2) The closing section of Cabin Essence 3) CIFOTM: intro, leading into the vocal, and the Middle 8 (mixed in with another guitar?) 4) DYLW again starting at 2:17 5) Fire (obviously) Title: Re: Best Bass Guitar Sections on Smile Post by: onkster on November 17, 2011, 05:50:17 PM Naw! It's that cool riff late in Wind Chimes--the one that sounds like a variation on the GV riff. I loooooove that bit!

Title: Re: Best Bass Guitar Sections on Smile Post by: homeontherange on November 18, 2011, 12:31:10 AM - Wind Chimes groovy ending part.
- Fire heavy double bass things. - Brian's piano playing in Da Da (fender rhodes) and Cool Cool Water (version 1). He's so in love with his chromatic basslines. It's kinda cute. - Bicycle Rider fuzz bass. Kicks ass! - Good Vibrations (inspiration). That fuzz bass line is awesome. - Child (version 1). Wow Smile is really a very bass heavy record. I would've never thought that just by listening to old bootlegs and BWPS (where they decided to not give a sh*t about the bass sound) Title: Re: Best Bass Guitar Sections on Smile Post by: cablegeddon on November 18, 2011, 01:33:43 AM - Good Vibrations (inspiration). That fuzz bass line is awesome. +1 - All the best bass stuff is on the GV tracks. Title: Re: Best Bass Guitar Sections on Smile Post by: runnersdialzero on November 18, 2011, 01:45:27 AM - Bicycle Rider fuzz bass. Kicks ass! Immediately what I thought of, although obviously there are several other examples. Title: Re: Best Bass Guitar Sections on Smile Post by: Lookit on November 18, 2011, 02:14:47 AM The punchy little slapback- riff being played high up the neck on the Vegetables fade has always stuck with me.

That's a good one as well! Title: Re: Best Bass Guitar Sections on Smile Post by: Roger Ryan on November 18, 2011, 05:37:02 AM Don't forget about the ascending/descending bass part during the chorus of "Heroes & Villains". When I heard that for the first time on the GV Box Set, I thought "why isn't this part on the finished track?!" - eventually it was.
Title: Re: Best Bass Guitar Sections on Smile Post by: rab2591 on November 18, 2011, 07:45:43 AM 'I'm In Great Shape' - I had my subwoofer at full blast and wasn't expecting an onslaught of bass from this song - it just comes out of nowhere...It's actually a pretty catchy riff too.
