Best Bass Playing in a Song
Masterful, in your face bass playing. Brilliant
He rocks the bass with the skill of Eddie Van Halen on a six-string here. Technical skills are just brilliant
Thunderstruck was recorded in January 1990 and AC/DC's bassist is Cliff William, not Cliff Burton. Cliff Burton (Metallica Bassist) died in September 1986 so he can't record a song after his death. R.I.P.
My official apologies for putting Cliff Burton instead of Cliff Williams. Obviously I knew that. It was a careless mistake that I should have caught
There are a lot of reasons this song is so adrenalizing. The powerful bass line is one of them.
Personally I've always been a Jason Newsted fan, but there is no denying Burton's masterful playing in this song
Standout song in Avenged Sevenfold's catalog for bass. Very catchy bass hooks in this jam
The successor to another very talented, very underrated bassist in Lorne Black, Montana really sets the tone for this song with some stylish bass lines
One of Manson's lesser known songs but it starts out with a very masterful bass intro that sets up for a very underrated song
Bass isn't the first thing you think of when you hear this song. But when you really listen, it becomes quite clear what's driving the power in this song
It may be a bit cliche to put on this list a song that includes a straight-up bass solo, but it can't be argued that this is one badass solo
Steve is the man
One of the only W.A.S.P. albums on which Lawless played bass, and he did an excellent job on it. This is his standout song on the four-stringer
John Deacon is the unsung hero of Queen.
Iconic with Under pressure.
Go listen to just the bass track of this song, it is so good.
