A bass player, or bassist is a musician who plays a bass instrument such as a double bass, bass guitar, keyboard bass or a low brass instrument such as a tuba or sousaphone. Different musical genres tend to be associated with one or more of these instruments. Since the 1960s, the electric bass is the standard bass instrument for rock and roll, jazz fusion, heavy metal, country, reggae and pop music. The double bass is the standard bass instrument for classical music, bluegrass, rockabilly, and most genres of jazz. Low brass instruments such as the tuba or sousaphone are the standard bass instrument in Dixieland and New Orleans-style jazz bands.
Despite the associations of different bass instruments with certain genres, there are exceptions. Some 1990s and 2000s rock and pop bands use a double bass, such as Barenaked Ladies; Indie band The Decemberists; and punk rock/psychobilly groups such as The Living End, Nekromantix, The Horrorpops, and Tiger Army. Some fusion jazz groups use a lightweight, stripped-down electric upright bass rather than a double bass. Some composers of modern art music use the electric bass in a chamber music setting. Some jazz big bands use electric bass. Some fusion, R&B and house music groups use synth bass or keyboard bass rather than electric bass. Some Dixieland bands use double bass or electric bass instead of a tuba. In some jazz groups and jam bands, the basslines are played by a Hammond organ player, who uses the bass pedal keyboard or the lower manual for the low notes.

Plot: Buttoned up junior attorney Sydney Babcock is right on track with her perfectly ordered life. She's got the perfect job at the perfect company, and she's about to marry the perfect guy. When a last minute assignment tears her away from her Midwestern bridal shower, she heads to exotic, chaotic Los Angeles where she runs smack into a wacky bunch of mismatched characters who comprise the remaining "entourage" of a long dead rock star named Eli Trainor. She must seek their help to locate and bring back her company's recently acquired assets; the master tapes of Eli Trainor's eagerly anticipated, never released second album. There's just one problem. Supposedly, the "only" masters went down with Eli in a tragic plane crash some thirty years ago. The scent of money is in the air and it's game on for Sydney as she tries to navigate through completely unfamiliar territory full of ulterior motives, silly old vendettas and good old fashioned greed. The only question is, are the locals truly trying to help Sydney find the lost masters or will Eli Trainor and "the music that might have been" always remain an almost perfect rock and roll mystery?

All alone
Makes a sound
Most wouldn't call a symphony
As he plays
Thinks of a maid
Sad and shuffling
She sings
Blow me a kiss
Before I drown
In sorrow me a kiss
Before I drown
He saw her
By the moon
Dress in hand
Her hips were swaying
Melancholy tune
Broken buckles
Tired lips, ooh
She was singing
Blow me a kiss
Before I drown
In sorrow me a kiss
Before I drown
[Incomprehensible]
She said I wanna be with the stars tonight
So I can fly above the earth
I wanna be with the stars tonight
So I can fly above
I wanna be with the stars tonight
