Okay I have been threatening to record something for ages.
This was done in one take, no overdubs.
Gear used
MK Signature bass(Pan in the middle, filters fully open, Q's on)
Zoom B2.1u with A5 patch and 8 beat drum pattern
Cubase LE recording software
See how many bass lines you can recognise

I may do a few more
The other two are from rehearsals of current band, recorded with an old Akai 400DS MkII tape recorder

I started listening through my laptop speakers, and was thinking that the tone was really nice; so I plugged it into the stereo. Really nice tone!

Well guys you were all right, excerpts are:-
Lopsy Lu
School Days
Forget me Knots
Birdland
I Wish
We Play The Funk
Low Rider
Tune In Turn Cop Out(by Freak Power)
Good Times/Rappers Delight
Black Market - well done dadabass2001 for spotting that
September - well done Pauldo I guess its the A octave that gives it away
Lastly - that's me funking it up with a E A B progression
Cheers for the comments
