Fantastic bass line, TM Stevens I believe?

Same era, And The Beat Goes On by The Whispers, superb bass by Leon Sylvers III.

Some info for you - the bass on Black Velvet is a [b]sample[/b] of a fretless bass. It was played by the producer Dave Tyson. Probably on an Akai S900 Sampler.

There is no shame in admitting that here. You are umongst people who understand. The bass is what people dance to so it has to work.

Some nice 5 string bass action. . . as there is on All Saints' Never Ever.
