Great ebass playing

[Hornbein]

Hated the song, the look and the name of the band. It was the 80s.
However, that bass...

The ebass player is the star but there is something funny going on. I hear an octave divider sometimes and not others, but he is isn't controlling it. It's probably prerecorded and being synced to. Well I don't care about things like that.

How about THIS?

That is a heartbreaking song to me. It was my ex's favourite and i thought it was ok at the the time.
I did not really get it till years after, the words cut you to the bone.

A great song if you ask me. And if you want a mournful sound you can't beat fretless ebass. The bassett hound of instruments.

Written by Chris Squire. The bass line is just on the beat nothing fancy but choice of notes and sounds again.

Simply beautiful.

does that help? :) I think sometimes stuff on forums just gets missed, by me at least, even when reading around the forums, like this thread. Lot to listen to, thanks.
