I'm a fan of simple repetitive basslines that just work. I think that it's hard to just choose three "favorites," but these stand out for me when I think of this question. I suspect that not everyone will agree with me though, but I'm totally ok with that.







Bonus pick, cause f**k your rules!

№2 (it's not bass line in the strict sense but I cannot resist)

+1. Same for drums.

Quarter notes are your friend, my friend.

You need to limit that rez, bro.

More Rick bass goodness... like a hot knife through butter... Precious, Tattooed Love Boys, Space Invader, Brass in Pocket, Mystery Achievement...

In no particular order. And you did say, "5 favourite", right? :P

This is my favourite from Jaco. Dances around the chords so playfully, but still manages to pin it down. The whole experience is further enhanced by the rest of the dream-team up on that stage :love: :love:

Joni Mitchell - In France They Kiss On Main Street.



------------------------------

Pino Palladino elevating a good song to something really memorable:

Paul Young - I'm Gonna Tear Your Playhouse Down



---------------------------------------

My favourite New Order song, and one of my favourites songs, ever! One of the only songs that for me still stands up to multiple replays. A perfect thing in every way, so it seems remiss to focus on one element. However, for the sake of this thread, I give you Hooky at his knee-slung, 'driving' best:

New Order - Procession



----------------------------------------

This one gets me hopping on so many levels - Air-drumming, air-bassing, dancing etc. A call to action - I defy you to sit still!!

The Who - The Real Me:



---------------------------------------

My last entry is a great song, but so f**king twee :scared: The bass-line, however, is spot on

Paul McCartney & Wings - Silly Love Songs:

This is the same method MJ used when he was working on Anthony Marinelli's Thriller.
