Fish and Heart of the Sunrise (Squire), anything by Primus!, and EVERYTHING by Levin ('Sleepless' is another highlight)...
Yah, Geddy Lee has done some memorable bass stuff, as has the greatly underrated Paul McCartney ...
Oh, and 'National Anthem'.. !!!! my favourite by Radiohead...
And let's not forget Bootsy Collins during his stint in the strange, but musically feirce Praxis!...

Dandelion don't tell no lies
Dandelion will make you wise
Tell me if she laughs or cries
Blow away dandelion
I'm afraid there's no denying
I'm just a dandelion
a fate I don't deserve.

I remember the first time that song burst through the speakers. It was the first CD I listened to. Revolver was my introduction to the compact disc way back in '87, on a Yamaha CD player. Should've kept it as a souvenir...
Another unlikely one.....Rio by Duran Duran. John Taylor's playing his ass off on that one.

First, and foremost, Anasthesia (Pulling Teeth). And to give Newstead some credit... eh, how about God That Failed.
"It is not the literal past that rules us, save, possibly, in a biological sense. It is images of the past. Each new historical era mirrors itself in the picture and active mythology of its past or of a past borrowed from other cultures. It tests its sense of identity, of regress or new achievement against that past.”
-George Steiner
the Osmonds played live, but had studio help. my wife was/is a fan and saw them live. (twice i think) they were very underated as a band. they could all play multiple instruments and wrote quite a bit of their own stuff. it is too bad there hasn't been an honest critical review of them. and they get overshadowed by the Donny & Marie thing.

I had forgotten what a nice bass kick this song had. I just put it on and wallowed in it.
oh yeah!
it's also the song the nana party dances to...heh
I think another song off the White Album might be even more suitable for the nana party dance: Birthday. Its bass part is nothing to sneeze at either.
Birthday...
I would like you to dance!
Birthday...
Take a ch-ch-ch-chance!
agreed. either Helter Skelter or Birthday!! you're a genius!

I said it before and I'll say it again, Julie and I must be doppelgangers. I've been a diehard fan of the Osmond Brothers (original line-up with Donny, not the Osmonds line-up with Jimmy or Marie) since I was 12 years old (1972). Crazy Horses is a fantastic album, but I prefer The Plan.
And I'm doubly imporessed thta Julie has gotten you to listen to some of their stuff. Paul won't even give it a try. :::sigh:::
