I can't believe I forgot 777-9311. That song doesn't even need words....the bass and drums could stand alone.

Easy...


let's work
7779311

and...that super funky version of 'kiss' he did alone with the bass guitar at that MPLS club Dr. Mambo's or something. I heard a tape where he comes on to join the band and starts playing this super funky bass workout. It turns into Kiss.

BassLines for Songs "777" & "Let's Work"

Funkiest Bass Played in a Song was The Long Version of la la la hee hee hee-

When that fool said " well you just going to do the line, Give me that Bass!!!"

It's hard to come after that!!!

IF you haven't heard it, you're in for a real treat.. Go find it and call it funk therapy!!!
