I'm not a bass player, but I've been buying all sorts of different picks recently because I'm trying to figure out what works for me.  I keep on coming back to Jazz IIIs because of the shape and size of them, and I've found that I vastly prefer the nylon one over the tortex one.

The tortex feels very slippery in my fingers and I have a hard time holding onto it when I try to play harder solos.  The nylon one is more textured and grippy and much easier to hold onto without having to use a death grip. 

That said, the tortex one is great for strummy songs (Wonderwall anyone?) because it is more slippery and glides across the strings nicely...if I can hold onto it...

Ok...I played this last night!  It's pretty fun!

Seriously!

I haven't...but I will right now!

I've made 3 full Dead Milkmen albums:

 

Big Lizard in My Backyard

Eat Your Paisley!

Bucky Fellini

 

...and I'm working toward Beelzebubba.

Bitchin Camaro! Bitchin Camaro!

(I thank you for your efforts!  That song and Punk Rock Girl rule!)

Just found a nice one!  The Ataris "Boys of Summer"!

That song rocks hard!

try frigid pink house of the rising sun

Ok...I'll check it out! Thanks!

@sandyd  I have the alantis morrisett king of pain cdlc if I can figure out how to get it on here i.ll post it

That would be great if you can! Thanks!

Blue on Black  Five Finger Death Punch

 

Disturbeed Land of Confusion

Disturbed did quite a few awesome covers! That's a good one! Thanks!

Don;t think there's cdlc for any of these, and their really should be.

THAT TOY DOLLS SONG ROCKS!!!! Haha...I love the band and am always surprised when I bump into anyone who's ever heard of them.  Pity too...Olga's an insanely good guitarist!

Halestorm's Bad Romance DLC is a pop cover I like.

 

There's a CDLC cover of Michael Jackson's (somewhat obscure song) They Don't Care About Us that is fun.  The tuning is non-standard so I don't play it super often but if I do end up in that tuning I do play it.

Yeah, that Halestorm cover rocks!  I think I like it more than the original.

Will check out that MJ cover...although since I have a Floyd on my guitar, alternate tunings are mostly verboten...lol

William Shatner doing Pulp's common people.

 

The disturbed doing Sounds of silence.

Man, that Disturbed cover is freaking great!! Thanks!

Haha...Shat...maybe not so much...lol

i know of a few really...alanis morriset doing king of pain by police..no cdlc tho

rob Thomas from matchbox 20 doing time after time from cindy lauper

john mayer does messages in the bottle from the police

metallica doing bob segar turn the page

5 finger death punch doin blue on black is real good  Kenny wayne sheppard cover

 

I don't think any are cdlc tho…..maybe put em on request list! someone may produce a cdlc of them

Man, I'd like cdlc for those first 3! Too bad.

Try Eric Burdon's remake of "Don't let me be misunderstood and Paint it black."

Awwww...no cdlc!  That Paint It Black cover is great!

IDK pop uhhhh...Alien Ant Farm's cover of Smooth Criminal?

That's a good one (although is it proper to play *ANY* Michael Jackson song any more? Lol)

I'll answer my own question...sheesh...lol

There's a great ska version of "Come On Eileen" by Save Ferris.  Super fun.

And, Brian Setzer does a banging version of "Sleepwalk"

haha...I was going to say Slade doing "Cum On Feel The Noise" is great too...but that's the original!  I didn't know that!

NOW, any others you can think of?

I just recently found that someone posted Paul Gilbert doing an awesome cover of ABBA's "Dancing Queen".

It was a totally random thing too, so it got me wondering if there's other similar CDLC covers out there?

Do you have a favorite you want to share?  I have no idea what to search for even if I were to try.
