Bass tone - Cool for Cats, Squeeze

[JJTee]

This came on the wireless today and for the first time I really had a proper listen to the bass, and specifically the tone in the verses. A bit tricky to separate the bass and keys, but it sounds like a thick, chewy chorus effect on the bass to me? Any ideas? Anyway, whatever it is, it sounds good!

Phaser. Not used enough these days. Suprisingly retro.

Eh? 1979 is pretty darn retro these days

I mean...using phaser these days is suprisingly retro. If. You. Were. To.

I dunno. It's not so long ago that I was doing some jazz fusion with injections of phaser from time to time. Everything old is new again.

Hmm, never considered it might be a phaser. The ones I’ve used created more of a subtle wah effect.

The internet tells me the bass player was Harry Kakoulli.
