Mykesbass Posted January 11, 2011 Posted January 11, 2011 QUOTE (Mykesbass @ Jan 11 2011, 03:48 PM) * Son of a Preacher Man - Tommy Cogbill/Dusty Springfield [quote name='simon1964' post='1085659' date='Jan 11 2011, 04:09 PM']Cracking bassline - I played it for a charity gig I was involved in a couple of years ago. Brilliant line, which is a lot harder to play (well!) than you first think.[/quote] Not harder than I first thought - it terrifies me Quote
cetera Posted January 11, 2011 Posted January 11, 2011 (edited) There are far too many great bass lines out there but some faves that come to mind immediately are: Chicago - What's This World Comin' To? (Peter Cetera) Doobie Brothers - Double Dealin' Four Flusher (Tiran Porter) Toy Matinee - Queen Of Misery (Guy Pratt) Talk Talk - It's My Life (Paul Webb ) Ian Dury & The Blockheads - Hit Me With Your Rhythm Stick (Norman Watt-Roy) Edited January 11, 2011 by cetera Quote
Mykesbass Posted January 12, 2011 Posted January 12, 2011 [quote name='Wil' post='1085654' date='Jan 11 2011, 04:06 PM']Did he also play on Dusty Springfield's "Take a Little Piece of my Heart"? That's an incredible line.[/quote] Probably not as the album that came from was recorded in the UK. He has a pretty impressive CV though: [url="http://www.allmusic.com/artist/tommy-cogbill-p65382/credits"]http://www.allmusic.com/artist/tommy-cogbill-p65382/credits[/url] Quote
Tech Posted January 12, 2011 Posted January 12, 2011 agree with all of these. although surprised with all the jam mentions that no-one has called this one: Quote
DazBoot88 Posted January 14, 2011 Posted January 14, 2011 Gil Scott Heron - Is That Jazz Primus - Hamburger Train Many others but my minds gone blank Quote
Lysdexia Posted January 14, 2011 Posted January 14, 2011 Ceremony - New Order. The Murder of Love - Propaganda. Animal Bar - Red Hot Chili Peppers Dancing in the Moonlight - Thin Lizzy Our Song - Yes. Will You Cry - Chic Crush - Jennifer Paige Too many to mention - and pretty much everything by favourites like Mick Karn, Derek Forbes, Flea, Chris Squire, Jamerson, Barry Adamson. Bass is better than sex. Quote

purpleblob Posted January 17, 2011 Posted January 17, 2011 Must search BC and see if I've done this before and whether my choices have changed but for now I'd say (and in no particular order) Xanadu - Rush (I'm sure I could list many more Geddy Lee lines, but this was one of the first that I heard when I got into Rush) Tempus Fugit - Yes Ramble On - Led Zeppelin Good Times - Chic Hit me with your rhythm stick - Ian Dury & the Blockheads Holy Spirit - Yves Carbone I'm gonna tear your playhouse down - Paul Young (could list quite a few of Pino's 80's work, including Go West and more Paul Young) Come on, Come over - Jaco Pastorius (could mention others by Jaco, but this one's just damn catchy) Blood Brothers - Iron Maiden Blow your mind - Jamiroquai That'll do for now Quote
