We admit it, all right? It’s probably impossible to state with 100 percent accuracy what the most “recycled” bass part ever recorded is. Even a two-note I-V fill counts as a bass-line, after all, in which case there are thousands of possible contenders... but it’s definitely reasonable to suggest that Chic’s immortal ‘Good Times’, featuring the prematurely-departed Bernard Edwards’ instantly-recognisable line, is a good contender for that title.
