Favorite all time bassline!

[shinobi]

just to name two

fugazi - repeater
the drum and the bass are one. sounds so tribal and primitive

jaco pastorius - donna lee
i love the triplets

tool - aenema
i just like it

 

[peagee]

Anything Jamiroquai.

George Benson - Lady Love Me (One More Time)

Since this is about bass players, who else hates Ben Kenney?
No offence.

 

[litford]

i think jamiroquai's space cowboy is groove-assed
hurmmm.. stefan lessard's line in "stay"

and with regards to ben kenney.. well, i think he's done alot in achieving incubus's new sound -)

repetitive progressive and funky house basslines get to me as well

and old led zep

wot does this teach us? you can't say "no" to the funky assed low!

 

[Z3r0_G]

that thing you do.

really.. it's just groovy.

and the one that gets me is crossroads by cream.

go have a listen. esp during that solo

 

[hofner]

O yeah Stay by U2...bass line dam simple but nice.

 

[AiraTekkan]

that thing you do.

really.. it's just groovy.

ah yes. i forgot about that. i do jam it sometimes...and i learnt the bass for it just because it was so fun.

 

[hifi_killer]

muse - hysteria
rhcp - higherground (its a cover though)

Ben Kenney is probably going with the band's new direction. For long-time fans of Incubus, his approach = not so desirable.

 

[basshole]

the best bassline of all time is Michael Jackson's 'Billie Jean'!!

 

[3notesAbar]

New bassline of this week: John Mayer's No Such Thing.

New bassline of the following week: Jamiroquai's Love Foolosophy.

Abt Ben Kenney

Its just that I bought Incubus Alive at Red Rocks, and thought it was going to be a fun concert, but turns out, Ben Kenney is like soloing almost all the way! I can't even enjoy the music... just too difficult. No doubt he has chosen great notes and stuff, but definitely not all the way la.. i feel sick.. no offense again man..

 

[hofner]

How can we forget ramble on by Led Zep. Pure melodic stuff,

 

[rottenramone]

..

yeah.... ramble on's bassline is unforgettable man.

 

[guitarnub]

cake - i will survive

lotsa RHCP stuff

 

[3notesAbar]

Its just that I bought Incubus Alive at Red Rocks, and

wow i gotta hear that haha.

 

[AgingYouth]

Eh... I know Radiohead's 'National Anthem''s bassline is only 2 notes. But it's pretty killer for just 2 notes... If you know the song, you can definitely remember the bassline...

 

[hofner]

haha 2 notes...will check it out

 

[clicktokill]

personally, i like the basslines in incubus. and the ones by no use for a name.

just me ah.

 

[AvonRellets]

What inspired me to pick up the bass guitar was the bassline from No Doubt's "Sunday Morning". Listened to a lot of ska then.

Another great bassline I like alot is RHCP's "Aeroplane"

 

[Panopticon-3]

i love basslines from bands like Korn, Dream Theater, Cannibal Corpse, RHCP and even Depeche mode...
