Comment:

Yesterday, I heard 'Another One Bites The Dust' on the radio and started thinking about songs that feature instantly recognizable bass lines. I'm sure there are many that I haven't thought of--any other ideas would be great.

Great mix. As a bass player, I appreciate this. Some suggestions:
Tommy James - "I Think We're Alone Now"
Pearl Jame - "W.M.A."
Fleetwood Mac - "The Chain"

Oh, this is good. Extra points for the "Barney Miller" theme. Man alive, I love that show.

Great concept for a mix!! Here is one more suggestion: "Supremes, "You Can't Hurry Love." It is from the same era as Temptations, "My Girl," and possibly the same Motown session bass player, but who knows...

I have to agree, it's a wonderful idea for a mix! Great songs, but could I take the time to recommend "A Forest" by the Cure? It's quite possibly their most bass-heavy song.

The Pixies "Gigantic." I think almost anyone who lived through the past 15 years knows that bassline, even if they don't know the band.

Looked here again after seeing John's request. It's one of the best mixes posted here in 2003. By the way I see that I was out to lunch in that comment I posted last year - obviously both those songs had bass lines by James Jamerson.
