      @Lyle Wilson You mean Ed King? No, he'd been switched back to guitar, which is why he was able to bounce riffs back and forth with Gary to create this song. It's possible he had input on the bass part, but Leon played bass on Second Helping save for I Need You and Don't Ask Me No Questions. So you're right, but different song

    Yeah! Finally, a bass line we guitarists can actually play... simple. It's when you hit us with Entwislte, Geddy Lee, John Taylor or Dee Murray that my head starts to hurt and I realize what a bunch of hacks we guitar players are. Bass rules. Thanks once again for a great, albeit easy, bass demo.

    Speaking of ears, your covers are really ear-openers to some bass lines that get buried in mixes or for whatever other reason we don't pay that much attention to, even as bass players.

    Ed King is/was so underrated. So many don't even know who he is! He and Al Kooper built this song... and then both of them escaped most of the Skynyrd drama and curse (including the plane crash). Played this dittie at a couple gigs (heh -- as in EVERY THIRD GIG for the past 20 years!) Not at church, though...

      Sometimes, if I'm struggling with a part, I'll use a process of elimination, using some of the obvious note combinations in order to rule note out. I'm sure I tried this combination but, for some reason, decided against it. I believe you may be right though.

    • @kennet7837

    Very nice - my wife's mother's family is from Alabama, and now I have no excuse not to learn this.
    And I, too, like the sound of that Guild. So many basses, but so many practical things on which one has to spend money . . .
    I'm not sure where to post suggestions, so I'm putting mine on your most recent video (I think this is the most recent one). There are several covers of this on UA-cam, but none as useful as I've found yours. Have you ever thought of covering The 5th Dimension's "Aquarius/Let the Sunshine In," specifically "Let the Sunshine In" (which I think starts around 2:19)? I really love Joe Osborn's playing on that track, and while I've figured out some of it, I know I'm missing a lot of the nuances that you always seem to hear.
    Anyway, just a suggestion.

    I'm so thankful to dependably rely on you to play the exact part correctly. I've been playing such a BORING, LAME HALF-ASSED -no, -QUARTER-assed version of this song for 30 years that I'm now ashamed of myself! I don't know why I never properly learned it.
    When I got the subscription notice for this one I thought "Hmm, well if Troy's doing it there must be a reason". What an eye-opener. I guess sometimes when you think "Yeah yeah I know it" "It's just 3 chords" or "I learned it good enough" at age 15, it sticks. Makes me wonder what other songs I've been dumbing-down & butchering for 30 years...
    This song is boring no more, thank you!!

      TJH3113 thank you for replying. I've tried my iPhone and iPad. Both are the same. Your other videos work on them without issue.
      Strange. I'll have a look on my lap top.
      Thanks for all your videos, all very informative and enjoyable. I also show them to my wife so she realises that my bass collection is still insignificant next to yours!
      Keep up the good work!!

    Hey Troy, may I suggest going back to the Pronounced album and give Poison Whisky a listen. Tasty little bass line written by Leon Wilkinson but played by Edward Calhoun King. Think you may like it.

    I love the tone on this track. What kind of strings do you use? I switched to flat wounds a few years ago on my main bass, but I decided it was time to change the strings on my five string... it had been a decade so it was probably time. :) I replaced the roundwounds on it with a new set (Ernie Ball Cobalts) and I *hated* them! Even after playing them in for a couple weeks they still set my teeth on edge after the last few years playing flats. But I think if I go all flats I'll miss having the option of the little more punch from the rounds.

    I've never noticed the Neil Young part. With the bass being this forward and played this perfectly, it becomes a much more interesting song all the way through. FREEBIRD! Just kidding. -.-

      @TJH3113  7 років тому +2

      Now that you've heard it, it cannot be unheard. From learning some of Leon's bass lines I've found that he has no throwaway notes, every one is significant.

      The same 2 or 3 who hit just about every video. It really doesn't bother me and I have pretty good idea who it may be. It's a little sad in a way. The one that bugged me just a bit was the James Taylor cover, "You've Got a Friend." You've got to be a real hater to go out of your way to dislike that. Thanks a lot.

    I love the story behind this song, he hated Watergate and the (I think demacrate) governor of Alabama, so he made this song because of it. If I'm not mistaken the governor of Alabama was crooked (....well more crooked then most of the others lol)
