One of the coolest base lines ever.

just the bass the song still works
-
Bass is such a sexy instrument; in Keith’s hands, it flys on its own…it’s in the rhythm…whew!
-
I love the sound of this 1959 Fender Precision Bass. i love it!!!!
-
Always LOVED that first lead guitar lick!
-
During the 80s, I listened to this tape a lot in my Walkman®. Sometimes I played this song over and over again, just to hear that bass. The piano was also wonderful. Pendant les 80s , J'ai beaucoup écouté cette cassette dans mon Walkman® . Parfois je repassais ce morceau en boucle , uniquement pour entendre cette basse. Le piano aussi était merveilleux.
-
Brilliant tune even with only bass and guitar.
-
Flatwounds on a P-Bass played with a pick is an amazing combination.
-
Thanks so much for these isolated tracks. Please do more of these.
-
Kieth played some of the best basslines. simple but very effective. Especially this song and "Jumping Jack Flash"
-
So snappy! He hears the whole thing in his head, and punches it up real hard. 😮
-
Utterly fantastic
-
Keith is Amazing😮

Keef has always had that Funk and soul in his playing. Greatest Rhythm player of all time and the coolest.
-
Goosebumps!
-
Out of this world.
-
thanks for this boss
-
People don't realise, half of the tone is the compressor/limiter that was used on the bass, giving it that tight smacky sound. Phenomenal and legendary!
-
Beautiful. Yes, as someone else said please do more! How about isolated bass track on Cream's Badge?
-
I know Richards did a lot of lead work when Brian got more involved with the sitar and other unusual instruments. And he did some of the most iconic solos. But on the whole, do you think he preferred to be on rhythm guitar, as Mick Taylor and Ron Wood later became the band's lead guitarist?
