The Young Guy | | | | | Easily one of the most original and one of the first bass solos I know of has to be by John Entwistle on the song My Generation. |

High Heeled Sneakers off of Chuck Mangione's "Alive" album. Tony Levin on bass with Steve Gadd on drums. It still sticks with me 26 years after I first heard it. |

Tom Kriss of The James Gang plays a nice solo in their version of "Lost Woman Blues".

| | | | Tony Levin's intro on Peter Gabriel's "Don't Give Up". That was what got me into bass. |

| | | | My vote goes for John Entwistle on My Generation.
Edit: Or John Paul Jones on The Lemon Song. |

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Jan 2007 Location: Los Angeles | | | Maybe not the BEST, but one that just perked my ears up the other day after many many years, for it's soul and deceptive simplicity, and funk--Rick Laird's brief but no-nonsense bass solo on Birds of Fire. |
