Mykesbass Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 Loved this when she appeared on Later a couple of years back, but the original has a terrific Bob Babbit bass line: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U-Nc4MW4yr0 Here's the bass-less, but still very tasty Jools Holland Later version: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sHulRYtCdY8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
casapete Posted June 7, 2015 Share Posted June 7, 2015 Great stuff. Going to see Gladys at the end of June, hoping she has a bassist who can recreate the wonderful feel of her amazing catalogue of material. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chris_b Posted June 7, 2015 Share Posted June 7, 2015 This is a great song. Bob Babbitt usually gets passed over when bass lines are getting praised. One of my favourite bass tones and lines is his playing on Midnight Train To Georgia. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KevB Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 Always liked Tears Of A Clown and War with BB on bass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Japhet Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 Bob Babbitt was a fantastic player. Often unnoticed next to Jamerson etc but in my opinion it doesn't get much better than the stuff he did with Marvin Gaye. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
