Like the Beatles, Bach in his day wrote the book on bassline and counterpoint. From my favourite pianist, this moving Bach piece starts off with a hauntingly beautiful bassline that is then joined by a counterpoint melody line that plays above, and then ends on the bassline again. The interplay between the 2 voices is magic. The effect is hauntingly sublime.

Here’s one with a very stand out bassline. I remember in engineering class as the year progressed and some students didn’t show up any more, they would say “another one bites the dust”. I think I bit the dust at one point! HAHAHA. It was a pretty common term back then.

Great example of a bassline David, it makes the theme music. This sitcom sure takes me way back, haven’t seen these familiar faces in a long time. Thanks!
-
Jurgen, this is a very nice rock classical instrumentation work with a great bass line. The Police Every Breath You Take is another great one with effective bassline. Thank you for posting all these! ❤

Hi Tim, wow what a stand out bassline on the cello. It’s hard not to tap your feet or hands along to this one.

What a great song Jacki, this was huge back in the 80s. I don’t think anyone who grew up that decade would not know this one. I didn’t know Bryan Adams sang some parts in the song, I see a real young looking Bryan in the video. I like Glass Tiger’s Thin Red Line too.
And those 80s hair cuts JP, they sure look dated today, but were kool indeed back then. I remember the look in my mom’s face when I got one of those kool hair cuts on a trip to the hair salon in the day!

Great song JP, and yeah Roger Water’s bass just drives that bassline wonderfully throughout the song! I remember the very first time I heard this song, it was in my grade 5 music class, the teach Mr Stevens brought in the schools record player, and he said “listen to this great sound”, and played “Money”. I didn’t know who Pink Floyd was at the time, but it sounded so cool indeed. I always remember my grade 5 music teacher fondly, he was so passionate about music, felt so many beautiful feelings singing in his class. He also had dozens of ukeleles, so even though none of us knew how to play, he would have all the kids grab a uke and just strum along and sing while he played on the piano and sang, or banged his tambourine as he sang. Music seemed to pour out of his pores. Later in high school I learned Mr Stevens passed away which was really sad. Best music teacher anyone could have, he taught us how to be passionate about music.

Amazing musicianship Chris, I love seeing musicians get deep into their playing like this. His playing here reminds me a little of Tommy Emmanuel, except this is on the cello.

I can certainly feel that bassline here David, and great bassline in Rescue Me.
-
Jurgen, hearing this it looks like the Beatles wrote the book on effective bassline, among many other contributions to music. Great animated video too!
-
Chris, that is 14 minutes of pure rock and roll bliss. Listening to the Who’s My Generation here, and then going to MLTs My Generation at the Cavern, MLT sure does the Who proud justice. Mona’s vocals are perfection, and Lisa’s guitar work outstanding!

Another great Paul McCartney tune JP, and wonderful video production. One of my faves from Paul McCartney and Wings.
-
I haven’t heard this song in ages David, great to hear it again, and great use of the bass.
-
A great song Diana, really catchy tune.

Hi Jurgen. Nice I like it, a really effective use of the bassline that drives the song. It reminds me a little of the Knack, My Sharona. Ben E King Stand By Me is another one I didn’t realize it has a wonderful bassline starting the song off.
