It's not pure bass, but it's a killer intro.......

Heart of the Sunrise (Yes). Especially prominent bass on the live version.

One of the first I learned to play..."KILLERS" by Iron Maiden

How about
"Big Bottom" - Spinal tap
"Theme to Fraggle Rock" - ?? (sorry kids were watching it last night, great tone btw)

 

[Wespe]

Not the best, that doesn't come to mind right now, but an outstanding bass intro that I've always liked was the opening to Sitting on the Dock of the Bay by Otis Redding. Not sure who played on that one.

Bowlegged Woman by Widespread Panic has a pretty sweet intro.

That was Duck Dunn.

 

[nubs]

did anyone mention--

"watching the detectives" --- Elvis Costello

 

[VERS]

At The Drive-In : Quarantined

The Mars Volta : Day of the Baphomets

 

[peaceofmind]

This one suprises me that it immediately jumps out to me, but
3 days By Janes addiction is strong. That bass line sets the mood and focul point for the whole tune and I like it when bass lines do that, even if they are that simple.

 

[daveyfunk]

dunno if its a bass intro but i love the way the bass opens up in 'son of a preacher man' by dusty

 

[smellythe2nd]

Symphony X - Sea of Lies

 

[hugs4lonelyfish]

Higher Ground by the Chili Peppers

 

[Unknowndude]

FCPSITSGEPGEPGEP by the Fall of Troy

 

[Afrokid]

Tool - The Pot
Chiodos - All Newards Beware, and the other song about a creek


best bass intro of all times > Day of the Baphomets < by the Mars Volta.....that bass solo / intro...is pure genius

 

[Foamy]

Another One Bites the Dust

 

[Silver Moon]

My favorite bass intro of all time is Japan's re-make of "All Tomrorrows Parties" ... Mick Karn just creeps right in with that awesome bassline that just grooves!! ... Second Runner up would be "Alien" by Japan also...
