Bassline - Don't Look Any Further - Dennis Edwards

[jayd4ever]

rip tupac

[Captainhit]

OH-Paul Jackson played guitar - YES !! Though "Jamerson" is one of the best ever-a hero of mine, I wrote the bass line, groove and chords at 3:00am in the morning-just bought the Oberheim OBXa - I was inspired.Guess I have some "brother" in me in my past We had up to 120 covers ( bass line and chords ) by "Biggie" ( Mo Money) , Tupac (Hit Em Up) , Ili Wayne, Snoop Dog , The Nylons, M-Trance (last 2- the whole song)etc.We are GREATLY honored-must give the real credit to the MASTER WRITER !!

[Captainhit]

My name is Duane HItchings and I wrote the bass line and chords too "Don't Look Any Further" , My co writers who wrote the melody and lyric where Frannie Golde ( wrote big R&B hits) and Dennis Lambert ( producer of the Temps and many others). Dennis Lambert and I both had Oberheim OBXa's and I think I dumped the bass line and chords directly off my OBXa, Oberheim sequencer and drum box . Dennis Lambert played the high chopped riff and and I forgot the guitar players name - Jackson ?? Bad ass !

[dlfranklin]

Nice, I like how he put his own twist in it from the 1:28 - 1:50 minute mark. Not quite the original, but I have been trying to get that beat down on my bass for a couple of months now.

[mudearboy]

Yes, thats good, but if you wanna see a professional bass player look @ Thunder Thumb (Richard Thomas) of Mississippi Mass Choir.

[ty73us]

DAMN! I wish you'd finish the song sometimes. LOL! That's the baddest bass line in history and you rocked it!

[useverlastin]

The 2nd baddest,check out the James Jamerson bassline for the Jackson Five's Darlin Dear. It's on here

[puakaastro]

the baddest one is Another One Bites The Dust. Now, dont give me a thumb down, I was just joking...

[StabRuti]

Yeah nice.

I was looking for the line bass and bingo I found you ^^.

[AndrewEnderWiggin]

I'm almost certain it was Paul M. Jackson, Jnr, that played bass on this track.

I wonder if he gets mechanical royalties for the "use" of his performance (via a sample) on 2Pac, Junior Mafia, Eric B & Rakim etc.?

[dillikins]

Eric B. & Rakim didn't sample the bass line - it was replayed and wasn't exactly the same.

[Axe2Dome]

Hit em up sampled the bassline ;)

[Bottlespinner]
