Lowender Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 [quote name='12stringbassist' timestamp='1263912918' post='717910'] Jim Lea of Slade did a truly mean bass / violin solo in his day. Here's the one he did at Slade's last ever UK show in Liverpool in 1983 [/quote] Holy cow, that's hilarious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve-bbb Posted May 18, 2013 Share Posted May 18, 2013 (edited) [quote name='Dr.Dave' timestamp='1337877996' post='1666919'] for me - the best bass solo's the one the player thought about doing and then figured the song would be better off without it!! I like the idea of essential bass parts in songs rather than solo's in the sense I think we mean solo. For instance - who can imagine the change in the middle of Fleetwood Mac's 'Chain' without McVie's part? Who doesn't look forward to the four 'solo'd' bass notes in 'Crazy little Thing called Love'? Who can no admire Macca making a very average 'Silly Love Songs' into a far better song by lifting it with his bass line. That's what it's about - listen to your song and make it better. [/quote] [quote name='Dingus' timestamp='1368810047' post='2081885'] Exactly this in at least 90% of cases . Very few solos can beat a good " hook "bassline , which is surely far more of a true test of a bass player's skills . Look at players like James Jamerson and Joe Osborn - everything they played was in effect as important and as prominent as a solo , because it was so integral to the song as a whole .
