Back To Bassics

 I just heard the new Dizzee Rascal track, "Bassline Junkie". First, the boy needs to wash his mouth out. Second, if you want to write a great song about basslines, then you have to do better than this.



There are two great songs about basslines. First, there is the wonderful Norman Cook aka Beats International aka Fatboy Slim...


 Then, before that, there was the glorious Shriekback...




However, for my money, the best actual bass lines in history are right here...
