    What are some songs he plays fingerstyle on? I'd like to hear the tone of his bass plucked.

    Is he using his signature MM model in those recordings?

    He has plucked songs on all of his solo albums.

    He often uses hard plucks to get a "snappy" sounds though, which sounds a lot like his slapped sounds.

    I first thought that you're pulling my leg, but according to his discography marcus plays on one track on Whiplash Smile. How cool is that? :)

    Marcus' playing on Donald Fagen's "The Nightfly" is amongst his finest work ever. Without one single slapnote played.

    I must agree the bassline on The Nightfly is one finest ever. Marcus at his best! (It´s really fun to play)

    since you are asking about particualar songs that he played finge style on, rand songs are recordings this should then be in recordings. Right?
