It is actually "Stratus" from Bill Cobham's "Spectrum". Bass by Leland Sklar. Here He is doing a play over (Sorry to Derail the Reggae RB) Massive Attack sampled Stratus. Dug Wimbish played it on the Horace Andy Album B 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sonic_Groove Posted November 10, 2022 Share Posted November 10, 2022 Here is some Old School Reggae from 1969 that has been "borrowed" & sampled a lot including the Staple Singers (1972) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I didn't know that was Lee Sklar on it, alright. No problem we are all here to learn. I get stuff mixed up all the time! It is easy to confuse/mix Herbie's Chameleon with Stratus both the same year & both from the same Jazz Fusion/Miles Davis background 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mykesbass Posted November 19, 2022 Share Posted November 19, 2022 Quite liked the original version of this (Thom Yorke's side project) but Dennis Bovell has really moved it up to another level. Not the most Reggae of offerings on here, but it is Bovell and I like it! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
