- Dennis Brown was Bob Marley's favorite singer and has one of the greatest catalogues of songs accompanied with some outstanding bass to go along with it. I would advise anyone looking to dive in to some great reggae bass to start here and check out the rest of the great work of this great reggae vocalist who left us way to soon. Long live King Dennis Brown

I remember bunking off school to buy 'Don't Want to be No General' when it came out.
Robbie Shakespeare is the Messiah of Bass playing.
I love all your lessons and basslines ... just wow
When i asked my uncel Quino from Big Mountain that same question. He gave me 'Just a Passing Glance' album
Ahh, that was so nicely compiled. My ear is automatically driven by the bass. I didn't want it to end, and I loved the laid back sequence of Blood City too. Well done. ❤️🎶
I have to support this type of deep roots understanding
Thank you
Great bass lines! Dennis Brown will not be forgotten.
This was just genius. Ridimmmms up up up 12/3/22
Just when I thought all the bass players online play too many notes and change their strings too often... thank you! So much good stuff on this channel, keep it up man.
The bass players online do play too many notes
I love Dennis Brown, got 3 of his albums, Fantastic video again Don 🇬🇳🎸🙏Don’t understand how u have only 28 thousand SUBS .Your the best reagge bass player teacher on YT 💯

What a basslines!
Great compilation. Really expected to hear Funny Feeling here. Not a very detailed bassline but it drove reggae into many parts of the world It was especially popular in Zimbabwe.
2:23 loving the “Sitting and watching “ bass line,3:04 Revolution,3:55 Let me love you. I think all were done by the great Robbie Shakespeare,rest well legend..
Let me love you could well be Lloyd Parkes as it's a Joe Gibbs production.

I know Val Douglas is a Reggae Bass master and yes I will do a video on him. I just like to have my facts right and you have to do some serious research to find credits for Val Douglas.

Wikkid stack of bass lines Don! Dennis Brown’s greatness as a singer sometimes overshadows the quality of the musicianship happening behind him.

I'd love the bass sheet music to Peter Tosh's song, "stand firm"

Jah know Changing times go hard.. You said it ..if you can brave and play all 20..Big ups to you
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Great to see Dennis's version of Slave Driver make the cut.
No Promised Land?
Brilliant. Going back to best dub album IMO - 20th Century Debwise, which has some of these classics on it...
🔥🔥🔥🔥
Great video Don, I was a little late to Dennis Browns work, my first record I bought of his was "Foul Play" back in 81' which featured Lloyd Parks and Robbie Shakespeare on bass
. Truly inspirational basslines on the record and indeed Dennis Brown was a vocal King.
Our drummy (Jordy) did a side project with Marla Brown (Dennis's daughter) who was scheduled to tour the USA with us back in 2018 but unfortunately had to pull out due to unforeseen circumstances so we snatched up 'EarthKry' from Kingston Jamaica as they were budding young reggae enthusiasts.
Not sure what tracks were used or even if any real musicians sat in for the session recording for our drummers cover version of "If I Had the World" as it was pretty much his own personal adventure, anyway, the track is one of my favourites off of the Foul Play album and I just love covering it.
Riddim up!
how do you achieve such smooth tone master? like silk through the ears... incredible artistry
Play as much as possible and eventually you don’t have to think about the bass. Play softer to sound heavier.
❤❤❤❤❤❤
Big up ! "I Miss You Much" is another monster track, do Burning Spear next please and keep that tone Bruv !!!
When l heard the revolution riddim the first time back in the mid 80s I was hooked.... Very different from other basslines I heard before and it's been versioned by countless artists amongst then the DJ Lieutenant Stichy. And yes of course there's another great favorite, "Africa".
Every video I've watched on this channel so far is genius-level teaching. It's like that Jamerson book, or the James Brown Funkmasters, where you gather a body of material to study and explain how it fits into history and why it's so important, so the student is already excited, and you have the links to the original songs, and then you put it in a format that lets you learn it in condensed form, then you show how it's more than just individual "songs" - but malleable ideas that the student can apply creatively to other songs. Like the one where you take the rhythm of one classic bassline and apply it to a different chord progression. The whole approach and the pacing and quality of the bass-playing - all of it - just perfect - just brilliant. I'm hoping there's a video here somewhere that explains the various types of drum sequences that you're playing over and how to design those.
❤
Thanks for this video Don! The Malcolm X riddim is so good, but I thought this was written by Winston McAnuff?
Keep up the great content!
Fantastic! I really like your video. I enjoyed watching it until the end. subscribe Thank you for sharing my friend😄👍💕
Can’t forget Leroy Sibblies. I just discovered he did some of his baselines .
The one who put the thumbs down on this is not a reggae bass line lover ! This was excellent Don... As always I should say ! Thanks for your time.
Probably one of the “ I can’t hear the bass” protestors.
thanks for this video, amazing lines to learn here, known and uknown for me, a Burning Spear basslines medley would be GREAT too !!! specially from fittest of the fittes album the song Fire Man on this album is heavy bassline , of course his 70s hits too a lot to play from the great Spear, bless up
This Burning Spear request seems to be coming up a lot. Guess I’m going to have to give it some serious consideration👊🏾
Learning this has kept me busy for weeks. Thanks so much for making these resources available. I've learned so much just from this compilation--so nicely put together and so well done!!
Once I'd learned all the notes and lines, I realized I really need to work on my articulation, to make it sound more authentic. Would you consider doing a video that focusses on articulation, note length, muting etc.? Thanks again for the inspiration!
I hope you get to see this response 6 months later but this same idea for a video came to me in the shower this morning.
Hey Don, just came across your channel. More power boss.
How you doing Anthony👊🏾
@@donstrumental8905 all good, can't complain 😁 looking forward to more of your superb videos. Great stuff.
D. Brown
The Half ( that never been told) is essential too imo great picks tho 🎸
Many of these baselines are originally Studio1
