It’s like he just plays a completely different tune than Mal and Angus, haha…

Maybe because hes playing bass and not guitar. LOL. I used to play guitar and went to bass. Holy hell in a shit basket. Totally different. I had to learn how to play with fingers instead of a pick. No problem there. Fairly simple. Takes abot 5 minutes. Well maybe a couple of days because i lied. I am in the minority of bassist because i think a pick soynds better and gives me moer options. Virtually impossible to palm mute with fingers. You cant play "ghost notes" either. Also you have to choke on the neck more to kill the top strings. But bass puritans actually think funk is good and slapping is good. Personally with rock and roll i think 8th notes sound really good to cover the guitars and on metal the same but dirty as fuck with distortion. For the record YYZ by Rush. I learned it in a day. Dont care for it. To much funk. Same with Geezer. Cliff Williams and Tom Arraya? Oh yeah. Same with any hair metal band. As for Gene Simmons? Oh yeah. And trained bassists call these people simple? Bass should be simple and not too technical. You add to the drums and guitar playing around the roots. Anyone that plays bass should play probably the simplist of ACDC. Shot Down in Flames. By the end of the solo your forearm is burning and ready for the chorus. But then you have a fill in before the chorus. Then in the outro you have to play the D octave and A octave and slide the A down in perfect time. And hit it again. That my friends is what a bassist does. Its harder to keep time as a bassist than it is as a guitarist.

He is doing inversions. Cliff is great bass guitarist. On time, in pocket
