Re: Your favorite bass riffs

Basically anything Flea does, but he had some really tasty riffs in Dani California.

Re: Your favorite bass riffs

Doors: LA Woman

Bruce: Who's playing bass?
[Kevin looks frantically at the back of the record.]
Kevin: Umm duuuu baaaa.... No one?!
Bruce: No bass!
Kevin: No bass?!
Bruce: That's right! The gypsies had no homes, The Doors had no bass. But don't let that scare you, my friend let that liberate you! 'Cause when you're free flying with the Doors, man - what do you need a safety net for?

Re: Your favorite bass riffs

Ok, say it's a piece of shlocky pop crap. But to come up with that bass line, and then sing the lead vocal on top of it? And do it live?

The man was definitely a musical genius. What the hell happened?

I'll go with this one too.

Re: Your favorite bass riffs

Not really riffs, per se, but bass work that just makes the song. Very simple, but hypnotic, and beautiful.

Re: Your favorite bass riffs

Two bass riffs. The programmed bass line, and the flanged bass as lead instrument.
