Rock on brother! That was awesome! ❤
Thanks mate. This has been my go-to tutorial for this track. Lovely playing and tone.
i would love this track???? isolated so i can add the drums.
I had to turn it down to .75 speed to get the slapping technique right lololol damn it’s a good bass line
I've loved this song, in particular the bass, drums and the lead, ever since 1978 when I was 16. Thanks for breaking it down, brother!
There’s something just so satisfying & perfect about this bass part but also how perfect & tight it is with the incredible drums as all
Perfect!
Absolutely nailed it. Thanks
The chorus has total Seinfeld vibes! ????
You are playing that peg steely Dan perfect. ????????????????
How do you get that beautiful tone
kudos! a great cover. i've known this song for years but actually only recently noticed how the great the bass line on this song is…
OMFG, dude. What a great rendition of Peg. You are my new hero.
My favorite bassline of all time, and you NAILED IT!!
Such a shame it is mixed so quietly on the album. I have to turn up the bass to enjoy it a little more
Well done sir. Beautifully played. Makes me want to get a bass guitar and learn it myself.
Idk why but listening to bassline just makes me happy. Even when I'm having a bad day i can go to this and it just puts a smile on my face.
The greatest treasure of a jam i swear!
Very nice pocket. Good job!! But don’t ignore those ghost notes in the verse!!
best steely Dan song best bass line best lyrics BEST EVREYTHING ????
great bass to bed track level ratio mate. nice sounding pre bass.
Stop slapping walter said dont slap
Ahh, bro. You just nailed it. You're a beast on the bass.
Back in the the days when the hits had incredible musicianship.
Thanks! I was listening to Aja this week and just couldn't get these bass riffs out of my head.
i was just about to fall asleep when the slap part absolutely SLAPPED me awake
Ok…well now I have my next project. Thank you for putting in such great work getting this charted out and performed so well!
Man! I love you dude.
you play with such clarity! a very professional performance
Kinda song that makes me wish I played bass! Well done.
Love you play bro!!!
Wow dude. Great job. Savage bass lines on that song. You nailed it
OMG. Beautiful
That Slappping sooo goood
Nasty????
Amazing playing- really good!
Very nice!
I don't really slap and learning the slap section fingerstyle has taken ages lol,
this channel is a real treasure!
I spent maybe 30 seconds or so studying your T-shirt, pondering your deep interest in the periodic table before I realized it was all sodium, and then it hit me. Yeah, I'm a little slow on the take. I'd say it's my age (60), but really, I was this way when I wore a younger man's shoes. (I hope he's not gonna want 'em back, I bought new laces and everything!)
Also, I love how the comment at the beginning of this vid says "Keep it up, you're really good". Uh, yeah – you're only a PROFESSIONAL BASS PLAYER, one who most likely majored in music and has been playing some sort of musical instrument since you could hold one up. I would hope you're "really good". Maybe they think our standards are higher here in Canada, you know, like how CSA ratings are tougher than UL?
Finally, you killed Green Earrings. Thank you, Chuck Rainey was and is my hero. Walter Becker, you should have known, man! White boy don't have the FUNK like ol' Chuck…God rest his soul. Becker, not Rainey, he's still going I believe. Anyway, thanks for the channel, I'm here often. Oh and keep it up, you're fairly good ????
Not only is that among the best bass lines ever written in any genre of music, but that is hands-down the best bass cover on YouTube. Absolutely incredible!
Wicked!
Absolutely beautiful
why is this line insane
Good job chef.
FLAWLESS!!! Great job!
I’ve been watching every video on YouTube of people trying to play this, and I think you and Chuck Rainey are the only two people in the world who can play that slap chorus/outro. Props.????
Best rendition I’ve heard so far.
That has to be my favorite Steely Dan Bass lines, it has more than a lot of people realize, it's funky sophisticated.
Nice bass cover Man!
