Change - Paradise (Bass Cover)

[@antonigeli294]

How this did not climb in the POP charts in USA. Pure injustice. An inquiry got to be opened. Walking on air to quote the producers.

[@TremaynePrice]

The way this song drove, it should have done WAY better than it did. This is one of my favorite songs of all time.

[@bigsteve1966]

Great playing , you were spot on i like that very little ad libbing did a great job ..Change is such a great Bass Heavy band love it such songs as "Heaven of my life" Mutural Attraction" "Paradise" thank you big guy ...keep up the funk

[@carolinaking843]

This has always been my JAM. Love me some Change. You sir, are a BOSS on that bass. Massive talent bro!

[@haydnplaysgames]

One of the most important groups in music, highly underated...

[@keithbarrett656]

This dude is killin' it!!. Great job. I'm a white dude and this was my very favorite R&B/Soul band back in the 80's. They should have been much bigger in the States

[@TremaynePrice]

Agreed, but fortunately my mother had me wise when I was a kid. So even though I had no idea who Davide Romani was, I knew his bass playing. And thank you kindly.

[@keithbarrett656]

@@TremaynePrice you're very welcome. I was a bass player also in the 80's and this was my jams back in the day and it still hasn't got old. I now have every album they made on cd.

[@TremaynePrice]

@@keithbarrett656 I knew of Miracles & The Glow Of Love, but didn't get much chance to enjoy more of their sound until I was grown. I can't believe I missed out on "The Very Best In You" and "Hold Tight" when they were first out, I love them now.

[@tracymcdowell5967]

You Killed it best and cleanest play along yet...Great job Trey!!!

[@richardrichard5409]

Wow, simply brilliant, thanks 😎😎😎😎 Davide Romani, one of my favourite bass players. 👍

[@TremaynePrice]

Thanks. Mine, too.

[@Vejur9000]

Great remix of an incredible opening for a song. Paradise is one of Change's masterpieces,. Epic feel good music. One of the most hopeful, inspiring pop songs ever. In short, magic.

[@mainmajo]

I feel back in the 80s. Thank you. 💭🎼🔈👍

[@rodenyhudson]

That's man, coming from you this means a lot to me, thank you for taking the time to hold this conversation and I will take everything you said and run with it

[@NicolasHinderling]

I always struggle with staying crisp and not dragging to this song… and you killed it!!

[@TremaynePrice]

Thank you kindly!

[@cameron_fairchild]

Thanks Tre, great timing, guitar in tune, and changed it up a little to make it your own. 5 stars.

Ouuuuch! Searching for my fave bass covers and low and behold I keep bumping into you.❤🎶

[@TremaynePrice]

I'm glad I cover a lot that you like. 😊 I usually think people don't care much anymore about the music I listen to and cover, feel like I'm getting old.

[@SuperMusicology101]

wonderful Job loved Change and that bass ripped you ripped it love Paradise since 80s and New York

[@invisigoat]

Great, largely unsung hit and excellent cover!

[@TremaynePrice]

Thanks!

[@pamelashorter1215]

You are PLAYIN' the heck out of that guitar! It took me 9 years to find this song (81-90( because NO ONE knew what I was talking about. When i found the title, I never let it go again. Searching for another video today, I came across yours. It made me smile big-time 😀😀😎

[@TremaynePrice]

Thank you kindly! I was fortunate that my mother had the 45 when I was a kid, so I always remembered.

[@forrestmanueljr9196]

You're a great Bassist! I like your style!

[@DEEKATHY251]

I always thought Change was a part of Chic. I'm trying to learn this song on Bass as well as "Hold Tight" Great job

[@TremaynePrice]

Hold Tight is a good one, love that song. And thanks for the kind words.

Awesome job. I just found your channel. If you like slap bass Mark King is back in action using the old Jaydee bass. Pretty cool stuff. Band name is Level 42.

[@michelleberlin4043]

Oh BTW... I see you got a bass, guitar, and drums... you're a very talented man I admire that. Keep On Keepin On!!

Thanks! For the comment, like, AND subscription.

[@micheldielen845]

I like it, I like it a lot! One of my favorite songs to play bass along. A P-bass naturally :-)

[@margix1172]

The bass player from Change is Italian as well as the creator of these incredible disco-funk songs.

[@TremaynePrice]

I know, it's still amazing to me that they recorded the instruments in Italy, and did the vocals in NYC for at least some of their songs.

[@juansilvestri2238]

Puro Funky!!!!!!

[@francinelalonde1635]

WoW!!!!!!!!

[@moroccoview]

Great

[@cathydott1341]

Nice funk!

[@doriankearney3318]

Awesome!! You would be doing us a very big favor by telling us what effects are used to make the tone

[@TremaynePrice]

This is a DAW setup I used 5 years ago, so I'm not sure aside from likely chorus and compression. Correction...I just pulled up the project file from this. It's only flanger, nothing else. Not even compression.

[@somedude2630]

STANK!

[@TremaynePrice]

I tried a little!

[@alghaniabul3083]

Man you think you do a bass cover on Very Best In You and Miracles by Change. I loved that group

[@TremaynePrice]

The Very Best In You, I've worked on in recent months. It's ready to record, I just have to find the time to sit down and do it. Things have been hectic lately. Thanks for the listen/comment/request.

[@trustconectdoo8094]

Hip hip hooray for the Bass guitar in Paradise CHANGE

[@nachodoggy]

dude can you do a cover of Heaven Of My Life by Change as well?

[@TremaynePrice]

I can add it to the list. *shrug*

[@nachodoggy]

@@TremaynePrice hell yeah. you're really good at these man. keepin the funk alive

[@TwinCitiesOxygen]

Sounds great. I wonder if they used a P on the recording. Is there chorus on yours here?

[@TremaynePrice]

Thank you kindly. I've seen pictures of Davide Romani with a P in more recent years, but never with one back then. There was probably chorus on this, this was an old DAW setup though. I think there was chorus and slight compression, but I don't remember what else. Edit: I pulled up the DAW project file for this. There was no chorus or compression...just flanger.

[@rodenyhudson]

What would you say where I should start to get me understanding better, I already know all the major and minor chords, and know how to watch someone and copy what they play but I know it's much more than that just watching you play

[@TremaynePrice]

I'd say once you have chords/scales, start kind of loosely playing along with songs you know pretty well...pay a lot of attention to basslines you like. Try to kind of isolate them. And by "loosely," I mean don't start like I did...try improvisation & throwing little fills in here & there. I spent probably 15+ years playing orchestral music on the trumpet before I ever touched a bass, & what it taught me, was it was imperative that I play music EXACTLY as it was written. Which, when I started playing bass, translated into "exactly as it was originally recorded." Don't put yourself in that box. Listen to a LOT of players, PLAY a lot, but don't be stuck on eXACTly what people do on recordings. Once you have a good idea of an original recording...try to find a live performance of the same song. Continue seeing what other people are doing on cover videos. Hell, go listen to people play out/live. Not telling you you have to do all of those things, or trying to dictate. Just what I think would be the most helpful. But most importantly...PLAY, and make sure you have a good sense of tempo/rhythm. Even if you f*** up, don't get discouraged. If you can play well through any key in TIME, you'll likely sound/groove better than people who have fancy "licks" but can't mesh with the drummer...or anyone else.

[@rodenyhudson]

Did you take lessons, im leaning the bass but on my own, I really don't know where to start with what I should know, I just look at bass players playing music and I copy what I see untill I get and and I use Yougician

[@TremaynePrice]

rodney hudson I think I took like two lessons at one point, which at least got me to pluck with my fingers instead of my thumb (you can see that b.s. in a couple of my oldest videos). But other than that, I was fortunate enough to have already played other instruments and at least had a general understanding.

[@rodenyhudson]

How long you been playing bass

[@TremaynePrice]

rodney hudson Tooling around with it since the mid-late 1990's. Didn't get serious about it until 2011 or 2012.

[@doylehargrave233]

Bruh is lopin….

[@bassistdc]

You can't play this style on the end of the neck with that thumb rest there.

[@caprimartin7099]

You're wonderful... I love this song. Wow... ; )
