With all the sad news about MJ passing I musta heard The Jackson's " I Want You Back" about a dozen times yesterday. It's one of my all time favorite songs but I've never had the opportunity to play it in a band. I guess what we dig can be hard for a guitarist or drummer to get excited over and vice versa ?

Today I decided to take some "me" time while the family was out and get reacquainted with this nifty bass line.

I must say I've kinda forgot how much of a finger stretcher the first few notes and the bridge are but still I love this song for playing along to.

I wonder if James and MJ are somewhere together, talking about the old times, right now.
