Wrote and recorded a bass solo today. I'm not particularly proud of that. The bass guitar should know it's place. Maybe the odd note cascading to the fore once in a while or the occasional nifty riff, but a whole 45 second solo? I'm sure even Sting wouldn't contemplate such behaviour.
Ideally I would have a French Horn for the solo part but French Horn session musicians cost a hell of a lot of Euros. I've only got a £30 budget for the entire album and most of that's already gone on pitta bread and dips.
