Rush - "Distant Early Warning" (Bass Cover)

  • There is something about Geddy Lee basslines from the 80s. His whole way about them is just out of this world. I rediscovered Rush albums from that decade during lock-down and did a deeper dive just recently. From the basslines' composition, the licks and overall tonal qualities... masterpieces all over.
    Bass: Wal MK2
    Tuning: Standard

    The WAL tone is just immaculate lol would love to see "The Pass" on that beast, such a great track. Great job as always Kello! And that fill at 3:46 is just wild lmaaaoooo

      Umm … maybe you don’t understand why I said that - it’s for incredibly fast and punchy players (so you can make out every note/ghost-note’s)
      So in that respect - it’s Geddy who is was built for - no one else would I say ‘God built it for’
      Great players have played with the Wal and we don’t need to go through them all.

    October 26, 1991. Presto tour. Eric Johnson opening. 4th song was Distant Early Warning. Floor seating, center aisle. Great visibility of the stage. I really hope you had a chance to see Rush live, Kello! Such incredible musicians. For every bit of magic they had in the studio, there was twice as much magic in their live shows!

    And you got a wal bass my goodness. The tone is incredible sounds better than geddy steinberger. Which is what I assume He used to record that album( fender/ rickenbacher? )as well. I dont think he was using the wal by then. I saw him using it during hold your fire tour In eighty nine in new orleans. But that is a beautiful bass. I don't care if it is during the keyboard years. Kid gloves Red lenses Are great songs but my two favorites are the enemy within and the body electric. Thank you so much for the demonstration.
