Hours By The Window by Level 42 (bass duet arrangement) - Karl Clews on bass

My arrangement, for two 4-string electric bass guitars, of Level 42's Hours By The Window, from their True Colours album.
True Colours is the fifth studio album by the English jazz-funk band Level 42, released on 5 October 1984 by Polydor Records. Beyond the band's native United Kingdom, the album was released in 10-plus other countries, including Japan, Germany and the United States of America. The album peaked at #14 in the UK Albums Chart.
The first single released, Hot Water, hit #18 on the UK Singles Chart, #7 in Belgium and #3 in the Netherlands, and has become a staple in Level 42's live sets to the present day. The second single, The Chant Has Begun, released in many countries, peaked at #41 in the UK Singles Chart.
Hot Water was released in the US in 1986 (after being featured in a single version on the US version of band's follow-up studio album World Machine) and entered the Billboard Hot 100, at #87.
Hours By The Window, composed by bassist Mark King with lyrics by drummer Phil Gould, was never released as a single but is a well-loved part of the band's repertoire, notable for its complex chordal bass part.
Performed on a 2020 Bogart Karl Clews Signature 'Broadsword' bass, and a 2003 Status Graphite Kingbass Artist.
Recorded directly into Cakewalk Sonar Platinum, via a Presonus Audiobox. Video edited using TrakAxPC.

This is a great track by level 42, covers of bands is not something I normally like, but this is fantastic, really works.
