Song of the week "sentimental" by Porcupine Tree
Only bass guitar allowed. Which is the best song without any lead/rhythm/acoustic guitar ? Slightest of guitar would make it ineligible.

I can think of 3 such good songs

- On the Way to club by Blur
- Idiotique by Radiohead
- Enjoy the silence by Depeche Mode


But may be the blur song is my fav out of these 3

Please tell me other songs which u think are good but without any lead/rhythm or acoustic guitar

Thanks

Anything by Morphine, Primus, Primus, and Primus.
Or Les Claypool in general. Did I mention Primus...

Radar Love - Golden Earring is close..

I'm pretty sure there wasn't any actual "lead guitar" playing on some infamous Queen tracks.. Brian might have been making noises but it wasn't any kind of lead riff.. tracks like Get Down Make Love, Body Language, Another One Bites The Dust... Under Pressure comes damned close as well...

Victor Wooten and Flea both have similar under their belts.

And the late, great, sorely missed Cliff Burton's incredible "Anesthesia (Pulling Teeth)"
