205I may get laughed at for this one but i really love
the bass line from "Imaginary War" by Jawbreaker

206Laughing Hyenas- Here We Go Again
Tons of James Brown, but Take Some/Leave Some and Mind Power definitely come to mind.

207'bout time someone said something. i was actually thinking i might be the first one to mention vern after 11 pages.
fuck yeah, unwound is the main reason i started playing bass. then came joy division and big black, the birthday party. his hero is gone.
also - i can't believe i haven't seen aston barret or robbie shakespeare mentioned. c'mon people...dub. it's all bass!
al cisernos. i don't think i've seen his name mentioned yet either.
and major kudos to the dude who mentioned "sieve fisted fine" by fugazi.
and lungfish. almost anything.
and "out on the tiles" - led zep.
"i'm a woman" - the shocking blue.
but to summarize:
unwound rules.
want bass? any fucking song on any record. too many to list. but i will say the bass line on "said serial" from their 7" on troubleman just fucking slays.
my worst post ever. my apologies.

209Don't know if anyone's said it, and in no way is this to be construed as an endorsement of the band, but Give It Away by the Red Hot Chili Peppers has an awesome bass line. Yeah, I know. But it's still a cool bass line.

210Grandmaster Flash's White Lines. The version the song has is Sugarhill Gang's session bassist covering the Liquid Liquid song.
