Submission Stevie Wonder - Boogie On Reggae Woman (First Eight Bars Bass Line)

Nice...thanks

 

you have a lot of facility with those dead notes. that's from a keyboard part, is it not?

 

It is Stevie Wonder on a keyboard bass.

Bass Player did a full transcription for electric bass. IIRC, Bryan Bellar did the dots.
Peter Cetera is on the cover (Dec. 2007).

 

the dots, yeah. i have that issue somewhere in a box, should dig it out. the bass on " isn't she lovely " is a blast to play. keyboard, too, i think. he's the king on those keys.

 

He's one of the greats on synth bass...
In the '80s, there was also-
> Gregg Phillinganes (check out the "We Can Work It Out" cover by Chaka Khan. Bass Player may have transcribed this one, too)
> Hawk Wolinski from Rufus
> Michael Omartian ("Boogie Down" by Al Jarreau, I think).
> David Frank of The System
> Bernie Worrell of P-Funk
> Robbie Buchanan
> David Foster
> Mike Boddicker

"Ya Mo B There" is another cool synth bass tune. Pretty sure one of the above played it.
