Digging into one of the great unsung bassists of Soul, Disco, and Popular music: Ronnie Baker. The longtime Philadelphia International Records bassist worked alongside Gamble & Huff, Thom Bell, and others to play bass on some of the most popular songs of the past 50 years, including music by The O'Jays, The Spinners, The Delfonics, Harold Melvin & the Blue Notes, and many, many others.
In an amazing career that stretched across the 1970s, I'll pick my 10 favorite bass lines from his vast catalog, break down and play each one, and talk about why I think each one is great.
Don't miss this musical tribute and history lesson on one of the greatest bassists to play in the post-James Jamerson era!
