I've never played a bass, I play the guitar. But I'd think something from early AC/DC albums like "Livewire" or "Go Down" would be really easy.

I think the first song I learned was enter sandman

Hey dude, I too play bass (and I speak Hebrew as well). For songs to start with, really anything goes. Just think of a song you like that's relatively slow and go for some tabs. PM me if you feel like it.

Since you starting off and an Anthrax fan I suggest practice your picking or finger playing with a song like Got the Time. Once you have that down try the bass solo. If you cant do it no big deal just play the rythem.

I'm a bassist and the solo in Got The Time really isn't bad. The rest of the song takes more practice!

I am bass and guitar player. As far as what to learn--that really depends on your style, first thing I learned to play on bass was Orion(Metallica) or was it Peace Sells(Megadeth)

I reakon the Enter Sandman suggestion was a good one.

The Low End Rules!
Man I must be friggin old, the first song I learned to play on Bass was "Proud Mary" by CCR
I would say no matter what style of music your into always branch out to other stuff. It will only make you a better player in the end.

Suggestions:
Parliment (Boosty Collins)
Weather Report (Jaco Pastorius)
Gov't Mule (Allen Woody)
The Who (John Entwistle)

I could go on and on (I usually do)...................I was always interested more in who influenced my Favorite Bass Players as that gave me more of a look at how they developed their style.
