This guy does a great job! Bass looks familiar. Is this one of you guys?

I love that bass part.  This is the method I used to learn the bass way back in the late 70's.  Used vinyl records back then, sometimes cassettes.  It sure is different playing the same part with a live band though!

That is also one of my favorites - and a VERY impressive part.  Nicely played!

That looks a LOT like my '78, but mine has white DiMarzio pups...

Very nice indeed. It would be interesting to know where exactly in the writing process the bassline gets decided.

The climbup has a stutter note but other than that, excellent job.
Did that song for 6 years in a cover band in 74~80....
