Ultimate Musicman playlist?

Anything by Fugazi (Joe Lally)

 

[JTE]

Pino's fretless StingRay (pre EB) on Paul Young's "I'm Gonna Tear Your Playhouse Down".

Freebo on the Bonnie Raitt's album "Sweet Forgiveness". Possibly on some others, but I know it's the 'Ray on that one.

I beleive that Queen's "Another One Bites The Dust" is John Deacon on a 'Ray as well.

Didn't realize "Another One Bites the Dust" was a Ray. That's a good one. Great suggestions. Keep 'em coming. I can't wait to finish this playlist.

Lots of Louis Johnson tracks were slapped on a Stingray or Sabre.

+1 Louis Johnson is the Stingray master.

You could pick any Brothers Johnson, or 80s George Duke. You could add any Michael Jackson tune from "Off the Wall" or "Thriller" to that list too.

 

[Mikio]

Dream Theater [John Myung] - The Dark Eternal Night

 

[In Absentia]

Schism by Tool. Im sure I read that JC only ever used a Stingray on 46 & 2 and Schism.

Schism is certainly Justin's Wal bass. The only 2 tracks were "46&2" and "H."

Outstanding. So if you have to pick one outstanding Louis Johnson track - what would it be? Same thing with Brothers Johnson, etc.

Get on the Floor - Michael Jackson

Fame by David Bowie?

Good one. Are we sure?

 

[mikeswals]

Feel so Good by Chuck Mangione. Charlie Meeks sounds great with that preEB StingRay.

 

[pringlw]

Ok here's what I have. I may have missed some good tracks but I'll go back and scrub the thread;

Burnin' for You - BOC
The Game - Disturbed
Bleed it Out - Linkin Park
Just a Girl - No Doubt (Still have it in... am I wrong?)
Another one bites the dust - Queen
Red Flag - Billy Talent
Red Rain - Peter Gabriel
Killing in the Name - Rage Against the Machine
I'm Gonna Tear your Playhouse Down - Paul Young
Get On the Floor - Michael Jackson
The Dark Eternal Night - Dream Theater
Suggestion - Fugazi
Aeroplane - Red Hot Chili Peppers
Fame - David Bowie

Two question are; are all these confirmed and..

What am I missing?

 

[CapnSev]

Good Times - Chic

I'm not a disco fan, but that line is priceless.

 

[broadblik]

All the Less Than Jake stuff.

 

[pringlw]

Ok,

The Science of Selling Yourself Short - Less than Jake
Good Times - Chic

(I'm not a Disco Fan either but I want multiple genres. I hate the "this bass or that bass is a one trick pony" thing.)

Oldies You can't forget:
Just What I needed from The Cars
She Sells Santuary from the Cult
Jessie's Girl from Rick Springfield

Admittedly...Jessie's Girl, Another One Bites The Dust, and the Cars are my earliest memories of StingRays and the beginning of my lust for them.

Great ones! How could I have missed the Cult. Didn't realize the Cars.

RHCP Aeroplane was played on an Alembic wasn't it???

 

[Valerus]

ISIS - *insert song title*

Caxide has a great tone on like all the songs.

I don't know. Can anyone confirm one way or the other? That's the hard thing with Flea. Everyone knows he played Music Man for quite a while - but he flipped around a lot so he's hard to pin down on any one song. I have to say, Aeroplane doesn't jump out as a Music Man sound to me. It sounds a little thin on the bottom and more obvious on harmonics. Of course that can be the EQ.
