Well hell... so much more to this bass line than I ever knew. And Ronnie said Ed was the worst bass player he’d ever played with?? This sounds great to me!
He said that Ed was the "worst" bass player that he's ever played with, I doubt that's true, but Ronnie really had some great bass players at his disposal throughout LS's career.
All us have been told we suck at one time or another. Anyone who says anything different hasnt been playing for very long. Everyone should remember the first time they were told they suck or been booed on stage and how it made you feel. So cheers to all the musicians out there who had the balls to keep going until the days they began to be appreciated. So anyone out there who is saying someone sucks needs to think about what it would like be like if your favorite band had quit the first time someine told them they suck. Most great musicians became great because they have a hard outter shell and had the ballocks to tell the first geezer to say they sucked to piss off.
Try learning this bassline with an old record player from some drugstore it was pure pain. Nowadays kids have it made, I can't count how many times I picked that needle up LOL
+TeamMastaPr2 That may be so, but Leon actually wrote the lines on the album, so you may as well be hearing Leon. Ed King just played them, although he did play them very well! Props to the two of them.
Leon had gone back to work at the ice cream store! Lucky for him he was able to return to the band, otherwise, it would have been another "IF I COULDA WOULDA SHOULDA" rock and roll tales of woe!
It would have to have been from an original track. That's the only way to isolate any instrument or vocal. Listen to Seven Bridges Road (by the Eagles), isolated harmony parts on here.
Not a bad attempt.........but it's NOT the real one. The bass falls of tempo at 8:14 slightly and I have listened really hard to the bass line in the actual song countless times and that mistake isn't in there. If you have a good ear you'll hear it too.......or lack of

Didn’t Leon wilkenson play on this?
I’d guess Ronnie thought Ed got a little too busy on the bass!😂
@@jacobc2653 The album credited Ed King, I always thought it was Leon too. But I read Ed played bass on several of their tracks.
@@as2rleroldlol, this may be true. I just know I will ban play that song nightly and there’s more to that isolated track and I ever knew lol.
@@bpatt6591when Leon plays this line live he doesn’t play this line even close to similar which makes me think it was ed
Every time I think I’m starting to get it, I listen to something like this and nope. Back to the woodshed...
4:43 is the legendary solo
I'd love to be able to hear an isolated bass version of Leons effort on the Live album to compare the two.
And to think that Ronnie told Ed that he couldnt play bass for shit. Wow.
He said that Ed was the "worst" bass player that he's ever played with, I doubt that's true, but Ronnie really had some great bass players at his disposal throughout LS's career.
...And then Ed told Ronnie that his Mama wears combat boots.
Brian Connell i think Ronnie knee Ed was gonna do bigger things on guitar - and just probably busting balls, too.
Ed King played on the studio recording.
But he didn't write the song, just played it.
@@austinstaab1205 but were talking about the bass not who wrote the song.
@@austinstaab1205 Allen and Ronnie wrote the song. Everyone else in the band just played it.
Austin Staab ik
@@austinstaab1205 But to play something like this you need talent
Ed King wasn't a bad bass player, he was damn good

That is bad ass.
That’s some some serious playing.
7:27 My favorite part
Diego Jorquera V Same, came just for this
that is badass for sure and ronnie said he was the worst bass player he ever played with
No he diddnt
This is definately Ed Kings version
Wikipedia says it too (Ed King on bass guitar).
+TeamMastaPr2 That may be so, but Leon actually wrote the lines on the album, so you may as well be hearing Leon. Ed King just played them, although he did play them very well! Props to the two of them.
No he didn't. Ed played his own bass parts on every song except Simple Man.
@@User-jk8wq this sounds nothing like Leon. It's all ED. Definitely.
It’s literally the same bass track from the actual song
Pretty damned good.
Thank you so much for sharing this !
You can tell a polished guitarist is playing bass here. Listen to the debut by Boston and you’ll hear it there too...
8:15 Kreygasm
la tranquilidad que da esto😁
respect for Mr. Leon Wilkeson!
Leon had gone back to work at the ice cream store! Lucky for him he was able to return to the band, otherwise, it would have been another "IF I COULDA WOULDA SHOULDA" rock and roll tales of woe!
EDDIE
Awesome
____________That was sweet!
beautiful
cool
Funny tempo.
?
This sounds like it is beeing played with a pick? Was a pick used on the original?
yes, both Ed and Leon were a pick players.
Oh man !
I've got so much to learn !
That's awesome !
Now I wanna learn it even more.
Yes, is that Leon or Ed ?
This is Ed 👍
Did he use a pick or something?
Weird tempo, but still a sick bass line
Clearly uncultured bud.
Nehrál Ed náhodou na studiové verzi i kytarové sólo? 🤔
What bass was used on this?
Jazz bass. You hear that back pickup snarl distinctly on the album.
@@aridagan8205right, I posted this 3 years ago before I was invested in bass guitar. Now I own a jazz and confirm it is indeed a jazz haha
What software did you use for isolating the bass?
MOGG files.
Indrek92 that's not possible to do
It would have to have been from an original track. That's the only way to isolate any instrument or vocal. Listen to Seven Bridges Road (by the Eagles), isolated harmony parts on here.
hazystudios Or guitar hero
@@hazystudios Very cool to be reading about the wonderful Ed King and see a reference to Seven Bridges Road. A very special song.
Ed or Leon?
Is there any tab for this? I wonder..
:D
Yes
Learn with your ear
U should have shown ur self n The vid playing It
it's the actual bass from the track, not a cover
smokewitchills I love when a reply has 9 times more likes then the comment

Nope, this is the real take from the master stems.
