Stand By Me – Ben E. King (bass)
About the song
Stand by Me was written by Ben E. King with Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller and came out in 1961. In 1986 it came back as the title song of the film Stand by Me. The bass line is one of the most famous ever, and the first thing many bass players learn.
My Notes:
A very popular bassline. Easy to play, hard not to enjoy.
I don’t like the length of the notes how they vary, but I guess that’s the thing that got stuck in your head.
Grab your bass and play along!
Sidenote:
I try to find recognizable easy to play songs for Bass on Rocksmith 2014. I don’t do extra practice for recording, so there will be mistakes. I changed the setup so the G string (orange) is on top and the E string is at the bottom, because I played TABS for guitar before. All songs are in the key of E standard. I like to thank all the creators of the custom DLC’s.
