I am a HUGE Black Sabbath fan. I'm talking sitting alone in my room at 16 years old learning to play the guitar parts for their first four albums. This is absolutely, hands down the most accurate, authentic performance of Paranoid I have ever heard in my life. Your attack, your tone, the gain, it sounds like I'm sitting in their studio listening to Geezer's bass track on the master. Well fucking done sir.
The bass is the bone back of music. See: the best band in history, for any style: heavy? Punk? for example... bassmen make the difference Steve Harrys from Maiden, Dee Dee Ramones... even Metallica not was the same sound after lose Burton.
I'm french(excuse me if i make english mistakes hé hé)but i want to say that we always care about lead guitar in rock music,and often we forget the bass,but without the base drum-bass guitar,rock music lacks of depth.
Agreed, I was listening to The Four Horsemen last night and was listening to the bass drum sounding like a horse galloping, at first I thought it was a bass guitar but it sounded to repetitive musically, it didn't sound like something that could change audio pitch so I singled it out to be the bass drum. Then with bass guitar I listened and realized how flat and boring the song would be without bass, the bass adds much more variety and "flavor" to the music, it adds much more feel and in a way it kind of rings out in music a tiny bit longer than the guitar
@@blunttime1089 if this thing is frustrating when you play, then it's perfect exercise for fingers and your brain tempo. Don't let yourself down, keep practice going on.
@@blunttime1089 Take it slow at first and then work it up to tempo. You can do it, its just some work to get it right is all. Everything Geezer ever played is achievable and he'll teach you a lot about rock and metal bass.
@@idfk9578 Primus is Les Claypool and friends, it's like saying "I like funk cause I can hear bass there" when funk is basically driven by bass Also I love how he said that he doesn't like playing a 5 string cause he has to think when playing... yeah man sings and plays maddest bass riffs and doesn't even think about it ... He is a legend
Thank you for the upload. I always wanted to learn a Black Sabbeth song after buying the greatest hits CD about 8 years ago. I was just blown away by their music and how each instrument compliments eachother
I've been playing guitar for 16 years and started to play bass recently and I still can't get through this song, crying about half way through... Man you need some chops for this stuff!
Nicely done on one of my favorites. It proves greatness can be simple. The bass line for this song was so perfect. I will never tire of it. One of my favorite lyrics of all times, "Make joke and I will sigh and you will laugh and I will cry."
I recommend you learn their song “Electric Funeral” first. It really improved my pinky and ring finger dexterity and it’s fun and not too hard (I’ve been playing for about 4 months)
Don’t take short cuts. Just slow it down and gradually build up speed. Short cuts just mean you’re putting it off but will have to learn it some other time and/or you will never learn it. And it will sound weird to anyone who cares. (I’m referring to the recommendation to hammer on)
I more or less have all the parts down apart from the first bridge part where you hit the octaves, its kicking my backside at the moment because I am tripping over my fingers!
Dear Great Master of Bass, Thanks to You! You play the Bass with panache! Thank you againg for remember me the BS concert in 1975 in Paris La Vilette area (FRANCE with AC/DC in fisrt part!) for Black Sabbath it was so perfect: an old beef slaugtherhouse...
Awesome tone and awesome playing. My only criticism -- and it isn't really a criticism considering your version sounded really good -- is on the transition from E to D. Geezer plays the A-B-D-E transition down an octave so E5-E7-A5-A7 rather than D7-D9-G7-G9. However, like I said it sounds pretty awesome so I'm going to start incorporating both while performing this song. Should keep things interesting during what is otherwise a somewhat monotonous bass line.
Hrmano no podi ser tan bkn wn, desde hacer cover y tab de Los Prisioneros hasta de Black Sabbath Oh te pasaste en serio, te mereces el millon o hasta mas :DD
#CoverSolutions dude you are helping me learn bass i don't have anyone to teach me so i'm watching this video and playing along with it had to slow it down thank you so much @CoverSolutions
Hey, would you mind doing a guitar cover for this song? I've never been able to figure out the solo very well and your videos help me a lot with guitar and bass. Do it or don't, keep up the good work man!
I remember starting out with this song when i was like 12 i just got my 1st electric bass i was a huge geezer fan but I only had an upright so couldn’t really play Sabbath. Now i can play it basically in my sleep
Old guy now, remember as a teen with my Fender Musicmaster bass trying to figure out this and many other songs without anything like RUclips. Would have made the job a lot easier.

Finally a teenager who likes Black Sabbath :',') It's impossible for me to find people like you in my city :')
I love black sabbath
@@hdioznwlxbaxklmxklm6590 I have 12 years old and I hear sabbath and thrash metal haha
I’m also a Sabbath fan, also 16. Only difference is I’m a lefty bassist
I'm 17 and I have played bass for a year and a half. I love Black Sabbath bass tracks and my favorite is either war pigs or children of the grave!
I love how clear the bass actually is in this song as well. You can hear it really clearly
“Lars Ulrich intensifies”
thats with a lot of sabbath songs, especially lord of this world and into the void
The bass is practically the rhythm guitar in black sabbath
@@theturtlerguy1236 no it's lead.
Geezer Butler : good bassist and genius writer
yes
Never imagine that the bass could be such a beauty instrument
Mundo oscuro de Alejandro A good bass player is an integral part of any band
it is:))

so you were a idiot, but don't worry, now you're okay :)

Ouais, vive la basse!
This song kills my hand, the endurance you need to just constantly be playing those eighth notes with basically no break for 3 mins
stay away from muse-hysteria for sure then haha
@@SirEpsilonn funny you say that I just learned the main intro riff last week
don't learn The Trooper dude
wow this song looks more fun to play in a bass haha
Nestor Geezer has awesome bass riffs that's all I used to do when I started playing bass was Sabbath tunes
Yup it is extremely fun!
Can be extremely frustrating learning as a medium beginner

This was the first song I ever learned to play on bass. Great cover, well done.
Damn. I have been playing for 3 years and still have trouble with the octave eight notes at speed.
War Pigs - Black Sabbath... PLEASE!!!
dforero4 Definitely!
Done
Yes, do war pigs bass cover.
Black Sabbath and Motorhead, two of the only bands you can hear the bass more than the guitar itself.
Um sir what about Primus
Nice pic

Iron Maiden also
Joy Division / New Order (Peter Hook)

You are doing a great job in contributing to the music and future musicians who thanks to you learn more and more fun. Sincerely many thanks
I’m a bass player and I think your cover is excellent! I wish you could hear the bass in the original song as much as you do in this video
I'm a guitar player, but I always thot Geezer was a fantastic bass player... his riffs were always tight...he's def under rated
Me gustan tus videos por que he aprendido mucho de ellos, gracias y buen trabajo. Saludos desde Mexico.
Yes! A Black Sabbath bass cover done so beautifully!!!!! Thank you Mr. CoverSolutions ^_^
Stared at the tab for so long the 7's turned into eighth rests.
This is an underrated gem
Well that would be the case of it was mixed by Lars ulrich
i'm a simple man
i see black sabbath, i press like
TheStell231
are you a simple man by Shinedown or by Lynard Skinard?
(;
Eli Butterfield *Lynyrd Skynyrd
fuck u
this band is so boring
Fairies wear boots, man, you've got to believe me.
I saw it, I saw it, with my own two eyes.
this bassline kicks ass and is fun to play aswell
I've been playing guitar for 16 years and started to play bass recently and I still can't get through this song, crying about half way through... Man you need some chops for this stuff!
i thought i had this song down until i played the whole thing through. my hand is going to explode from trying to keep up
If you make scales that will not happen to you
This is as easy as playing Guitar Hero! Thanks a lot man.
Nicely done on one of my favorites. It proves greatness can be simple. The bass line for this song was so perfect. I will never tire of it. One of my favorite lyrics of all times, "Make joke and I will sigh and you will laugh and I will cry."
Incredible, I thought I heard Geezer on bass, same sound and same attack. Thank you with a big like
Awesome playing man, my daughter is learning from your work for the current biggest show in London right now.
Thanks! I'm glad to know that
+CoverSolutions she is only 11 and made the final casting audition, will keep you posted. Cheers.
what show
@@mickbrophy484 is it Rock school?
Nice to see you nailed the tone and plucking close to the neck
The Basst One I've ever listened to, Sir!
Carajo 🔥🔥🔥
Bomba escucharla con audífonos 🎧
Se escucha de maravilla me encantó como se escucha
Increíble
This is now my favorite song to play on bass!
I can't do the 7 9 7 9 😢
Pos que tarugo
I recommend you learn their song “Electric Funeral” first. It really improved my pinky and ring finger dexterity and it’s fun and not too hard (I’ve been playing for about 4 months)
Firstly you need to practice with the scales
Im having trouble with that too! Maybe hammer on the 9's will help?
Don’t take short cuts. Just slow it down and gradually build up speed.
Short cuts just mean you’re putting it off but will have to learn it some other time and/or you will never learn it.
And it will sound weird to anyone who cares. (I’m referring to the recommendation to hammer on)
Geezer is a Bass God!
I more or less have all the parts down apart from the first bridge part where you hit the octaves, its kicking my backside at the moment because I am tripping over my fingers!
If I can't find something I watch you. BEST on youtube.
Great cover and tab mate, excellent bass sound as well, thank you.
I'm learning to play with your videos, thanks a lot from Chile!!!
Soy chileno wn
Jsjahsjs wena perro xd 🤘🏻
jajaja la raja, gracias!!
Wena weon xD yo igual
Please do Motley Crue "Looks that Kill" There are so many bad versions I would love to see your take on it. Thanks
Playing guitar along to this was so much fun
i am learn every day with this ...i love it
Excellent Bass cover! Real nice looking bass as well!
Man this is one of those songs that are so fun to play on bass it’s fast and comes naturally
So i just bought my first bass 3 days ago and i can play decently the first 40 seconds, nice. Wish me luck for the rest guys, have a nice day.
How’s it going
How the hell did u played the 0:38 part. I cant use my pinky finger properly
Late to the party with this video but wow, such a great video! Not still fumbling through .75 speed but getting better each practice run!
Holy hell this is a fun song to play
this is insanely fun to play
can you do a cover of megadeths peace sells
Megadeth rules
Metallica rules
@@tibydoesbass3169 megadeth rules
One of the first songs I tried to learn on guitar that was hard at first and now it's challenging to play on bass too.
I really like that you played closer to the neck to get Butler's tone in the original record. Thumbs up!
Great songs have great bass lines
Muito obrigada por esse vídeo, Bruno.
Adorei! ❤
thanks dude, 2nd time i check your stuff, its very acurate, thanks
Great bass playing I love it
Me enamoré de este canal!!
Dear Great Master of Bass, Thanks to You! You play the Bass with panache! Thank you againg for remember me the BS concert in 1975 in Paris La Vilette area (FRANCE with AC/DC in fisrt part!)
for Black Sabbath it was so perfect: an old beef slaugtherhouse...
so old school and so metal just timeless.
Geezer e iommi, melhor dubla do rock
Love it you make it look so easy glad I found this site.
I would love to see Electric Funeral by Black Sabbath, Dragonaut by Sleep, and/or Esoteric Surgery by Gojira!
Grand! You're fierce... Loved the video. All the best t'ya.
Best riff ever
Dude, i love the singer. Ozzy has ( o had idk) an awesome voice
I've been waiting for this cover for months, AMAZING.
Pris Alegría see my cover of this and say what you think. Thanks Greetings from Portugal
Thanks, this made me happy!!!
Geezer just too damn good 😂 I’m struggling like hell
Doesn't get much better than that. Thanks bud :)
love this song, great cover!
I've got blisters on my fingers!!!
Damn you don't even need an amp, your plucking hand is STRONG
Awesome tone and awesome playing. My only criticism -- and it isn't really a criticism considering your version sounded really good -- is on the transition from E to D. Geezer plays the A-B-D-E transition down an octave so E5-E7-A5-A7 rather than D7-D9-G7-G9. However, like I said it sounds pretty awesome so I'm going to start incorporating both while performing this song. Should keep things interesting during what is otherwise a somewhat monotonous bass line.
this is cool, thanks man
Great playing!!
Hrmano no podi ser tan bkn wn, desde hacer cover y tab de Los Prisioneros hasta de Black Sabbath
