TO TAME A LAND *Iron Maiden* Bass cover Full HD

PLEASE READ !
Here is "To Tame A Land" from the "Piece of mind" album (1983)
You'll notice that :
1) I silenced the other instruments during two key parts of the song
2) I slowed down the video of one key part
so that you might get the technique as closely as possible ;)

I DO NOT own the rights for this song. Stephen Percy HARRIS does.
This is a simple recreation video aimed at showing bassists the notes and techniques used by the original performer of the song, i.e. Steve Harris.

When I was young Steve Harris was me and my best friend’s hero. We recently got in touch with each other after over 20 years of not speaking. We are in our 50’s now and he told me that he had started playing bass, He mentioned a bunch of songs he was trying to learn. I asked him if he was trying any Maiden. He said that he hadn’t listened to them in a very long time. So, a few weeks ago I sent him a couple of your videos. He text me on Thanksgiving and told me he had just ordered a Steve Harris Signature Bass online. I think you made an impression and brought back some memories. 👍

[@jcbass2u]

Quite possibly the most technical piece that Steve has ever written, and also one of my personal favs. Well Done DG, Salute!

[@kylebass6652]

Hang on a minute, is it your job to cover the hardest iron maiden songs perfectly? 😂 what a legend!

Thank you very much ;)

[@kylewinward8847]

Epic cover of my favorite Maiden epic song. I think out of their 80s albums the bass sounded the best on Piece and Killers. Low rumble that was missing from the later 80s albums.

Thanks ;)

[@gally9625]

An absolute pleasure to get to watch you play this. One of my favourite Maiden songs and so expertly executed.

Thank you very much ;)

[@samuelemariotti4129]

One of my favourite Maiden songs!! wonderful!!!

Cheers ;)

[@moreirajesse]

My favourite song of the great Steve Harris

[@letsgobryden5063]

Wicked playing! One of the most darkest and underrated maiden songs. Always on my top maiden songs 💪 👊

[@diegovargas70]

maybe one of the best bass lines of Steve, great work again Didier

Thank you ;)

[@vdLeo-je6os]

And the most difficult and tiring by his statement. Bravo man

[@justinkantner7162]

Some of my favorite bass playing from my favorite Maiden song, Irons Up!

[@osvaldoxavier114]

Duna + Iron Maiden = obra-prima

[@skullkrusher4418]

Such an underrated maiden tune. Amazing cover of an amazing song. Steve's bass playing makes their sound.

Thank you ;)

[@bullycrusher8618]

I fucking love this! Steve Harris is why I started playing the bass! Had a six string first, but saw Maiden in Las Vegas on the Powerslave tour with Warrior back in 85. Rushed out and got a B.C. Rich NJ Warlock.

[@Ismael-st3wx]

That was so satisfying to watch and listen! One of my favorite songs from maiden. You nailed it brother 👏 🙌

Thank you. Don't hesitate to share my vids ;) Cheers !

[@ebeyslough]

I admire DG’s pinky finger strength. I play the pull offs by siding up and pulling with my index finger. DG does it with his pinky. Damn.

[@doc25000]

To Tame A Land & Rime Of The Ancient Mariner, My 2 favorite Iron Maiden tunes, Nice work!

[@Freepepper]

Same here

[@christschinwon]

that was awesome mate. Harris was on fire back then & you found the embers & got them smokin sweet!

[@corbetcrey]

This song was waaay ahead of its time. Great cover by the way :)

[@MarbsMusic]

I love the way to slowed those more difficult parts down, amazing work as always!

Thanks ;)

[@RawBoneGuitardriven]

Another amazing cover. This has to be one of the hardest Maiden songs to pull off for a bassist. One of my most favourite songs from them and you definitely nailed it. Thanks Again. 🔥 UP THE IRONS!!! 🔥

Thank you so much ;)

[@lordofglencoe7084]

Absolutely perfect job , my favorite of the album since a long long time ...

Thanks ;)

[@2002CamaroZ28SS]

I’m a guitar player... but actually watching what the bass player is doing... F#ckin@ AWESOME! Kudos to you!!! Respect! I copied Dave’s B&W Strat as a first guitar... 35 yrs later I’m still playing it to Maiden tunes!

[@PETERODZZ]

We have to find that person that dislike this video. Make him pay! This is classic bass playing !

I have a few prospects... And from my own flesh and blood circle. Thanks for the hidden compliment btw. 😎

[@sergiodambrosio363]

Very awesome! Both playing and tone. You are surely one of the best of those who made bass covers of Iron Maiden. It is indeed, as you said, one of the most technical bassline by Steve Harris. This is one of the "forgotten" songs by Iron Maiden: they should play it live sometimes! This song, and also Alexander The Great, Mother Russia, The Prophecy, The Duellist, Prodigal Son... and some more! A tour all dedicated to the forgotten gems of their discography would be a great idea... Sadly, they do not think so. Greetings from Italy!

[@samuelemariotti4129]

I think everybody would like to listen to the songs you mentioned!! But I think this will never happened

Cheers ;)

[@JoeBlow-bd1eg]

Don't forget Still Life... Bruce and Steve have discussed doing a tour of just epic long songs, so you never know.

[@janrise3247]

Yet another perfect Maiden-cover. Loving it👍

[@stanky9875]

As Lord Vader would say: Impressive. Most impressive.🤘🏼

Cheers ;)

[@Yonlawlawlaw]

Steve Harris onece said this is his Favorite Iron Maiden song

[@throatwobblermangrove8510]

This has always been one of my favorites, but the scansion in the line "He is destined to be a king" is just bad. Hearing Bruce stress the 2nd syllable just to make it fit has always bothered me. In an otherwise outstanding song on an outstanding album, that line makes me cringe every time I hear it. It's just bad lyric writing.

[@comunistanuncatemcomida]

@@throatwobblermangrove8510 I agree. The feeling is kind of "wow the hell i finish this? Just put this, no one look" 😅

[@majkimajk4291]

oh, oh, oh....this moments with only your bass playing are great. superb Job...

[@MrHarry5757]

Quand on est fan de basse, c'est un plaisir de t'écouter. Tu as tapé encore une fois dans le mille !

[@pascallabadie8011]

Bravo mr Gérôme !!!! Du pur maiden,du pur steve Harris, merci pour la technique démontrée, encore bravo !!!

[@amenomistico2]

This is one of the greatest Steve Harris´s songs, this is one of the best songs to play!!! cheers my friend! you rock!! Greetings from México up the irons!

[@lidimamede3318]

To Tame a Land is my fav!!! 😍👏👏 Thank you!!!

[@lurocha8131]

One of my favorite Maiden's bass lines! I gotta learn this!

[@DolkkarToyznstuff]

One of my all time favorites! Even when it was just you playing, I still kept the drumbeat going as I jammed along, great times and great job!

[@obrian2998]

Superbe technique et interprétation. On retrouve toute la dynamique et le feeling du jeu de Steve. Bravo !

[@pascallabadie8011]

Une fois de plus ..you,re a killer of bass guitar....wonderful player.....avec toi j apprend grave....chapeau mister didierharrisgerome....yeaaaahh!!!!

[@novkorova2774]

Found this when telling a friend who plays bass to learn this. Well done!

[@ThePadrewu]

Thank you, bass brother! Ya hit it outta the park, leaving the world a better place. Up those Irons!

Thanks ;

[@ninaholicova3984]

Where are the times...me and my brother we were listening to this again and again. Thank you for your effort! You' ve transferred me to that time.

Cheers Nina ;)

[@rockstarfriend2049]

Great job on this challenging bass line!!!

[@lukifender76]

Fantastic! One big favorite!! Thanks

[@edsonsouza6016]

Awesome performance!!!

[@danbosman2246]

Awesome!!!! 👍🤘been jammin Steve Harris Iron Maiden bass licks for 40 years now one of my favorite bassist 👍

Thanks ;)

[@ChrisFranklyn]

Oh this is just great. Perfect camera angles to see the hands at work too, thanks!

Thank you ;)

[@MrHarry5757]

Vidéo toujours au top et qui redonne une seconde jeunesse à ce formidable titre.

Merci beaucoup ;)

[@drizztdourden6921]

a nice cover mate ! keep go and always up the irons \m/

[@Ericlk77]

My favourite song. What a bass line

Cheers ;)

[@esoteric5277]

Can't really recall for sure if it was Maiden or Sabbath that was my first favorite hard rock band, but no doubt that the original Dune series by Frank Herbert were and still are my favorite SciFi novels. That said, you can only (re)read a novel so many times. But you can listen to a piece of music forever and again. Just a piece of my mind ... Keep on bending them strings Didier 👍👌🔊

[@jupiter7x7]

Another awesome cover! Great production! Your bass sounds killer!

Cheers and the sound you hear is from the bass itself. Only a tiny EQ and comp. That's it.

[@MrAndrebatera]

Masterpiece bass line. Well played my friend. Congratulations!!!

Cheers ;)

[@scadaval]

Awesome!! I’m not a bassist. I’m a physician. But it was great to have this kind of “behind the scenes experience”. Congratulations Didier. Merci beaucoup from Brazil.

My pleasure ;)

[@robertdoorenbosch6655]

What an insane song.... Well played!

Cheers ;)

[@kylewinward8847]

An always mesmerizing bass line and song. The reflection on your pickguard is also mesmerizing. Parts such as 0:56 to 1:16 it looks like an alien planet surface image akin to the photos of Venus' surface from the Soviet Venera program. Fitting for the song, eh?

[@cliffstarkweather337]

I have watched several of your Video's. Keep the awesome work. " Up The Irons"

Thanks ;)

[@stimulus93]

Majestic performance once again!

Thank you ;)

[@CYBERJASE]

great bass playing, as always! Congratulations!!!

Cheers mate 😁

[@cozinhadopoeta]

Amazing!

[@muhammadsaleh7504]

my feveret songs!!!

[@alaresrock9810]

Great performance! I love the lyrics, I am a huge fan of Dune, my favorite sci fi book

Cheers ;)

[@michellavoie8111]

Superbe prestation! Étant un fan depuis plus de 35 ans, ayant vu une vingtaine de concert, je peux dire que j'apprécie grandement votre talent. Très agréable de pouvoir constater de la sorte la complexité du jeu de Steve Harris. Up the Irons... de Montréal!

Un grand merci. 😁

[@soccrattes2295]

Dude that's amazing! One of the most overlooked Maiden gems. And you can see Gedy Lee's influence on Steve on this one quite clearly I think..

Cheers mate ;) You can have a more detailed view of the tricky parts of this song in my video here if you like: kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y4bSYXeursiCsLc Take care. DG

[@johnnymata9133]

Incredible! A Great Album And A Great "World Piece" Tour. This Took Place At The Long Beach Arena. Twisted Sister And Saxon Opened.

[@fly54110]

Whaou ! Quelle exécution top niveau !!!

[@davidvicars6688]

You sir are a bad ass on that bass, just like Steve, thanks for showing the close ups on your playing. Cheers

Cheers, my pleasure ;)

[@mikemckercher1051]

Another awesome performance, Great job Didier

Thank YOU 😉

[@michaelwedema2112]

Spot on! Well played.

Cheers !

[@ThePyrrhus8]

Une de mes chansons préférées.Une perfection qui me fait voyager à chaque fois dans l'univers de Franck Herbert.Une claque monumentale qui n'a pas pris une ride depuis 37 ans. Trés bon choix de cover 👏🏻

Merci beaucoup. Effectivement, il y a du génie derrière tout ça ;) DG

[@vlobster7660]

This is like a bass triathlon!!

Cheers ;)

[@philgrimsey3637]

I'm hooked on your bass covers, mate. As someone who is thinking of learning bass, i can only really dream of playing like this..

Thank you very much. I can give lessons on Skype too ;)

[@philgrimsey3637]

Didier GÉRÔME thanks for that offer. Will certainly consider it once I have a solid foundation in place.

[@bodokillo]

Este video me pone los pelos de punta!!!

[@pepezoomba]

Another great work!

Thank you ;)

[@rkamen1]

Fantastic job! I played along with this song a couple of times today and got a charley horse in my left arm!

[@rkamen1]

I have the blue steve harris fender p bass too! So nice and heavy!

Thanks ;)

[@LeleMelo]

Awesome cover dude!! Great technique. I love Maiden's latest albums, but I really miss this type of super bass driven tunes. Piece of Mind is the album for that!

Indeed ! Cheers mate ;)

[@giacomorinaldi]

greattttttttt cover !!

[@faamecanic1970]

Damn dude...nailed it! Good job...and I sooo want that blue sparkle Steve Harris Signature Fender Pbass!

Cheers mate! Unfortunately it is now discontinued and replaced by this Mexican white one... The genuine blue one can only be bought second hand but very few owners may agree to sell it away I guess... Take care. DG

[@briacdavid2618]

Merci Didier ! C'est parfait !!!! et sobre !!! contrairement à toutes ces videos de reprises dont on se demande la finalité > rendre hommage et promouvoir un morceau ou juste pouvoir montrer sa tronche pour son 1/4 d'heure de gloire !

Merci ;) En effet, on ne voit même pas la mienne (de tronche) lol.

[@fredericpoupon6107]

Énorme !! sacré niveau technique et de vitesse. Impossible pour moi de tenir le tempo !! Bravo

Un grand merci !

[@fysy9989]

Incredible playing! I wish I was as good 😅

[@stephenmartin4895]

Awesome dude

[@dav.bat.3511]

Salut, j'aime bien sur votre chaîne les reprises d'Iron Maiden (BASS COVER), elles sont super biens ! ! ! Ça me rappelle mon adolescence quand j'écoutais pas mal de ce groupe, & d'autres aussi !

Merci beaucoup. Je suis justement entrain de travailler "Can I play with madness" qui sera publiée très bientôt. Au plaisir de vous lire.

[@Lobde]

I never Made it past the 5 minute Mark or so in one Go. Respect man

Cheers ;)

[@egbertwoltjer4491]

Nice one..! got two songs i want to hear Only the good die young or Stranger in a Strange land..

Carai u cara é um monstro kkk muito bom 🤘

[@Shimmings]

I really enjoyed this! It was really interesting to compare it with the same cover by Bruno Masquio, yours is a lot more aggressive,

[@musicfanatic3070]

Good cover dude

[@docholiday2932]

Very nice playing, I don’t think I’ve heard a better cover…

Thank you ;)

[@damianyaxchilan8503]
