    It sucks that I only just found this now, 10 Years after it was posted. Good job, sounds great!

    Paul Raven remains a criminally underrated bass player. His lines were simple but tasty, providing a groove that Youth's work for KJ (brilliant as it is in its own right) doesn't have.

    Probably one of the best bass covers I've ever heard, the riffs were perfect and you nailed the sound! I don't know if you still play anymore, but I'd love to see more covers in the future if you have the time!

    My friend...Happiness is an understatement. This is great to hear not just for the people that like to cover songs and do what they do best, as with Bill, but for the people that love watching his magic fingers play perfectly clean and on time.

  • @PookBidault
    @PookBidault 15 років тому +3

    Excellent going, Bill! Out of all your basses, I think this has to be one of my favorites.

    For those searching for a tab, it's an easy bassline. You can listen to Eighties (Kid Jensen Seesion) as a bonus track in the last CD edition of "Night Time". The bassline is clear even if 2 small variations are added....a bit boring sometimes to play always the same thing :).
    On the CD "Wilful Days", another version of Eighties called "Serious Dance Mix" with some parts with only the bassline...but one note is different from the original one.

    Fantastic stuff mate. Earlier KJ material had some brilliant basslines. Love Like Blood is an absolute classic.
    If you get the chance you should try doing some of the early stuff by The Cult. Jamie Stewarts playing is simple but very catchy. Resurrection Joe is a good one.

    Thanks, and sorry about the delay in getting back to you. It's a 1984 J,K. Lado, just look up J.K. Lado on google. He made some serious guitars back then and still does. Take care and keep in touch my friend. -Billy

    @bassmancan 12 років тому

    Hi Billy, I have a J.K. Lado Model Solo IV lefty bought in 1981.
    Thru neck body. Heavy weight but it sound amazing.
    Unfortunately, with the years the neck has twist and last year, I ordered to P.Laporte in Montreal to built a new neck with a smaller head stock. Pierre gaves to this bass a new life.
    Dimarzzio jazz bass on the bridge and dimarzzio P bass pick up on the neck.
    Tomtebass has right, the bass sound like a Ric.

    Billy,
    Did you change the tune on the bass to play this song. My bass is tuned that I play from E and in that case I start from flat E string. I think I see you are starting from what would be in my case upper F. Pls clarify. Thanks in advance
