Bunion Posted May 1, 2022 Share Posted May 1, 2022 (edited) Nice simple solo from Sean Hurley playing with vertical horizon Nothing too fancy, just the right notes, a lovely tone, a little bit of octave at one point and nod towards whitesnake at the end.

Bass solos just about the right length, don't want to over-egg the pudding after all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nilorius Posted May 1, 2022 Author Share Posted May 1, 2022 I actually meant clear bass songs, but i am happy that You reply reply with different variants. So, at this case i would like to add one more track. A solo from Gary Willis - It's only music. It's amazing solo.

Maude Posted May 1, 2022 Share Posted May 1, 2022 John Entwistle again. Let's just say the whole of 'The Real Me' is a bass solo. 😉 I know, I know! 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr4stringz Posted May 1, 2022 Share Posted May 1, 2022 Muzz Skillings rarely gets the props he deserves for his playing on the first two Living Colour albums. Nice little bass solo on this one off Vivid. Solo around 2:20. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hobbayne Posted May 1, 2022 Share Posted May 1, 2022 Nigel Harrisons solo in Atomic. Just an E minor pentatonic really, but I love it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cato Posted May 1, 2022 Share Posted May 1, 2022 JPJ's little breaks in Good Times Bad Times. Short, sweet and actually enhance the song. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ambient Posted May 1, 2022 Share Posted May 1, 2022 Michael Manring, the enormous room. I started transcribing and learning this a while ago. The tuning is really complicated on it, he uses the de-tuners on his Hyperbass throughout. https://music.apple.com/gb/album/the-enormous-room/1595552826?i=1595552846 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In similar way, like the Gary Willis track you posted, these players of a high standard are lyrical and melodic when soloing around the changes or, performing solo pieces. They know in their head, exactly what the next note (or phrase) will be, rather than letting the fingers aimlessly lead the way searching for notes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
