Love Theory by Kirk Franklin Bass Cover

[@SparklesNJazz]

gospel music is literally the best genre on earth and bass is the best instrument to ever exist so therefore this video makes me extremely happy and all i want is to be able to play this

[@magdielcamilo3091]

YEEEESSS!!!!

[@davidcentinoamores4764]

Way back as a Kid I really wanted to learn play drums but now I realized how the bass makes so much beef into a track.

[@angusm007]

You can say that again 👌

Amen!

Those higher notes in the chorus make for a sweet lick. Nice.

It's the precise timing that makes this cover stand out from all the rest. It is so consistently in the pocket. Great feel, great tone, great job.

[@eugene-d]

True. The very 1st thing one can notice here.

I've listened to this a handful of times, but I still catch myself doing a stank face. This guy killed it. 🙌🙌🙌

[@Undacuvabrutha2]

Travis......bro!!!! Where has this cover been all my life? Literally THE funkiest gospel cover I’ve ever heard. Got me looking for gospel music now and I’m an instrumental funk bassist/drummer. Thank you for your approach to sharing the joy of musicianship with the world.

[@chicagoblues100]

3:08 thats the face a bassist makes when he knows hes fixin' to kick the groove in the ass a bit. UNBELIEVEABLY SOLID mate, cheers, keep playin!

Brooo! You literally have every bass player in the world doing covers of this song!

How can anyone dislike this? This dude grooves hard. Amazing playing!!!! I enjoyed every min of this :)

[@TravisDykes]

Thank you guys so much!

[@adeptusmaximus]

Listening 08/08/2023, your videos have been an inspiration to me to go back to playing bass (last played 2010) not just for outside gigs but to serving back as a bassist in church again. You are such a blessing brother!

[@ericgreen9087]

Funky Bro... I've listened to several covers of this song by others and that riff you do just makes the song totally different. I can't even listen to the original the same. Real talk.

[@danieshrose8238]

IKR! What hurts is that I found a bass cover that a female did, copying Travis exact style and patterns and acting as if she's original.

[@deking1973]

In total agreement

Il’s so true !! I agree.

I’ve seen good covers of this but nothing beats this one. Seemingly so effortless… and so inspired! Praise him!

[@bassweapon]

One of the most pleasent bass covers to watch. That tone, that technique, that bassline and that shot with the colors and everything. Love it, dude! Keep it up!

[@billmckinney6392]

Kudos and a big time thank you Travis…I am what you would call a veteran gospel bassist for my church choir, and they chose to do this song for a special graduation celebration for our youth... I agonized for days upon days running out of time trying to figure out Kirk’s sequencer-like bass synthesizer line, until my drummer suggested that I check out your bass cover…low and behold, you saved the day…well done, really tasteful, kind of jazzy, and harder to finger than it seems with ghost notes and excellent timing, you make it look easy…the Choir Director and the youth choir dug it (even though I fell to tell them that the inspiration came from you)…I hit the subscribe button…do I need to pay royalties?❤️

[@seedsandfishhooks]

Rarely is a bass cover/re-arrangement EVER better than the original. This is amazing. Good job bro.

[@YvonneHarrison-k5v]

This is expertise! He is accompanying the song, not overplaying the bad-azz’d bass. Thump it son!!

This cover... It lifts my spirits. I love playing is with generous volume in the morning. Thanks Travis, you actually effectively helping someone with severe depression.

[@tenda1950]

Graeme Jesus loves you, turn away from your sins and he will give you eternal life. “For the wages of sin is death” Romans 8. Once I realized God knows what’s best for me and put my trust in Jesus. He healed me from my depression, suicidal thoughts and addictions. Living fully for Him and just Him is the key to live out what you were made for.

[@StarLordIRL]

Man, Kirk Franklin had been so consistent over the years. I'm loving his "new" approach which is really nothing new, but the same gospel-centered music with fiiiiiiire musicians and vocalists. Nice cover, man! Ive been following you for a few months, but the church took its bass back recently soooooo... yeah. I dunno. You still have a subscriber!

[@stephennapier8365]

NICE! Travis, you kept the groove, yet added some well placed licks in the right spots without getting in the way of the song. Keep it up!!!

[@powerforward1955]

Mike Anderson , I wholeheartedly agree, Brother Mike! Travis’ restraint is an integral aspect of his music prowess-The Brother is awesome but understands the song is not about him-I’m also mesmerized by his tone and clarity. Listening to him encourages me to take a lot more time practicing accurate fretting and not be sloppy just to get a groove going. Be well.

[@llg7456]

This guy is great on the bass guitar! He is one with that instrument. He glides through the song with simplicity!
