Part 2/7:
Taking us back to 1977, the Bee Gees crafted some of the most intricate and commanding basslines, thanks largely to Morris Gibb and his unique style on the Rickenbacker bass. It's fascinating how these baselines diverged in vibe from much of the disco genre, merging innovation with a catchy groove. There's a particular chorus moment that stands out, where the bass seems to bounce off a five chord—a choice that piques intrigue and creates a lasting impact.
