/itm/325615473523

John Deacon’s bass contributed 100 percent to the Queen sound. Somebody, to Love, Millionaire Waltz, Not to mention the iconic Another Bites the Dust & Under Pressure” and many others. Queen was the sum of their parts, Each one were excellent musicians.
@@ellet6560 Absolutely. Brian May's guitar sound is all his own. He's a genius. All four were geniuses. One of the greatest bands of all time for sure.
