Rocky Road From Classic Rock to Progessive to hip hop to today's hot new tunes! |

Hi:
I'm working on a "My Favorite Basslines Mix" on CDR, including mainly rock and soul songs. I'm not looking for bass solos or unusually complex basslines -- I'm just looking for basslines that were:
(1) a very important part of a popular song
(2) easy to remember
(3) loud enough to be audible
(I can use an EQ to boost the bass if it's too weak in the mix).Two examples are the basslines in:
(1) The Animals 1960's hit: "I Gotta Get Out of This Place"
(2) & James Jamerson playing in Stevie Wonder's "I Was Made To Love Her"Any rock song bassline suggestions from well known groups would be useful as I have over 1000 rock CD's at home and the CDs at several large local libraries to choose from.
