Say It Ain't So, Weezer.

I have one recorded on my phone, but guess what?  I've left my phone in the studio since Tuesday - that's almost a week.  Thank god I'm not a millennial...

 

Edit: You've guessed it, I'm in no position to record...

I’m stumped I was thinking the clue refers to albums with numbers in the title so that got me thinking maybe something from Stone Temple Pilots or Pearl Jam but they only released 1 album each that is just a number???? Am I at all close

but reading the post above great shout!!

You were on the right track. I seem to remember his first four albums were all called "Peter Gabriel", and Weezer also released several eponymous albums.

OK.  Finally got to record one.  Unfortunately this just highlights that I am better at recording instruments than playing the bloody things!  

Dead easy, especially for church bassists 😉

Apologies for the rather abrupt editing, but this is the only bit of the song I could play consistently well enough! It does contain what I think is the most distinctive part of the bassline so it should hopefully be recognisable.

Sounds like the not inconsiderable work of Mani!

It is indeed Sir Gary of Mounfield. I even played it on a hollowbody for authenticity 😉

I've nothing else recorded right now (that one took me bloody ages!) so hopefully someone else has?

Bloody heck mate, you made a great job of it! I can easily believe the time it took. I've been playing a song from that same 2nd album for months (track 1), and I'm still not quite there yet!!

Probably because I don't have the right bass... 😔

I'll record a few snippets of basslines for the quiz now in a minute...
