Stevegods Posted September 10, 2014 Posted September 10, 2014 Look forward to seeing him in a couple of weeks Should be a great gig .. I can not let this thread go without giving a shout to my mate Francis who plays bass in a band .... Not in the same league as most of these guys .. but Incognito think he's ok enough to give him the gig Nice one Francis
Chris Turnbull Posted September 10, 2014 Posted September 10, 2014 Great thread - liked the guy playing 'The Night' - wondered what he'd do when he got to the bridge between verse and chorus where it really kicks off, but he absolutely nailed it - quite a hard part to work out too, I reckon A few nice basslines that do it for me - not particularly fancy playing (apart from Brainstorm) but right on the money:- Bobbi Humphrey - Harlem River Drive Bobby Reed - The time is right for love King Tutt - You got me hung up https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xGc4asrJnB4 Brainstorm - We're on our way home Couple of others that really come to life bass-wise on big sound systems are Cissy Houston 'I just don't know what to do with myself' and Joe Hicks 'Funky', which for me kicks some serious arse in the final furlong Cheers, Chris.
Pete S Posted September 10, 2014 Posted September 10, 2014 My favourite bass players, Leroy Sibbles of The Heptones and Studio One session man, some of the incredible bass lines he invented for Studio One that have been used over and over again...and Jah Wobble on PIL's album Metal Box...
Stockholmsoulfox Posted September 10, 2014 Posted September 10, 2014 And this is James Jamerson (solo) - Bernadette, very best of the best. marvellous..
Simsy Posted September 11, 2014 Posted September 11, 2014 What is that female vocal of Lonely Girl? Bass play out at the end of the track is brilliant.
Heisenberg Posted September 15, 2014 Posted September 15, 2014 My favourite Meters-song / jam "Ain't no Use" with George Porter jr. on bass. First part is sublime and I wouldn't mind hearing it at a nighter, second part is when Porter and his colleagues let loose.
Tolbert Posted September 15, 2014 Posted September 15, 2014 I love these bass lines: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BjGILKh2X7E https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OJB6Ld2O0pI

Andreas B Posted September 16, 2014 Posted September 16, 2014 This bassline cooks and then some, fantastic tune too
Soulof Posted September 16, 2014 Posted September 16, 2014 No introduction needed for the song but bass player on Harvey Averne Dozen Never learned to dance work ever so hard. Great to play air bass to!
