John Deacon in "Dragon Attack" at 1:50 - 2:10

unlike some bassists who deign to take a solo, Deacon understands that the groove sees all and knows all. He obeys the groove without mercy, and yet proceeds to become fat and funky. Consider the ramifications of this.

Post a bass solo that you think is good, or great.

Garrison was a beast! Kinda different from yours in that it is not in the middle of the song so it hasn't got a groove to live up to but it introduces the piece in a great manner. John Wetton had some great solos with king crimson too. A fav of mine has always been the part in the middle of ltia pt.1
