Hey Constantine, Teffy here. that a great expert on the e-bass like you, dedicates such a comment to me is a great source of pride. Thank you very much !
I really liked iy and any differences you may have incorporated compared to the way I play it I would probably try to play it your way. At least I am pretty close!
My favorite Black Sabbath album and one of the most powerful Sabbath bass lines. Ronnie James Dio inspired the musicians he played with. Toni Iommi's best guitar work was without a doubt HaH and MR. Good job, that's a very demanding tempo and difficult song to play.
Nice job. After about 35 years of mental processing, I think it's obvious that the Sabbath/Dio/Appice era was easily on par with the previous incarnation of Sabbath. A lot of people who flicked RJD their middle fingers when he first took the stage after Ozzy left, are probably re-evaluating their attitudes. As a bassist, where would you personally rank Geezer among the top rock bassists? I'll ask the same question regarding the next bass player Dio worked with, Jimmy Bain? Thanks.
you're right, man ! you see and heard a complete different RJD from his Rainbow's era, I mean he is not "accepting orders" (from Ritchie Blackmore) anymore: he is himself ! I heard the record for the very first time when I was 15, back in 1981, and I can tell you: that fucking Album "Heaven and Hell" was for me one of the most interesting Heavy Metal Albums ever... even today !! :) :) Jimmy Bain, Bob Daisley, Geezer Butler, Glen Hughes... great bass players, great bass players... amazing bass lines, amazing back vocals... I think Jimmy Bain was for me one of the best... RIP
BANDHUB AWESOME THINGS & others My 1st ever concert was the Mob Rules tour in late 1981. I was 14. I owned the Mob Rules album on vinyl and i bought it on cassette in the mid 80s for car use. But to be honest, I wasn't all that crazy for the M.R. album at that time. Its hard to describe my opinion of its vibe, other than maybe 'grim', and maybe a bit depressing(??). So over the years the cassette was broken and the album lost. I last listened to it in maybe 1989-ish. Then about 2 months ago I decided to listen to some of the songs from M.R.. I pulled them up on youtube, and connected it through my car audio using a wireless adapter. At first I thought of those songs with the same old 'lack of interest', but after listening to them closer(and louder), I finally started to 'get it'. Most of the songs on Mob Rules are actually very good. Well written, well performed etc. The only downside, is that the overall recording quality isn't quite as good as it is on Heaven & Hell. That album could've been recorded last month, it sounds so clear! But M.R. was somehow recorded 'differently', which makes a few of the songs sound a little "murky". Not too bad, just not fantastic. So, I think both of those albums are equal or better than their earlier albums.
Hi Janet... after a while, I don't usually check the videos I post , so I don't find out what's going on with them, ha! Ha! WOW, in that video I look super young! HA!
Hi, To get a great sound you have to have some skills because you have to mix several bass tracks with each other and then with the original track. 1. I use a Focusrite ISA Two interface with a very good line preamp from which I extract my main signal. 2. The main signal is sent through my Radial DI-Box -simultaneously- to a real bass amp (where you can saturate the output by increasing the volume very considerably) and to a guitar amp (where you'll get a lot of high frequencies that will help you in the further sculpting of the sound), and both signals will be taken again with two good mics. This procedure is called re-amping. 3. The main signal will be doubled again to apply some distortion. 4. The backing track must be modified in the sound. I just have to filter the bass spectrum a bit, but not too much because then the original track would be affected and lose quality and this is not so good. In short, it's laborious but not impossible to do… it’s funny and exciting !

One of my fave of the Dio-era Sabbath. The bass line drives this song, making it one of the most fun Sabbath riffs ever, imo. Great cover!
Thanks a lot!

Nice cover, thanks man!
Dam good job thank you
Perfect!
You're good.
You kind of remind me of Saxon's original bassist, Steve Dawson, back in the day.
How do you get that sound?
