[@toddhamby]

Yay!!!! I hope this helps out then Marla. Let me know how it goes learning it :)

[@lesessmore]

Love Steely Dan...really like the phrasing of their tunes. And you nailed it...again! I really appreciate your attention to detail on the stuff you cover. You play on these videos like it's your gig...and that's a pretty big deal IMO.

[@toddhamby]

you are too kind Kelly! Thank you :)

[@kevinlynch2248]

I love Chuck Rainey too and you always do him justice when you cover his stuff Todd!

[@toddhamby]

thank you Kevin!

[@oldskoolgroove]

Chuck Rainey is a baaad man and is on my personal Mt. Rushmore of bassists as well. You captured his feel perfectly...excellent cover!

[@toddhamby]

thank you so much oldskool!

[@kingsecho3351]

Wow so good! I’ve been trying to learn this one

[@toddhamby]

Thank you Brett!

[@kingsecho3351]

I’m getting so close on this one. The verse riff change is a tricky timing

[@emeathooks]

Very nice. I was checking out videos to see if Rainey was doing any slapping on this like he did for Peg., but I guess it's thumb free. Good job on this.

[@toddhamby]

thank you John. I appreciate the kind words.

[@TheMeditationSpaLounge2024]

jazzplr5...yes! I have a 5 string but it takes getting used to when youve been playing the 4 for many years..LOL!!

[@sharktooth5000]

The sound was Perfect and the playing was above excellent! Hint, I think you could have used a 4 string as I never saw your thumb leave the B string. Great job, Very musical Todd : )

[@toddhamby]

thank you so much sharktooth! I only hit one note at on the B string, very easily could have been done on a 4 string but I just love the way this bass sounds :) thanks again for the kind works my friend.

[@TheFreightBeast]

I didn’t know Trevor from GTA5 played the bass.

[@toddhamby]

Trevor is multi-faceted :)

[@TheFreightBeast]

@@toddhamby Sir... this was a great cover!!!

[@PassionJo777]

Lol I’ve got a know how many bass guitars do you own? Hey nineteen please next time 🕺🕺😅🕺🎹💃

[@toddhamby]

hahahaha! I have a more than I deserve :)

[@PassionJo777]

I have tried to count them all bunched up there 😆 You have definitely spent a lifetime of this on great equipment ❤️🔥😎 Have you played with any bands as any band would be lucky to have u-hard to find good bassists(most people wanna play guitar 🎸)

[@TheMeditationSpaLounge2024]

The only thing is youre doing it with a 5 STRING! I was doing it on a 4..LOL!!

[@jazzplr5]

marla hamilton 5 strings probably too confusing for ya?

[@toddhamby]

Uh oh :)
