Now THIS is a memorable bass intro...and just when you think it can't possibly get any funkier...he kicks on the distortion pedal.

But memorable is subjective. I've read many reviews of albums where the reviewer claims there is nothing memorable about the album only to listen to it myself and find many of the songs memorable to me.

That's true, but after awhile, on a board like this, I think guys start to rattle off any song that has a bass intro, just trying to one-up the last guy, memorable or not. Ya bunch of elitist humps. Songs with memorable bass intros. - Page 3 337331

Well, the best bass intro of all-time is "Haitian Fight Song" by Charles Mingus...but only myself and about 2 others on this board would even know the tune.

Hey, I mentioned Of Rage And War first! Mad

But I will give One With The World credit for Legions (can't believe I missed that one being the Savatage fanboy that I am). On a related note, Johnny Lee Middelton is a very underrated bassist IMO.
