On today's blog the boys look at songs where the Bass is the main instrument. The one steering the ship. The one driving the tune! A musical theme brought to us by our longtime member Mr. T! As always, Rob gets us started...
Rob Nirvana - "Lounge Act"
Jamiroquai - "(Don't) Give Hate A Chance"
Mr. T The Rolling Stones - "Emotional Rescue"
G-Man Rancid - "Journey To The End Of East Bay"
I struggled with this one a bit. Landed on this Rancid tune, but even though it has a killer bass riff by the legendary Matt Friedman, wasn't sure if it really drove the song...
Jaco Pastorius - "Come On, Come Over"
Then I remembered about this beauty! Jaco is like the Hendrix to many bass players. A diety in the field. A virtuoso and a visionary. Taken too soon, like so many young legends
Doug Paul McCartney & Wings - "Silly Love Songs"
Dano Les Claypool & The Holy Mackarel - "The Awakening"
