Which album do you think has the toughest basslines to learn or play along with? Can be Stu or Nick or Others, doesn't matter who played bass. I'm asking cause i have Emergency on Planet Earth, Synkronised, and (just today) The Return of the Space Cowboy learned.
I think Return Of the Space Cowboy is the toughest. The Kids is pretty fast. |

I really like Stuart Zender's work on Emergency On Planet Earth, and it blows me away that he was 19 years old when he recorded that!

I think Return Of the Space Cowboy is the toughest. The Kids is pretty fast. | Im a Jamiro-fan, and I think you´ve posted a very interesting poll.
Maybe beacuse Im a rookie player, all jamiroquai´s basslines seem difficult to me, so I´d ask which one is the easiest to play jaj.
By the way, I voted for "dynamite" |

ROTSC comes second.

+1 for Dynamite, very tricky... |

I'm really surprised dynamite is getting votes.
keep the votes coming. |

The easiest album would probably be A Funk Oddessey.

Synkronized was pretty easy too. |
