Solid work on the bass, and I liked the Bells you played via the korg.

Well done!

Hey Attitude, many thanks for the kind words.
You are one of the many "big dogs" I admire here.

Regarding the groove, yeah, this took several takes on the bass to get it where the song demanded. My normal inclination is to provide plenty of rhythm but this one demanded a much more laid-back or reserved groove to let the other instruments carry the day. [I apologize if I'm not using the correct musical vocabulary to describe this.]

When searching for a voice, the bells came naturally as well as the notes I came up with. Truth be told, I don't even know what the notes actually are, to me they're just a nice sounding keyboard pattern that my fingers were somehow led to.

For me there’s no better place in the band than to have one leg in the harmony world and the other in the percussive. Thank you Paul Tutmarc and Leo Fender.
