I just finished a transcription of the full bass part from Prince’s “Do Me Baby.” This is off his 1981 album Controversy, and is one of the most interesting 7 minute, 43 second ballads I’ve heard. The bass playing is almost as nasty as the lyrics…

It’s been a minute since my last transcription. I really like how subtle some of the parts are in this Dirty Projectors track — not just in the bass line, but in the arrangement as a whole. Check out the transcription / song, and let me know if there are any errors.
This guitar solo is from track 2 of Prince’s eponymous album, “Why You Wanna Treat Me So Bad?”
I’m not sure if Prince plays the solo, or if Dez Dickerson does, but I know it’s rad. Enjoy the transcription:
Fuck You
No, seriously. Fuck You if you don’t like Cee-Lo’s latest Motown/Jamie Lidell-inspired ode to gold diggers.
I transcribed the bass line for your pleasure. I like how simple most of the song is, but how obese the fills are in the bridge section. Maybe you agree too?
