Nice job! Some of those licks aren't on the track... still pretty sweet though - same as a few that I know :-P it's a great one for jamming on!

[hobbyshopfargo]

Bravo !

[Nitrousoxide2k]

I listen to this every single day, several times. I'm trying to learn Brick House on bass to perform it with my band, and if I can play it even remotely close to this, it will be epic... You are quite inspirational sir. :-)

[ampeguy]

Why thank u :)

Sadly I'm lil rusty these days, since I haven't been playing as much as I used to, hens why I haven't posted in ages.

Def have to get back to practicing.

Thanks again and just remember...Practice Practice Practice.
