Lust U Always

'La La La He He Hee', 'Joint 2 Joint' and one of the versions of 'Crystal Ball'

I believe we've already gone over this. It the bass solo from 2 Nigs United 4 West Compton. Followed closely by the bass solo in JOint 2 Joint

Emancipation

COME! COME COME COME!!! I don't remember if he played it himself or if Sonny or someone else did but JEEZAS, that is one of the GREATEST basslines ever written!

THE DANCE ELECTRIC IS A TIGHT ASS FUNKY SONG WITH A GREAT BASSLINE THROUGHOUT! I'VE BEEN LOOKING FOR THIS SONG FOREVER!! CAN'T FIND IT ANYWHERE, I DOWNLOADED IT A WHILE AGO FROM AUDIOGALAXY AND ACCIDENTALLY ERASED IT!

THE LONG LIVE VERSION OF JOY IN REPETITION (HELL YEAH ARE YOU KIDDING ME??)!!!

THE ONE

A LOVE BIZARRE

TEMPTATION

DAYS OF WILD (PLAY THAT MUTHAFUCKIN BASS!!!)

DOROTHY PARKER

i could go on and on...

When Doves Cry.

La La La He He Hee (Highly Explosive) has an excellant bass part as does 'The Line'.

Joy in Repitition of the ONA live. Larry's bass is tight on that!

What about Last Heart?

Currently my fav bass part is from one of the ONA american
soundchecks.

I think it was Buffalo, but I'm not sure.

Anyway, it's a performance of "4 The Tears In Your Eyes"
and it's wicked.

The bass is not virtuoso or anything, but it's just so
clearly audible and up front. I love that bassline and
it fits the song perfectly in that way.

It's the performance where Prince starts off and then
says "Takumi, can I get some tea?".

Also, the bass on "Days Of Wild" live at Glam Slam 94
is amazing. It's a 13:41 min version including pieces
of TheExodusHasBegun and Hair.

The performance has an external bass orgasm that is
unlike any bassplaying I've ever heard him do before
or since.

Especially on headphones that performance rocks!

You talked about that one a couple of times before and still don't know which one it is. On which CD is it?

I'm not sure which cd it's on. I got it on a tape first
time round and then I downloaded it on fileshare.

All I know is that it's from a performace where he played
blistering versions of Interactive before DOW and NOW right
after it.

Interactive
Days Of Wild
Now

Now is also stretched beyond recognition with a long
external musical bit and then parts of a song called
"Babies makin Babies" and some cool guitarwork.

I'd gladly provide you with a copy, but I've only got
it on MD now and I don't have the means of transferring
that onto my pc anymore

What about the bass licks on "What's my name" from CB?

squirrelgrease said:

1. 2 Nigs United
2. La La La He He Hee (Ext)
3. Joint 2 Joint (way too short...)

Climax, the sped up bass solo in La La La He He Hee, Irresistable Bitch, the bassline for She's Always in My Hair, and of course, Let's Work. Speaking of Let's Work, has anyone watched the DVD of Victor Wooten live at Bass Day? In the extras, he talks about his heros and demonstrates some techniques. He plays the hell out of Let's Work for about 30 seconds.

Best base - I hate U !

No doubt its NEW POSITION!

Go listen. Fantastic bass line.
