Captain Bassman Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 Been listening to this beautiful song again after many years (guaranteed lay, every time BTW!! ) and the bass line has really caught my ear. It sounds like Chuck Rainey but since I don't have any sleeve notes I can't be sure. Anyone in the know? CB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ETA: Don't forget Minnie broke the rules with "Lovin You" - no bass player. Meh. Edited March 8, 2011 by Lo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And, she kind of broke the rules of the time with the lyrics on IML too. 'Will you come inside me'... Say no more Min! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spongebob Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 Great artist. Check out her first album, 'Come To My Garden'. Excellent upright work on there. Actually, all her albums are great.....compilation called 'Les Fleurs' gives a good overview to any new fans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grahamd Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 Superb Minnie, 'I am the black gold...' with Rotary Connection, absolutely timeless. She was receptionist at Chess records too apparently +1 to Les Fleurs as a great compilation, funky as f**k! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
