62P-Bass Posted November 4, 2009 Posted November 4, 2009 (edited) Hi all, Does anyone know who played bass on Barry White's It's Ecstasy When You Lay Down Next to Me? I've looked online but can't find it anywhere. It's from the album Barry White Sings for Someone You Love. Thanks, Andrew P.S. If you haven't checked it out, it's a damn funky track. Robbie Williams based Rock DJ on it, but don't let that put you off... Edited November 5, 2009 by 62P-Bass Quote

EssentialTension Posted November 4, 2009 Posted November 4, 2009 I don't know who played bass but I love that song. Quote

The Funk Posted November 4, 2009 Posted November 4, 2009 Great tune! No idea who's on it though. Quote

Did you play bass on It's Ecstasy When You Lay Down Next to Me, from Barry White Sings for Someone You Love (1977)? It's one of my all-time favourite tracks! Cheers, Andrew London, UK Quote
