I had to learn this from scratch in just a few days, and I NEVER would have done it without this video, thanks very much!
Amazing work
Thank you
Great job!
Picking-fingering transition is amazing.
wow!!!!
Keeping that groove after changes is so difficult! Great tabs Greg!
Its all fun and games until 1:04
Excellent! (Thought i'd already put that).
Muito bom ????
Muy bueno!!
Damm man thanks thats awesome !
impecable man!
This is what a bass line in a song should sound like ????
This is so fast lol , I only started playing 17 months ago and I love the song and thought wow ; this one is going to be a real challenge and yes indeed it's a real one !
That you put almost 5 hours into working this out so that we can benefit is a testament to your dedication to your craft and to the musical community, Greg. Thank you.
So Great !
Great video. I've only ever played this on guitar and never knew the bass line in the chorus was so complex. A lot of major pentatonic "Motown" lines there. Very under-stated in the song. Another song with an insanely underrated bass line is Wake Me Up Before You GoGo (Deon Estus). Thanks for the lesson Greg
Man you sound great , that's no easy stuff to cover! Great job
I just have to say thanks for this. I've been working through Footloose for months now and I've got it to the point where I can play it (more or less) as intended. I would never even have been able to attempt this without the video breakdown and especially the slower tempo run throughs of the latter sections.
Just amazing. Thank you so much.

Oh FFS, I had to learn this song for a pit band in high school. It’s been my show off/warm up song ever since. Just wanted to find an isolated bass track only to be crushed to find out we must have transposed it to G for the singer and now I have to re learn the whole effin song.
Hey there buddy, I've gotten a lot of use from this video of yours. This is great. Unfortunately I wish i didn't have to use this but this song is a killer. Very accurate, and the slower clip at the end really helps slow guys like me. Cheers!????
What a bass line, I love every thing about it!! ✌️☺️
KIller stuff Greg as usual appreciate if bro!
Im going Bananas trying to follow the notation ????????????????????????
CHRIST this is fun!
Like it's amazing how people can listen but still not hear.
I was a child I the 80s..so I was very much alive and aware when Footloose came out and was popular….
..But I swear it's only in the last year that I really listened to the song and heard how dynamic the bassline was and how thr bass player went off in the chorus.
And the realization led me to this video…thanks so much for doing justice to this under heralded Master class of bass playing.
Pretty darn good! Congrats
What does the x mean?
Nathan East wrote that? Makes sense what a beast
Def a tough one. Tried the chorus for the first time this afternoon. Albeit I played it SLOOOOWLY, I got it. I just now need to speed it up. Thanks for the cover!!!
This is soooo good!!!
Wow ????????
I have been playing piano and keyboards for almost 40 years. Your bass line blows me away. So glad I found you!!!
Thanks for posting this. Very fun bass line to play.
Man this one is tough as hell to play without messing up. Great vid and tabs, helping out a lot!
