Weekly Bassline #248: Baby Love (Mothers Finest)

Mother's Finest is an American funk rock band founded in Atlanta, Georgia, by the vocal duo of Joyce "Baby Jean" Kennedy and Glenn "Doc" Murdock in 1970 when the pair met up with guitarist Gary "Moses Mo" Moore and bassist Jerry "Wyzard" Seay. 

Their music is a blend of funky rhythms, heavy rock guitars and expressive soul/R&B-style vocals. „Baby Love“ is one of their greatest hits. Originally released on their third studio album “Another Mother Further” (1977) I transcribed the epic and more energetic live version from the 1979 album “Live”.

Weekly Bassline #247: There's No Way Out Of Here (David Gilmour)

Back from the winter holidays I wish you a belated happy new bass year!

Here's the first weekline bassline for 2020:

“There’s no way out of here” was the only single of David Gilmours 1978 debut solo album.

The song was originally recorded by the band Unicorn (as "No Way Out of Here") for their 1976 album Too Many Crooks, which Gilmour produced. It was also recorded later by New Jersey stoner rock band Monster Magnet on their Monolithic Baby! album. 

On Gilmours version the bass was played by Rick Wills, who also played with Foreigner, Small Faces and Bad Company.
