+10 on Jeff Beck Blow By Blow

John Butler Trio - Live At St Gallen

lol was at that festival, didnt know they released a cd(and dvd?)

 

[Funkifized]

This 1964 soul classic, Who Do You Love by the Sapphires, has a great bass line, and trust me, it's a great finger exercise!

 

[hellofromming]

My bass cover of Stevie's My Cherie Amour, the bassist for this version is Nathan Watts!

Thanks, Robert, but we're looking for Album Titles, not a list of bassists.

I guess it's been long enough since I posted to add to the list:


Antonio Carlos Jobim w/ Elis Regina - Elis & Tom, Wave, Tide
Miles Davis - Birth of the Cool, Bitches Brew
Joe Henderson - Double Rainbow
J.J. Johnson - The Trombone Master
Seu Jorge - The Life Aquatic Soundtrack
The Stooges - First Album
Television - Marquee Moon
Hermeto Pascoal - So' Nao Toca Quem Nao Quer, A Arte Livre de Hermeto Paschoal
Jeff Berlin - Champion, Pump It

 

[NoiseNinja]

The Velvet Underground and Nico

Captain Beefheart - Troutmask Replica

Frank Zappa and The Mothers of Invention - Absolutely free

Syd Barrett (and the Floyd reluctantly) - Vegetableman

 

[moshspeggeti]

I'm glad too see a lot of Primus suggested here... I also think some great albums would be:

• Primus: Pork Soda
• Primus: Tales from the Punchbowl
• Primus: Frizzle Fry
• Primus: Sailing the Seas of Cheese
• Tool: Ænima
• Tool: Laterus

Primus can really be influential, Les does a really nice job tying the band together with his funky baselines... and Justin Chancellor has a natural talent for making a unique sounding tone that really does Tool justice.

 

[Hugh_R]

Most D'Angelo records would make it in for me!!

 

[the harp unstrung]

Fragile/The Yes Album - Yes (pick one)

I choose "Fragile".
