Your Wildest dreams - The Moody Blues - Bass Cover - Request

Hello :)
This is the requested transcription I did of The Moody Blues song "Your Wildest Dreams" from their 1986 album "The Other Side of Life". The bass player for the Moody Blues is John Lodge, but I'm sure this is a synth bass part, so I'm not sure if he played it or not?. This transcription can be found at www.muzento.com under Intermediate - Songs.
I couldn't decide if the rhythm in the verse was a half note or two quarters with the last note being short. As you can see in the transcription, I went with two quarter notes. It adds energy and really helps give that feel for the Carlton Banks dance :) With the two quarter notes, I then had to try to to not play the short note as an accented note. I tried to keep it the same volume and intensity as the note before, just shorter.
I could imagine this being a good song to play in a live band. I tried to match the note duration of what I was hearing from the synth on this video, but In a live situation I wouldn't worry too much about it.
This is fun to play along with, I hope you enjoy it too :)

Hi Greg,
The Moody Blues is one of my favorite groups. This bass is so written for this song - very melodic . Thanks for preparing a fantastic lesson and transcription.
Thanks Frank

[@BassCovers]

Hey Frank, you're right. This is a perfectly constructed bass line for this song. I hope you enjoy it...thanks!

[@BeckyBassandDrums]

This is a beautiful song! 💗Would you consider doing a lesson for" o-o-h Child"by The Five Stairsteps ? My Grandparents listen to 60 and 70"s soul all the time ; this is how I got interested in this style of music.

[@BassCovers]

I'll have a listen :) Thanks!

[@michellesmith1719]

I literally gasped when I saw this! Thank you!

[@BassCovers]

Thanks so much for posting this! It makes a great companion to "The Voice" cover you did a while back.

[@BassCovers]

Hey Kim, thanks very much!

Would it be possible to transcribe The Bangles song “If She Knew What She Wants” please please PLEASE? I’ve been trying for many years since I was a teen to get this song in the Ritchie’s. I cannot find a good tab online or no one to play it. I’d appreciate it. 😊

[@BassCovers]

I'll check it out...thanks!

[@ionlytalkaboutbass]

Fantastic song! Great playing. I'd love to see the tabs for "Story in Your Eyes" by them with someone actually playing it along with the tabs. I find the timing of that song incredibly challenging to master.

[@BassCovers]

I'll check it out...thanks!

[@sparklewoman3733]

Not only is this my favorite Moodies song, I have always been intrigued by the bass line and strain to hear the whole thing. There are parts I’ve never figured out, but you’ve filled in the gaps for me. I don’t play, I just listen, but for me it’s definitely all about that bass. Thanks, and please do more of their songs!

[@BassCovers]

Thank you very much. Please feel free to pass on some suggestions :)

[@JohnDoe-ny1wp]

One of the greatest bass songs ever. I am NOT a musician due to a handicap BUT I have a great ear and you sir did an outstanding job. Cheers and subscribed.

[@BassCovers]

Wow...thank you very much :)

[@Bamainjc]

Excellent ! Always wondered how much was bass or keyboard. Thanks again for all you do

[@BassCovers]

Hey Gary, it was my pleasure. I think it's all keyboard...but I can't say for sure ;)

[@jasoncarpp7742]

Awesome music! Awesome bass playing! Do you have any more music by the Moody Blues? 🙂

[@BassCovers]

Hey Jason...thanks! Here's another Moody Blues song I did a while ago - ua-cam.com/video/Lp_BcocAlMY/v-deo.html

[@christinamichelle8790]

Great I love your bass covers/ tutorials thank you!
Had a request (I’m sure you have a million but just thought I’d ask)-- “Straight On” by heart -- specifically the version from “The Road Home” album If you could one day get around to it , I’d be super grateful. If not, I’m still gonna thoroughly enjoy your covers! Thanks for everything you do!

[@BassCovers]

Hi Christiana, thanks very much. I'm sure I've heard that song before, but I'll check it out a little closer. Thank you :)(
