I always found the rhythm of ToP a bit too feverish and the harmonies too montone. I know that is uncool for a bass player to admit and perhaps I'm too much of a whitebread to even get it ...
We've taken too much for granted ... and all the time it had grown ...
From techno seeds we first planted ... evolved a mind of its own ...

Pretty As You Please by Cry Of Love is always fun to play.





And Thorazine Shuffle by Gov't Mule has a fun riff too

Horns and such a simple but effective bass/guitar line to learn as a beginner - I still have the Carnegie Hall set, and it's box and MONSTER poster...

If research was easy, it wouldn't need doing...
Staring at that event horizon is a dirty job, but someone has to do it; something's going to come back out of it one day...
