Hard to list only one. "BERNADETTE" played by James Jamerson on the original Four Tops recording is a present favorite.

I agree with "Bernadette" and maybe "What's Going On" by Marvin Gaye.

Jamerson had the feel and the sound....

Being that you've all took my first choices, how about "Ain't Too Proud To Beg"?

Most anything from Live At Leeds, great sound IMO.

I don't believe John played a Precision on The Real Me, not the studio version anyways. I'm pretty sure he was using Thunderbirds or a Fenderbird by that time... :wink:

Well, then I guess I'd have to go with PIGS by Pink Floyd

Ow, that's a bad one. I don't know exactly how it happened but, I was holding my grandson and he was being a little bear. I tried everything to make him happy and started humming "Turkey In The Straw", now he thinks it's the greatest thing in the world. Started when he was 2 months old, now he's 6 months old.

To go back on topic, virtually any Queen song. John Deacon was awesome.

How about anything from Derek and the Dominoes. Everything done on a Precision by the late, great Carl Radle.
