Live With Me


The very underrated Bill Wyman. It wasn't until I listened to their live stuff from '72 & '73 that I really started to appreciate Wyman and what he meant to them.

Sade--No Ordinary Love

Pretty much anything by Sade fits your criterion.

Ride - Leave them all Behind

Honestly, i'm not sure there is a cooler sounding bassline to a song. I'd say it's my favorite.

I had his solo album Monkey Grip, and due to my lack of maturity, this became my favorite Bill Wyman song:

Pussy - Bill Wyman

No bassline, but it's a cute little ditty.

Sade - "No Ordinary Love" has the best bass groove period. That song is nothing but bass...and sex.
