I was trying to find a clip of that but was unsuccessful! brilliant Sir Renhoek, brilliant!

I like those percussive bass lines too but a true walking bassline is one that "walks" the notes individually within the chordal structure of the song such as:

It starts @ 00:39...

Queen - Another One Bites The Dust
Michael Jackson - Who Is It (sorta)
Chic - Good Times

I realize it is sort of redundant I think "Good Times" may have shaped later basslines like 112 too, even. Sorta one of those grooves that changed everything after it. Did you like the Youtube?

You still knew what he meant though. It's more of a walk, and a pause. Step, step, step, oohh watch the dog poo. Step, step, step....ooh, what the dog poo.
