What riff hooked you on bass?

[BringerOvGirth]

When I was 13, it was the entire Dookie album from Green Day, Mike Dirnt is still one of my main influences, and For Whom The Bells Toll by Metallica. Cliff was, and is still a bass god to me.

GFR 1971 - or 1972 by the time it reached me in Africa.
This song was written for the bass guitar!! Especially in the bridge at 0:50 and again at 2:34.

Theme from Mission Impossible. Was playing tuba in HS band when this showed up on my stand. Went home and asked mom for an electric bass for my 16th b'day. The rest...is history.
