"One Good Reason"

Backdated, archival post

---&---


An-other one of the parts from Ammonia Avenue that I thought would be pretty easy to figure out is the bass part in "One Good Reason."  The rhythm was actually the hardest part.  This is just the first two verses, although I ended on a D note for the first bridge ("I keep making the same mistake…").  I don't think there's a "proper" bass part for the bridges, but there's a repeated D note in the bottom register of a synth part.

The bass parts during the rest of the song are pretty much the same as those that I have in my recording, so I didn't play through the whole song.
