I already explained my argument and it encompassed more than just the bass.

They are more talented and they aren't as lame. That's what they've done. That's all I need.

So you don't really have a viable argument, do you?

How many times do I have to tell you I already gave you the arguement? If you're curious to know what it is, look back a few pages.

You have no proof whatsoever that they were just screaming because Paul was cute. Stop trying to pass your own unfounded assumptions off as legit facts.

Are you seriously saying the Beatles aren't catchy?

The Beatles - I Want You (She's So Heavy)




This ****s over any Godsmack bassline. BTW, that bass solo you posted was very average and I'm telling you that as a bassist. Picking up a bass and doing some half-arsed gimmicky, not to mention sloppy slap/pop line is anything but original. There's very little groove there, and the rhythm is incredibly jagged/contrived.

And bassists aren't guitarists. A bass solo is NOT the way to judge a bassist's skill (and nor should it be the case for a guitarist anyway). Being a skilled bassist means that you tied together the rhythm and melody, you don't overplay, you write the perfect bassline for the song and you groove.




And you haven't replied to my other post.

STILL avoiding the issue :laughing:

If they're such a great band you should have no problem finding other bands they've influenced or naming albums they've made that have changed the face of music and explaining why.

Any idiot can just throw out the 'lame' thing , and you have ..... constantly

McCartney dosen't do bass solos. That dosen't have anything to do with technical abillity. Its about taste. Bass solos don't suit his music so no bass solos.

And judging how good a f*cking bass player is by weither or not he does solos is just laughable. Do you even f*cking know what a bassist is supposed to do?

Many of the most technically skilled bass gods rarely or never solo. Because soloing doesn't make a great bass player, its about rhythm, balance, solid and creative basslines, complimenting the other instruments and adapting to different styles. Paul had all that covered. Just because someone can do a sloppy ass Victor Wooten impersonation dosen't make him better.

You can have your girly, lame, little teeny bopper 'I wanna hold your hand' garbage
