Members 101Volts Posted May 5, 2011 Members Share Posted May 5, 2011 Other than "Smooth Criminal" I like the bass in many XTC songs. I hadn't looked at the second page when I hit the reply button but looking now, There's an XTC song in a quote in one of the recent replies... Anyway, Here are some in no real order: 1 - Senses Working Overtime http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5J5GVVz0gjA 2 - Ball And Chain 3 - Helicopter (Whrr, Whrr, The bass is the motor) I also have been enjoying the bass in this song by Models. Its not quite as tasteful but hey. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=slzIMoI8rGY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members scott944 Posted May 5, 2011 Members Share Posted May 5, 2011 A3C beat me to it - pretty much the entire Detroit era Motown catalog. Put "Standing in the Shadows of Motown" in your Netflix cue now and thank me later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
