Cool bass lines

[kevhogAZ]

Man, this section is slow moving. Let's get it a little attention. I was out working in the garage the other day, and heard some cool bass lines in some songs, so I thought I'd list a couple of my favorites, and then some other people could post some, and we could get this section of the board moving, again. Here they are:

Alice Cooper, Schools out
A Perfect Circle, Judith
Iron Maiden, The Trooper

Go ahead, don't be shy, list a couple.

Re: Cool bass lines

Peabud - yer right, thanks for catching that - after a while the Black Sabbath catalog kinda runs together [img]graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]
It does lead into NIB but it's a separately named track, which is actually a segue from Behind The Wall Of Sleep into NIB.

ok let's face it, the best bass lines are on Motown records... either played by James Jamerson (like Marvin Gaye's "What's Going On" ) or Bob Babbitt (like The Temptations "Ball Of Confusion") most influental electric bass playing ever... they influenced everyone
