Guess the Bass Line

Say It Ain't So, Weezer.

I have one recorded on my phone, but guess what?  I've left my phone in the studio since Tuesday - that's almost a week.  Thank god I'm not a millennial...

 

Edit: You've guessed it, I'm in no position to record...

I’m stumped I was thinking the clue refers to albums with numbers in the title so that got me thinking maybe something from Stone Temple Pilots or Pearl Jam but they only released 1 album each that is just a number???? Am I at all close

but reading the post above great shout!!

You were on the right track. I seem to remember his first four albums were all called "Peter Gabriel", and Weezer also released several eponymous albums.

Apologies for the rather abrupt editing, but this is the only bit of the song I could play consistently well enough! It does contain what I think is the most distinctive part of the bassline so it should hopefully be recognisable.

Sounds like the not inconsiderable work of Mani!

It is indeed Sir Gary of Mounfield. I even played it on a hollowbody for authenticity 😉

I've nothing else recorded right now (that one took me bloody ages!) so hopefully someone else has?

Bloody heck mate, you made a great job of it! I can easily believe the time it took. I've been playing a song from that same 2nd album for months (track 1), and I'm still not quite there yet!!

Probably because I don't have the right bass... 😔

I'll record a few snippets of basslines for the quiz now in a minute...
