iconic Posted November 17, 2013 Share Posted November 17, 2013 (edited) I heard this on the radio a while back and thought, what a great excuse to buy a 5 string, the bassline sounded so smooth, thick and creamy... I heard the original by France Gaul (?) on holiday in Ibiza, ahh, takes me back...the long highlights and curly perms, skin tight shorts, airtex tops & that was just me & then promptly forgot about it all....until I found this video this afternoon. Now, I don't really think it's 'live' per se, more a filmed 'performance' then audio dubbed after? I [i]think[/i] I can see the keyboards in time with the bassline, I could be wrong though, but not knowing jack about synths, is the bassline synth' derived or done with a proper bass? Nothing really happens until 1:24 in. Whatever quite a good workout on a bass, quite a few chords kicking around in this song to play over.

Nice track, though, and it has inspired me to get Mrs Dingus to make me an omlette for my tea . She needs the exercise.
