Which bass line changed your life?
One of the most life changing bass lines for me was Cinderella Man by Rush. The way Geddy Lee moves around the fret board was so amazing to me. Not to mention that during a very interesting solo from Alex Lifeson, Geddy Lee plays a really cool riff that keeps building on itself with ghost notes everywhere.
Pat Travers' bass player Mars Cowling on the studio version of Snortin' Whiskey. Once you dissect it musically, you'll know why!
I love how Paul could support the melody and get still go off and do this own thing. And it would still fit....
I was born in 1956. LOL I knew one of the songs. What inspired me to bass Was Jack Bruce in Sunshine of your love.. Simpliostic I know, but still what bent me.
Mc Cartney all the way, amazing bass player !!!!!
My inspiration for picking up the bass was Led Zeppelin’s
The Lemon Song
The Song Remains The Same
By none other than John Paul Jones AKA Jonsey.
Another One Bites The Dust, Pamela, Roundabout, Spirit of the Radio, Falling to Pieces. There you go.
(Bonus Track: Trippin' on a Hole in a Paper Heart by STP)
Yes, I CAN COUNT Schism! After years of trying, I figured out it's (5+4+3)/4. Yes you can count it in (5+7)/4, but the phrases descend counts by 5, 4, 3. It just seems to flow better and fits into Tool's overall structure of patterns.
Wolstenholme isn't human. Only a machine can play that many notes for that long.
Life changing for me were a lot of '70s R&B songs that I heard on the radio along with Roundabout by Yes and much of the Deep Purple Machine Head album.
Paul is so underrated as a bass composer. Nothing athletic, just perfect for the tune. Always love and study his stuff still. The small amount of time I've had in the studio, the really good tracks were somewhat by accident or chance. It's when the engineer is listening back when I walk in and overhear, "Whoa, how cool is that?" Sometimes unplanned. Then re-learned for later. But I'm not like these others in your list.
Mine was My name is mud by Les Claypool ❤
Vera Cruz - Bassplayer: Nico Assumpção (Larry Coryell Bahia Live )
Marta - Bass player: Fernando Rosa (Ed Motta)
Parabéns - Bass player: Alex Malheiros
(Marcos Valle)
Dear Limmertz - Bass player: Alex Malheiros (Azymuth)
Bass player Junior Groovador covers Get Lucky (Pharrell Williams)
Good ones! "Something" is a perfect example of throughly overplaying, yet it's absolutely perfect. My 5: Starship Trooper -- Chris Squier Bernadette -- James Jamerson What is Hip -- Rocco Prestia - Back in the Village -- Steve Harris Aimless Lady -- Mel Schacher
Super Trooper and One of Us, by ABBA. Great breakdown of these 5 gems!!! Never realised the octave drop in "Something"; always played that song as a guitarist!!! Gonna have to hit it on bass now. Thank you, Andrew!!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉😊
I was unfamiliar with "One of Us" until I played the Mama Mia show. All the bass parts were exact transcriptions and One of Us was not easy! It wound up being my favorite track to play. An amazing part.
@@NelsonMontana1234 YES!!!!! Incredible bass line. When I first heard it as a kid, I thought, "Nah, that's gotta be synths bass, maybe a Moog". When I started playing bass, it's one of the first ones that I tackled. One of my favourites to play along with now!!! Try this one: "Mayor of Simpleton" by XTC. Let me know what you think of that one!!! :) Enjoy, Nelson!!!
@@joecastanza9822 That's a great melodic part. If you're interested, I did this ABBA medley that features the bass. ua-cam.com/video/1f8YCPI-_Hs/v-deo.html
Spot on to James on ain’t no mountain high enough . I’m waiting for McCartney now. Geddy Lee . McCartney is always shows him playing a Hofner when in fact he was playing a 4001 or Fender Jazz. I knew you would pick Something. Definitely a master glass in melody .
9:47 Matt Bellamy wrote the bass line.
This list is awesome! I'm a huge fan of Steve Harris bass lines and Iron Maiden as well as Gedde Lee and Rush. But I'd be remiss if I didnt add John Logde and Moody Blues. Songs like Question or Story in your eyes and I'm just a singer...great bass lines that add so much to the songs. Under rated fir sure in my opinion.
I'm going to go out and say it. Chris Wolstenholme is possibly the strongest bassist currently touring. If you're inclined to see them live watch how effortlessly he plays, it so casual and it rivals swiss trains for time keeping. Even in the studio he's know as a one take wonder. Hysteria is a great example of his playing. Go back to their second album and listen to the bass the whole way through. Amazing gems in there
The opening line to “Hysteria” is pretty epic IMHO. That one alone at least makes him someone to notice and appreciate for sure.
1:45 Because Jamerson originally was an upright bass player, he would play this line starting on the 2nd fret on the G-string, and use open strings instead of the 5th fret. He could get away with it because he used heavy gauge strings.
No Primus or Rush on this list is insane to me!!!
Longview
Higher Ground (RHCP)
Sir Duke
Tommy the Cat
Roundabout
Oh my gosh yes with Sir Duke!
Where's For Whom the Bell Tolls!? That stuff changed a child me.
A #1 valeu todo o vídeo. Parabéns!
I think your audience is considerably younger than am I. I would have put Jaco Pastorius' "Birdland" or Chris Squire's "Roundabout" against any of these for influence.
Another great video!
Thank you 😊
Mine are:
My Friend of Misery - Metallica
Never too much - Luther Vandross
Idiot Box - Incubus
Mr Moon - Jamiroquai
Everything he played on - Jamerson
I guessed 7/4 for schism. I guess I was partially right.
Green Day: Longview
Nirvana : Lounge Act
L'Arc en Ciel: Blurry Eyes
Led Zeppelin: Whole Lotta Love and The Song Remains The Same
Tool: The Pot
I have the exactly same Jazz bass. I put EMG pickups in mine and I wish I hung on to the original ones but I didn't. What year is yours? Mines a 96
I thought that George Harrison wrote the bass line and wanted sir Paul to play it exactly note for note.
Not true at all, in fact harrison was demanding Paul make it much less busy
@@alexparsa8330so glad Paul didn’t listen to George’s “advice”
Just the opposite , it was all Paul. George pushed back but came to his senses .Paul also sing the high harmony on “ I don’t know, I don’t know,” etc.
Abe Laboriel srs work with Koinonia
NIB. Geezer
La Ta Ra Lis
And to think, John Taylor never took a lesson, and he produced what he did was fate.
Teen town
Don't you forget Marcus Miller? Jaco Pastorius? Richard Bona ? Marc King ? Alain Caron ? John Pattitucci ? Abraham Laboriel ? Nathan East? And probably the man who's recorded the more of albums Leland Sklar? Be serious
Then the video would be an hour long. You could ad some others like Billy Sheehan, Nick Begs, but he just chose a small selection. I don't see what is wrong with that?
#3 and #4 aren't interesting at all... the rest, reasonablely ok
