I spent time on the bass today too, way too early this morning when I didn't really want to be awake yet but dreaming about spilling acid on my hand woke me. I'm not sure you'll approve of the piece I wrote (I'm still trying to decide whether to leave in the passage that requires a slide because it goes off the end of the fretboard).
Annoyingly, I didn't finish the guitar/fiddle/bass/drums piece that I really wanted to post this month (since the title I have in mind for it is "Samhain"). But ironically, I noticed that this morning's tune, which started just falling out of my fingertips, should work as an intro for the one I've been working on all month on and off. (So I'm tentatively titling it "Samhain Eve", though until I post it someplace that's subject to changing my mind).
It's kind of funny how some phrases sound different after you've thought about them enough to write them down. Same notes, different energy.
