Hi everyone. Well I wanted to recommend a good product... excellent... I BOUGHT THE #WORMING EXERCISE # from Greg few months ago ....when I start learning how to play , and Wow , my hands are so much better when I play... Thank God and Greg ;)
Thanks for that and glad the warm-up exercises are helping. Here is the book if anyone wants to check it out: www.gbshed.com/books/warm-up-exercises-for-bass-players
Hi Greg, many thanks for the reply. I don’t envy you picking 5 classic Lizzy tracks, or AC/DC classics. Used to play a lot of rock covers, loved them all, you can really go to town on some of them. Sometimes beginning a gig with four back to back, no stopping classics. Fills the dance floor 😂 I await with bated breath for your AC/DC tracks, you just can’t go wrong...there all good 👍 Rock till you drop👍
It’s funny, I didn’t focus as much with Rock for the channel because I thought all the creators were doing it and there would already be too many bass lessons already. But Rock is such a huge genre and there are so many great bass lines. I’ve learnt the errors of my ways. Maybe I’ll even make a Rock course later next year.
So much fun Greg. Love all of these riffs. My all time favourite is from Cheap Trick. It’s called ‘Can’t Stop Falling Into Love’. Bassist was Tom Petersson who co-wrote it.
Interesting choice Ruth. I kinda think I know Cheap Trick but I’m not that familiar with them. Maybe I played some of there tunes once at a gig. I’ll research more!
Hi Greg, you are doing well? Rog Glover of Deep Purple, who is now 77 years old, and his Black Night was the second peace of Bass-Line i learned when i started playing Bass 4.5 years ago. The reason: Dancing to Black Night with a girl, i made the first kiss at the age of 10. My first peace of music i tried is "Easy Livin'" by Uriah Heep. That's awsome. You tried? Thanks for this lesson and i wish you a great time in this december. Cheers Alf
This sounds great Alf. It's amazing how music stores up so many memories for us. Great to hear your story. I have added Easy Livin' tp my list of 'lessons to make'. This reminds me of a picture of Uriah Heep (from David Copperfield) that we use to have in our family house. I use to stare at this crazy fella every time I walked down the stairs as a child! www.alamy.com/stock-photo-uriah-heep-from-david-copperfield-by-charles-dickens-artist-frederick-31315690.html?imageid=F47129E5-0D90-40FC-83AA-A0742CA61D3E&p=90112&pn=1&searchId=14012ab5837d2a437d1ec3b3b90f4c78&searchtype=0
Hi Greg, brilliant lesson, loads of fun memories flooding back playing three of the riffs you picked. Thank you. Where to start on favourite rock riffs. Ones I have enjoyed playing live are, in no particular preference Whole Lotta Rosie: Dancing in the Moonlight (Lizzy version) Money: Keep on Rockin’ In the Free World, Black Dog (Zep) The Trooper, Baby Please Don’t Go (Them) Alright Now (Bad Company) Shook Me All Night Long (AC/DC) Message in a Bottle. I’ll stop there 😂 sooo many great rock bass lines, spoilt for choice. Great lesson, look forward to your next one. 👍
Fantastic list of tunes Bryn, thanks so much. I have made a note of them. I've also played some of those tunes live. Use to play Message In A Bottle, Alright Now, Rockin' In The Free World (I even sang backing vocals on that!) and Black Dog which is an interesting one to play. As I said to someone else in the comments, I must make Five Classic Thin Lizzy Bass Lines and Five Classic AC/DC bass lines!! Here are the Thin Lizzy lessons I have made already: Boys Are Back In Town: th-cam.com/video/99n7zzNv_QU/w-d-xo.html Dancing in The MoonLight: th-cam.com/video/qXCEgGsDnDI/w-d-xo.html I also made a backing track for Dancing In The Moonlight with some friends: th-cam.com/video/lHiYiZ_nZxs/w-d-xo.html

Glad to help Travis! What a list of tunes you've just given me! I love the bass lines to all of those! This could be another 'Five Classic Bass Lines' lesson or maybe they deserve a full length lesson? Have a great weekend brother!
Hello Greg, in response to your email on ROCK songs to submit to you, I've been a fan of Thin Lizzy since their very beginning and went to see them at the Pavillon Baltard in the late 70s! A very great moment! and what a piece to submit to you "Chinatown, Dancing in the moonligth, Soldier of fortune, Bad reputation, Wiskey in the Jar, The Boys Are Back in Town ETC .... with this Huge big Phyl Lynnot and no less huge Gary Moore, Brian Robertson, Scott Gorham, then a succession of very good musicians, an impressive discography, I can only recommend Rock Legend by Thin Lizzy!!!! And then from AC/DC this other magnificent group that I have been following since 1975 with this sublime Bon Scott and his voice which is the very essence of this group and all the other Young Brothers, Brian Johnson , the great Cliff Williams, with these bass lines which own the shop in part! A little "Cold hearted man" ETC...... And so many great Anglo-Saxon groups that could be named, but unfortunately too few French people apart from Telephone, Trust, Thank you for everything!!! Musically !!!
Hi Gilles, thank you so much for the great list of tunes. I have listened to a lot of Thin Lizzy and I love Phil Lynnot's bass lines. I'm not so familiar with the AC/DC albums but I know their hits. I think I must make Five Classic Thin Lizzy Bass Lines and Five Classic AC/DC bass lines!! Here are the Thin Lizzy lessons I have made already: Boys Are Back In Town: th-cam.com/video/99n7zzNv_QU/w-d-xo.html Dancing in The MoonLight: th-cam.com/video/qXCEgGsDnDI/w-d-xo.html I also made a backing track for Dancing In The Moonlight with some friends: th-cam.com/video/lHiYiZ_nZxs/w-d-xo.html
Wish I could remember the name of the bassist who said Cliff Burton inspired him to play with a pick. The interviewer said, "Cliff played with his fingers" and the bassist replied, "Yes, and I knew I couldn't play like that with my fingers". Or something like that 😅
Cheers, my specialty is getting song titles mixed up. Back To Black is an Any Winehouse song! 😂 Not being ‘pick-ee’ either but didn’t you get it wrong above too? 👀
Oh! I did delete two porn site messages on Saturday (I think they were bots) but unless you’ve changed jobs, I’m pretty sure I didn’t accidentally delete your message! 😀
@@GregsBassShed No,I've not changed jobs(but I am happily enjoying early retirement !!!!!!).My question was concerning the notation for "Another brick in the wall ".In the 2nd and 3rd bars of the bass clef it shows a "D" note tied,but in the tab shows it as 2 separate "D"notes.I initially played it as 2 notes !!!!!!!Senior moment there !!!!!!!
@@jonswift7174 ah, my mistake. When I copy and paste the notation to the Tab line, the software annoyingly puts in both notes of the tie above so I have to manually erase the second note on the Tab. I missed this one!

Good call 👍

Or something like that 😅
Sounds like a fun story. I'll try and see if I find out online. Enjoy the video.
@@GregsBassShed thank you and I enjoyed the video very much!
@@Tracer9GTRider8 great stuff.
Finger or pick for you? Or both?
@@GregsBassShed ✌🏻 never could get it right with a pick 😅
@@Tracer9GTRider8 I use fingers 90% of the time. The pick does take a bit of getting use to if you play finger style.
Would you believe, it's 'Back In Black" !!! ... Ya' got me confused now! 😆
😂😂😂 it’s catching!
I'm trying not to be 'pick~ee' ,,, but it is 'Black In Black' .. Acca Dacca ... Cheers mate 🍾
Cheers, my specialty is getting song titles mixed up. Back To Black is an Any Winehouse song! 😂
Not being ‘pick-ee’ either but didn’t you get it wrong above too? 👀
@@GregsBassShed Yep! .. And I'm a bloody 'aussie' ! 🤣🤣
Blame it on the 'Bagpipes'!
@@davidleigh8501 😂
Black Night - Ain’t Got Nothing Yet?
Sorry Greg, the Back in Black bass line is not right - in the 4th bar it's C# B G#, not C# B G as you've presented.
I've isolated the parts and it sounds like a G# in the guitar line and a G natural in the bass line...

It's Back in Black, not Back to Black.
