Great job Greg, it was wonderful to work with legendary producer Tom Dowd. I don't remember playing all those notes though, haha.

[@BassCovers]

Hi Laurence...wow! Thank you very much for your comment. That's very cool of you :) haha...I'm sure they'd all come back once you picked up your bass again ;) I love the big lick near the end to the low B...oh ya! Thanks again...very nice of you :)

[@lcottle5033]

Cheers Greg. Lovely playing mate, the Music man sounds great too.

[@Cavediver762]

This bass line is criminally underrated. Perfect 10/10

[@Bamainjc]

A lot more in that song than I realized. Another great one !

[@BassCovers]

Thanks very much

[@WSS_the_OG]

I never realised the bassline was so busy in this tune. Bassist is doing a lot more than Mr. Slowhand Clapton, in fact.

[@BassCovers]

Ya, it's one of those songs where the bass just kind of blends in and you don't really hear how involved it is.

[@Kimberlygunn]

What a bass line! Hats off to you!

[@BassCovers]

Thanks very much. It's a good line for sure!

[@Kimberlygunn]

@@BassCovers Do you have a tab for 4 string by chance?

[@BassCovers]

@@Kimberlygunn Sorry...only 5 string

Hey Greg, Great selection. Fantastic playing and transcription, as usual. Wow, a lot more to this bass line than I thought. I learned a lot again. Thank you for doing this one. It is among my favorites. Frank

I would've lost that bet. I always thought it was Nathan East too. Another great job Greg!!! Thank you for sharing. I've loved this song ever since it came out. I was a Senior in HS. Brings back memories.

That is one busy bass line

[@BassCovers]

I guess it is pretty busy isn't it?

[@markbass354]

wow sounds good Gregg nice bass is it new

[@BassCovers]

Hi Mark, thank you very much. I appreciate it :) I've had that bass for about 10 years now. When I need the low B or the MusicMan, it comes out ;)

[@Fiberform70]

have you ever heard a band called Lucifer's Friend? Their bass player Dieter Horns is among the best rock bassists ever IMO, very cool style and tone. a couple standout tracks (among many) are "blind freedom", "sorrow", "free hooker", "fugitive". well worth a listen for any bass guitar enjoyers out there. it would be great to see someone pay tribute to them.

[@BassCovers]

I'm not familiar with that band, but I'll check them out...thanks!

[@oscarelias3111]

Perfect¡ please Run or bad influence... 🙏🏻

[@BassCovers]

I'll check it out...thanks!
