- Hello :)
This is the requested transcription I've done of the Aretha Franklin song "Oh Me Oh My (I'm a Fool For You Baby" from her 1972 album "Young, Gifted, and Black". Eric Gale was the bass player on this track.
You can find this transcription at Muzento when you sign up with an Advanced Lesson Plan.
This is a beautiful song and was a real pleasure to learn and transcribe. Aretha sounds fantastic on this track. I'm not that familiar with the album, but I think I need to check it out :)
I know Eric Gale from his guitar playing. I didn't know he was such a tasty bass player too!
This has a great feel to it. The slow tempo makes it difficult. I had to really subdivide to match up to what he was playing. I have a feeling there was a conductor when this was recorded.
This one will challenge your patience, your ability to count and subdivide!
I hope you enjoy it as much as I did :)
Don't forget to like and subscribe and thanks for watching.

Hi, would you mind putting your settings to get the tone for each song in the description or somewhere in the video? It would be really helpful to know which pickups to use, how much gain, how much tone, any eq, etc.
One of my all time favorite bass lines.
It's a great line...thanks for the comment!
Nice bass line Sounds great Greg 👏👏
Thanks a lot...cheers!
Please , "Baby let me take you home" The Animals bassline
I'll check it out...thanks!
Great stuff Greg, I like your taste in music and basslines, beyond the outstanding tabs and playing!!
Thank you very much. That's really appreciated...thank you :)
@@BassCovers I'm coming up on 30 years playing bass and I always find new inspiration through your stuff!
Every bass part on this album is a 10. Definitely should do more!
Hey Nathan, good to hear from you. It's been a while ;) I just bought the album a couple days ago. I can imagine there will be more from this album...thanks :)
Hey Greg,
Aretha and Motown was and is the best. Great song. Timing looks tough. Great lesson
Thanks for doing it
Frank
Hey Frank, it was my pleasure. The timing isn't too bad. Counting and subdividing is the key. You can do it :)
Greatest female singer ever !! Another great bass cover. I really like the wide array of songs you do.
Thank you very much. I love her voice too! :)
Sir, I would like to make a request if it's possible. Please, can you make a bass cover of ''Vulmawi - Tawnmang''? It's a Mizo classic rock song. I really like your videos. Greeting from Myanmar..
I'll have a listen...thank you :)
Hey Greg great tune, can you possibly do ''If you really love me " by stevie wonder, its an amazing tune!
I'l check it out...thanks!
hi greg, thanks for this wonderful music, its a great pleasure for me to play this song, thanks from lyon in france
You're welcome :)
So I literally just came across your site for the first time. How on EARTH did I miss you?!? lol
haha...I don't know? But I'm glad you found me now...thanks :)
Amazing timing! I ordered a bass 2 years ago and recently got it. All this time, or almost this was the first song I wanted to learn. You’ll be getting a lot of views until I learn it. Thank you snd Cheers!!!!!
It's a beautiful song with some real tasty bass playing by Eric Gale. Have fun with it...thank you :)
Thank you so much for doing this song! It's fantastic!
It was my pleasure...thank you!
Lulu also did a fantastic version of this. I think her's was first but im not sure.
It's hard to beat Aretha's version.
Nice job, Greg. Eric Gale masterpiece.
Thank you Mark. It's a great line and feel he came up with!
Nice song 😍
Thanks Greg for this cover !
I have a request 🙏, there is a brazilian song very groovy I love so much : Gilberto Gil - Aquele Abraço. I think this is the first live performance where I was starting to fall in love with bass instrument when I was teenager. May be you like it too ? It's not overly complex and I found some covers ( ex : ruclips.net/video/F-lao1VRugY/видео.html ) but without the tabs ... they are some notes I struggle to find.
Hi, thank you for the request. What a fun sounding song :) It made me smile first time hearing it! I'm adding it to my wish list... thanks :)
@@BassCovers Wow thanks so much Greg, This is going to be great with your transcription skills! This bass line is so dancing , balancing, it's all about brazil :D and if you don't know Gilberto Gil was the brazil culture minister some time ago ! so music leads to everything 😎
Sabes cuando encuentras un buen canal, estoy contento de esta recomendación.
Thank you very much :)
That's a great song. Thank you Greg for once again introducing me to a great song I had never heard.
My pleasure. That's one of the nice perks I get from doing this...learning new songs. Thanks :)

There were some good tunes from the 70's for sure! Thanks Mark ;)
