Let's face it, there are hundreds of excellent bass lines out there, from "I'm a Man" by The Spencer Davis Group to James Jamerson "Ain't no Mountain High Enough" through Yes, Primus, Metallica, and Rush to name a few. What lifts any one of these excellent bass riffs is its context and ability to set the mood or drive the emotion in the song it's being played.

[@chrisjohnson4165]

Ian Dury and the Blockheads - Hit Me With Your Rhythm Stick is the sickest bass line I can think of at the moment. Stranglers - Peaches is also tasty. But number 1 should be Lou Reed - Walk On the Wild Side.

John Taylor's bass playing on "Rio" is up there for me. I'm a Bernard Edwards stan I love that you included "Good Times" in your list. But in my opinion he had even a few better ones than that. Louis Johnson's bassline for Michael Jackson's "Get on the Floor" is epic as well. But like you said there are so many very good basslines its really tough to put a top 10 together.

[@Friendly-Neighborhood-F22]

To add to that, being able to play it does not make you good either. its quite rare to get something you cannot actually play. for example I am a drummer, majority of Tool could be played with 2-3 years of learning drums if you have free time like a student or something. The point is, could you have written / composed something that good? probably not. It is more to do with the writing and finess and flare and style and feel than "can someone play this who is not a pro musician?"....

Very late to this obviously but Ron Carter's bass work on Also Sprach Zarathustra is pretty amazing. Obviously not the level of technical difficulty of some of these but his bass line provides much of the variation over a nine minute instrumental track, and it's all melodic and rhythmic rather than slapping and popping (not criticising players who use these techniques, just noting that Carter was working with a more limited toolkit).

Your Enter the sandman sounded like Master of puppets lmao, Epic

No wayyy🤯

[@agrofindastation]

It's "Master of the Puppets"

That just tells me you haven't watched many Davie videos

[@majorsynthqed7374]

The bass line in Roundabout is insane. I would also add in Marcus Miller "Run For Cover."

[@midnightvega1971]

Here are a few...Quiet Life by Japan(Mick Karn), Rio by Duran Duran(John Taylor), and lastly, and one of the best, The Chicken by Jaco Pastorius

8:31 Says and writes "Beat it" then plays "Billie Jean" 🤣🤣 .. SLAP IT!

2:34 is the same joke, it's not enter sandman but it is Master of Puppets

It looks like so much fun to learn/play bass guitar!

[@RamsdellProductions]

I was really hoping to see The less i know the better-by Tame Impala on here, one of my favorite bass lines ever! great video Davie.

[@nickm775]

Hysteria should’ve been in the top 10, it’s the holy grail for bass riffs and is a great finger exercise

[@Helder_Nit]

I agree

[@Pednoob]

Was waiting for him to play it

[@Shredderific_Shred]

That’s not a hard riff...

He played hysyeria in his old video: "hardest basslines',Chechk It out !!

[@aryasenaputra3226]

@@Shredderific_Shred under the bridge is also not that difficult. But what makes it hard is to do it constantly nonstop

[@michaelmoore1697]

Dazed and Confused, and Give it Away are Iconic baselines, maybe not best technically but the song is defined by them.

[@Davie504]

they are, but not top 10 worthy

[@yhuryh3942]

have to agree, the heartbreak when he said no to Dazed And Confused

[@TheGaberGuy]

I am kind of in the middle between Michael and Davie; I think that at the beginning, DaC is pretty simple, but then gets pretty fast in the middle and end. However, I think that there are still better Led Zeppelin baselines, such as The Lemon Song and Ramble On, that should have made the so called "list". Then again, I might be a bit biased, since I am a huge Led Zeppelin fan.😆

I love Primus and American Life, although Primus has a lot of great bass lines. My favorites apart from American Life are My Name is Mud, DMV, Mr. Krinkle, Lacquer Head, The Antipop, Eclectic Electric, and of course Jerry the Racecar Driver is always fun.

He also made a mistake with the Michael Jackson bassline, the song is Billie Jean! Not Beat It

[@TylerSampson51]

I would say My Generation definitely deserves its spot on that list.

[@JewelMuncher]

*OK*

[@cobb_thedrummer]

Agreed, it’s one of the first rock songs with a bass break that iconic.

[@benthrasher9739]

Something else people don’t think about is that the song was release in 1965. This is a time period when the best session bassists were still being discovered by record labels and there simply wasn’t that much high level bass playing outside of jazz records. Entwistle is an icon.

[@nebwachamp]

Yea.. Limp Bizkit was snubbed.

[@diegzwsp]

people try to get us down

[@lipstickandleggings]

I feel like the bassist for No Doubt Tony Kanal is so under rated. The bass line for some of their songs is incredible

[@darkmoon_king]

Nite Klub by the Specials should've been on that list. I was actually amazed that Iron Maiden was included, and it was D'anno era Maiden at that.

[@mateomogollonarcaya4213]

8:31 this bassline is actually from Billie Jean.

[@800pieds]

This "Beat it" bass line sounds suspiciously like the one from "Billie Jean"

[@ushio4210]

If I remember correctly, MJ generally wrote several different songs from the same base line and pick out the one he liked to put in album.

[@nathansiegel950]

No he just said the wrong song. Beat it and Billie Jean have completely different bass lines, tempos and keys, ones in F sharp minor ones in Eb minor.

[@hayleycomet8029]

Yeah that was for sure Billie Jean.. Beat it's bassline sound nothing like it in any way

[@par64guy]

#4 was definitely a Billy Jean. Now, can Davie reproduce Eddie Van Halen's guitar solo in Beat It on the bass?

[@hayleycomet8029]

@@par64guy there's no way he can play that!

[@TheAlienGangster]

Did he accidentally play Billie Jean when he said Beat It?

dude.. Stratus, Antipop and Jerry Was a Race Car Driver, Long Distance Runaround by Yes, You can call me Al, Steam by Peter Gabriel, Achilles Last Stand and Nobody's Fault But Mine by Zep just to name a few. And you put Seven Nation Army in your list.. unbelievable..

Jack White is so good he wrote a top 10 bassline on guitar while never playing the riff once on bass.

I was gonna say, Jack used a 7 string guitar for Seven Nation Army..
