The Meters - a collection of classic funky basslines Posted by: subersibo
Video duration: 560 seconds The Meters is one of the funkiest, most soulful bands ever. Their music is simple but undeniably groovy. I used a Fender P-bass (Japan) thru a Lowdown LD150 amp.

Boogie Oogie Oogie - bassline Posted by: subersibo
Video duration: 211 seconds My rendition of the 70's disco track. Bass & vocals on this song were done by the beautiful & talented Janice Marie Johnson. I never figured out how to do the last note of the solo, sounds like she bent a note on the G-string on the 14th fret (A) and bent it a half step. Just couldn't get my hands to do it. I didn't see her doing it in some videos I watched though. Related: 70s, a, bass, bassline, boogie, disco, fender, honey, janice, jazz, johnson, marie, of, oogie, retro, taste |

Lovely Day - bassline Posted by: subersibo
Video duration: 471 seconds A nice, happy tune. Sometimes you get lucky and start at the same time the cd plays so I decided to upload this take. Since I'm a forgetful person (I probably won't remember to play this after a while), I play it at a slower tempo after the orig track so it would be easy for me to review it when the time comes. Hope you enjoy it! Related: 6, amp, bass, bassline, bill, classic, day, fender, line, lovely, lowdown, music, p, precision, r&b, soul, withers |

Bounce,Rock,Skate,Roll - bassline Posted by: subersibo
Video duration: 239 seconds This song has a very similar pattern to Chic's "Good Times" (I play some of it after the 2nd verse). Trying out the envelope filter effect on my Lowdown LD150 amp, I set it at about 50%. On the bass with metronome part (at about 3:20) I set the filter a bit higher (more quack), just experimenting.

Still a Friend of Mine (INCOGNITO) - bassline Posted by: subersibo
Video duration: 309 seconds A little out-of-sync but I don't know how to fix it. Here's a tune from British R&B band (some call it acid jazz)Incognito featuring Randy Hope-Taylor (Basia, Jeff Beck) on bass. I used my Carvin LB70P bass which I haven't used in a while.

Give It All You Got - fusion bassline Posted by: subersibo
Video duration: 264 seconds Probably my favorite fusion tune. Finally got around to learning it yesterday. The original bassist probably played much of this in the 1st position but I'm more comfortable playing it this way.

SADE basslines Posted by: subersibo
Video duration: 214 seconds 4 examples of Paul Denman's playing. Of course, there are a lot more great songs off the Best of Sade cd and I'll try to post other songs in full. Most of these are simplistic and repeat for the duration of the songs. However, staying in the pocket isn't always easy.

You Are the Universe - bassline Posted by: subersibo
Video duration: 195 seconds Awesome track from the Brand New Heavies featuring the ultra-groovy Andrew Levy on bass. I just started playing in church so I got my hands on this MIM Fender Jazz 5 string. Hope you like this track, it has a short and sweet groove-oriented 8-bar bass solo. My B-string seems to be slightly off tune, that'll teach me to tune up before playing.

INCOGNITO bassline slowed down (Still a Friend of Mine) Posted by: subersibo
Video duration: 345 seconds Here's the same song from my other vid but slowed down and split into sections for anyone wishing to learn this great bassline. Some parts of the vid are a little out-of-sync but I dunno how to fix it. (It's kinda cool so you can see what the fingerings are before hearing it, haha).

Rescue Me - bassline Posted by: subersibo
Video duration: 170 seconds A 60's tune from Fontella Bass. After years of playing jazz-type basses, I finally got my hands on my first precision bass (a MIJ Fender)! I just got it yesterday; put on some D'addario flats on it. I'm still getting used to the wider neck profile and slightly higher action, not to mention the feel of flats.

Your Love is King (SADE) - bassline Posted by: subersibo
Video duration: 205 seconds Paul Denman's is one of my favorite pocket players. His lines are simple but always so deep and groovy. This was a big hit for Sade. Related: bass, bassline, carvin, denman, is, jazz, king, lb70p, love, music, paul, sade, your |

Magnify Jesus - bassline Posted by: subersibo
Video duration: 244 seconds One of my favorite songs to play in church. I changed a few things, particularly the solo. I cancelled the bass track using my KORG pandora and bypassed amp/speaker simulation to get the pure unaltered sound of the bass. I'm loving the sound of my newly installed Fralin pickups, they really improve the sound a lot.
