Sweet Home Chicago - Blues Brothers - Bass Cover - Request

[@dumpstadee8371]

oh yeah, thanks for putting the transcriptions on top

[@BassCovers]

No problem, glad you like it. Thanks!

[@jmvanick]

Yet another fine example of how talented these bass players were. Their runs and improv show that they were just as in-tune with the band and vocals as the lead guitarists. Great transcription too!

[@BassCovers]

Absolutely ;) Thanks for the comment.

[@badidou69000]

Un super morceau, toujours agréable à jouer, merci

[@BassCovers]

Have fun with it :)

[@LucasDT]

I wore out the tape and a few CDs of this soundtrack Duck was da man! Thanks Greg for a great addition.

[@BassCovers]

haha...my pleasure Clarke...thanks!

[@BradleyDillman]

I was Duck Dunn in a Blues Brothers tribute for 7 years, this was ALWAYS fun to play! Thanks for bringing back the memories, Greg, nicely done. Duck would be proud. :)

[@BassCovers]

haha...that's cool :) Did you guys tour around a bit? Did you have the pipe?

[@BradleyDillman]

@@BassCovers our shows were mostly in southern BC, festivals, theatres, community centers. Yes, I did have the pipe! Along with the full show band, Jake and Elwood did/do a 2 man show with the Bluesmobile which is a replica of the original, even has the giant speaker on the roof. It follows them for live events like parades and car shows.

[@BassCovers]

Sounded like fun :)

[@petbadger]

You just can't walk it like that and not smile. :-) Duck is a legend. Thank you for another great transcription and all your hard work.

[@BassCovers]

haha...thanks Pat :)

[@marketguy2]

As usual. Wonderful. I never noticed before how Duck made his bass sound like a trombone at one point during the solo. Loved it. This was an incredible lesson on Walking Bass played by a Master. Thank you Greg.

[@BassCovers]

Thank you very much, I'm glad you enjoyed it :)

[@pizzicatobassplayer]

Awesome!, how it's a shuffle feel written in eighth notes. Or a triplet feel. ❤ The White Sox too 🙂😊

[@BassCovers]

I prefer to see 8th notes with a metric modulation symbol. Otherwise it can be too much information and gets kind of busy...imo ;) Thanks!

[@Mr_Fretbuzz]

What a great tune… well done!

[@BassCovers]

Thanks a lot!

[@Bamainjc]

Horns and a bluesy bass line, nothing better !

[@BassCovers]

hehe...fun :)

[@stevethompson6130]

It's a fun tune to play, need to get up to your speed brother. Nice job!

[@BassCovers]

Thanks man...good luck and have fun :)

[@aaronkelly4255]

"...Orange whip?" lol

[@BassCovers]

hahaha...what does that mean? :)

[@aaronkelly4255]

@@BassCovers its a quote from the movie - when John Candy is sitting with the other cops at the table in the concert hall as they all awaiting the Blues Brothers to appear... while they waiting for Jake and Elwood he asks the other cops if they want an Orange Whip...lol

[@BassCovers]

ahhh...gotcha. Good memory ;)

[@aaronkelly4255]

@@BassCovers hehe well, Scientists say Bass Players DO have the greatest memory recall...lol

[@Cavediver762]
