I know it's sad at age 49, but I still like Boney M! Rasputin & Painterman just so damnned catchy! Wern't they all from Germany?

There was a bunch of top studio players in Germany in the 70's called 'Munich Machine'
Frank Farian used these quite a lot i think - there was two or three Bassists,
and one of those Bassists, who was extremely busy studio wise at the time was 'Dieter Petereit'
But what tracks he played on, who know's - more than likely most of them.

I admit to loving the best of the BoneyM stuff, the basslines were superb, but then again so was all the rest of it.

Its definitely a guilty pleasure though!

Gary Unwin and Les Hurdle, mostly.

I used to regularly play Painterman in a Disco band I was in. Stonking bass line

Zombie thread 🧟, I’ve played a couple, great Basslines and not the easiest I’d say
