As a young musician, I always want to play great Basslines, licks, Runs and also play sweet melodies over chord changes, but I couldn't because I skipped the process of learning. I later went back to learning the basic things. Every day I get messages from young bass players, and all they are interested in is RUNS and LICKS...
