Slide (I think) by Slave, and SIX 0 CLOCK IN THE MORNING, by George Duke, Tonight We love each other, by Rufus and Chaka Khan.

There are also some funky bass lines in Gospel Music, check out Fred Hammonds "let the praise begin, the live and studio versions" "blessed"
just to name a couple.

I do a morphing medley of funky rap/funk songs that goes something like this:
Busta Move-Young MC
Rappers Delight/Good Times-Sugarhill Gang/Chic
Rapture-Blondie
Another One Bites the Dust-Queen
These all start with an E in the downbeat and its easy to "flow" them together.

Speaking of gospel music, you gotta check out "That's What I Believe" by Donnie McClurkin and "Give Thanks" by Marvin Sapp.

For sure, I do believe Maurice Fitzgerald played on Donnie MC, I know for sure he played on Marvin Sapps live on VHS, btw, do you know what kind of bass he was playing on Marvin Sapp? It looked like a blue fender jazz deluxe five?

I think he plays Roscoe's now. He also backs up Fred Hammond when they play live

James Brown "Gravity" and " Living in America" some real nice triplets during the breakdowns.

Mister Zero by Fishbone has an outstanding funk bassline to it.

 

[Stewmc5222]

so do "Bonin' in the Boneyard" and the heavy cover of Curtis Mayfied's "Freddy's Dead" by Fishbone. and the breakdown in "Howard Beach Party" is pretty fierce...



from the lows,

Miller Time - Marcus Miller on Victor Wooten's Live In America CD Also Power By Marcus Miller From the M2 CD
Fire - Ohio Players
Almost anything by Parliament-PFunk-Funkadelic or whatever else George Clinton called his group to get around a contract. Bootsy did most of the Bass work.

Don't forget "Something About That Woman". Easily one of their funkiest songs.
