The Best Basslines Ever?

[Nazulu]

For the 'Best' I would say the bassline in the songs Sympathy for the Devil and Roundabout.

The most 'under-rated' is the bassline in Machine Gun by Jimi Hendrix.

I will always love the Paperboy theme.

I never get old of the bassline for Money by Pink Floyd

Peace Sells...
By Megadeth. One of my favourite songs and the bass is soo good at the start!

Anything by Rush. Geddy Lee, voted best bassist on the planet. End thread.

I'm listening to that on another tab.

Well I do know the most iconic one: the one to Under Pressure.

Carol Kaye wrote a few legendary ones as well, though can't quite remember any specific songs off the top of my head.

Toy Boy by Stuck in the sounds (its on GH World tour) lol pretty catchy sometimes me and my friend burst out going dodododo and so on

I've always liked the bassline on The Birthday Party's "Mutiny In Heaven." It's simple and doesn't really go anywhere, but it fits so well.

And this is pretty awesome, on the topic of basses: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jdYj7dMYwxM

REJECTED BY RANCID IS SUPER AWESOME

 

[Lordmarkus]

Under Pressure - Queen [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d-xVb1qsPCw] It's simple, it's easy but I love it

Three Days - Janes Addiction [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RpCCfazKxzk] Gotta love the pulloffs

400 Slag - Kent [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j0usH84l9X4] Mm, love it

 

[Rahheemme]

N.I.B. by Black Sabbath. Hands down.

Master Fu has taught you well, grasshopper.

Or rather, I taught Master Fu well.
