    I never get over just how funny it is to see him just rip out a crazy riff like that, just stop and with a straight face just say "okay" as if it was just the easiest thing ever - dont know why but it cracks me up

    I have been frustrated at not getting the pops with the 2 fingers. Finally you explaining moving sideways made all the difference. Thanks!

    Got my bass (Sire M2) four string 10 days ago, Subscribed to your channel, Marcus Miller is my Idol and Run for Cover is 1 of my favorites, Told myself, even if it takes me a year to learn it I will, This lesson made it CRYSTAL clear how to learn it. Might still take me a year but you are spot on, Awesome teacher!

    there is absolutely nobody that's a more efficient teacher! I'm a working musician and have been a member of local 47 for 21yrs. And if I need to learn the something is actually played as opposed to written I come right over to Talking Bass. I have stated I would love to make a donation to contribute to your generosity and time? I appreciate your help to bassist of all levels

    What I like is that he gives the lesson without all the stupid and silliness that MANY of the other so called teachers include. This guy is to the point. Very good for those of us who are ADULTS and don't need silly. Thank you Brother!!!!

    @BassManBobBassCovers 7 лет назад +2

    After learning Marcus's songs it funny to see how he changes the riff each time the phrase repeats lol and then he repeats the pattern.. Genius!

  • @kevinlynch2248
    @kevinlynch2248 7 лет назад +4

    Another great lesson Mark! Marcus Miller has had a huge influence on my bass playing since the late '80's, so thanks for this lesson!
    I've been playing bass for over 25 years and I too had problems getting that, what I call, a muted hammer/pop triplet down correctly. I love using it now that I know how to do so correctly!

    @setantaize 8 лет назад +1

    Man, u are a brilliant teacher, I tried loads of other tutorials, but you seem to play with a more natural approach, I've actually got the whole thing, but that appregio mute roll thing is holding me back. It's a real difficult skill, but to hear you had problems with it also encouraged me. I'm still determined to get it. Thanks for helping us guys out, I have subscribed and to say I'm looking forward to more tasks doesn't sound right, but man, thanks. It's like a driving test, I'm dreading it but know the benefits are worth it if I put the time in.

    • @talkingbasslessons
      @talkingbasslessons  8 лет назад +3

      +Redbranch Thanks a lot. That flamenco roll thing was a MAJOR pain in the ass for me for years and years (probably 1991 through to some time in the 2000's) but you just need to work on it.
