Yes, that one will do it :)
Edit to say.. When I first got my Ric, that was the first song I played along to. Now Ric gas free.

Great 'tache to accompany the bass face from the Hives there too. A moustache most definitely adds some brown to your tone.

lol, that's what I must be missing "brown to my tone"

I was a complete Rick nut when I started out - had three for a while including a 4080 double neck!!

From the Prog side of things, the guy who I reckon had the best Rick sound at the time - Neil Brewer of Druid. Detuned to D as well... unfortunately no video here but what a sound.

Also, rather better known, Jon Camp of Renaissance, here in a live Sight and Sound show...

If you prefer a flatwound kind of thing, 10cc's Graham Gouldman - the first few albums were basically all Rick and interestingly I noticed video of GG and 10cc at Fairport's Cropredy festival in 2013 and lo and behold there was a black Rick again!

Lastly but not leastly in the flats category, David Paton of Pilot - Magic as they say. Mr P also played on Kate Bush's first album and although alledgedly the bass on Wuthering Heights was played by producer Andrew Powell, it sounds suspiciously like Paton's Rick to me and indeed Paton says he played on it - funny old world.

Cheers
