Cato Posted February 21, 2018 Posted February 21, 2018 I'd have to for Bernie Edwards 'Good Times'. Fantastic bassline and the royalties must be worth the proverbial bomb. Quote

Barking Spiders Posted February 26, 2018 Posted February 26, 2018 Probably I Get High On You by Sly Stone , with Bobby Vega on bass and not Larry G Quote
NickD Posted February 26, 2018 Posted February 26, 2018 Space Between Your Ears - Ozric Tentacles. It wouldn't have paid me, or attracted any fame, but it'd be worth it just to know created the soundtrack for so many... erm... experiences. 😊 2 Quote
AidanB Posted February 26, 2018 Posted February 26, 2018 (edited) I wish I'd written this bass line. I love it. In fact the whole album has great bass playing on it. Edited February 26, 2018 by AidanB 3 Quote

And that tone - Wetton nailed it beyond the call of duty For younger members who dont know the band / track I had to double-check that was the same Family that recorded Doll's House and Song For Me - quite a change in their sound over the years! (But yeah, that John Wetton bassline is superb, isn't it?) 1 Quote
fleabag Posted March 12, 2018 Posted March 12, 2018 You might like this too ! Not Wetton though - John Weider IIRC. 1 Quote
EliasMooseblaster Posted March 12, 2018 Posted March 12, 2018 As luck would have it, Youtube automatically brought that one up after Burlesque had finished - I don't normally let it autoplay but it does have its advantages sometimes! Quote
leschirons Posted March 13, 2018 Posted March 13, 2018 Probably the simplest one here but, How long, by Ace. Quote
