Bassist: Kelly Groucutt
Year: 1979
Album: Discovery
Playstyle: pick | All vids show picks
So, this song isn't too hard to play, but I do really enjoy it. It's another one of those I've heard a lot on the radio here in Houston, and so covering it brings me another step closer to being able to just play along to the radio (one of my several dreams that I have with the bass). Recording it wasn't so easy. I had tons of issues. First off, I start to record it, and then I get a good take, only to find out that the recording didn't even start. Then, I did a few more, got one I liked, only to find out that the song recorded and the bass didn't! So then I did a few more, and recorded it, but I realized my E string had gone slightly out of tune, so I retuned and did a few more takes, only to realize as I was putting it together I had a couple mistakes in my tab. I fix those and then finally get the performance that you see in front of you. Lots of silly little things that usually aren't an issue, but sometimes you just have one of those days.
I had a hard time finding any shows that show Kelly. The music video shows 3,5,7, but the third video linked below shows an open A for 3-0-2. Because of the difficulty level of the song, I'm taking the liberty to use the open A string in my tab throughout the song
The gallop pattern is where I've tabbed it. If you listen to the the song, you don't hear the octave lower that everyone likes to do (but feel free to do it)
• Electric Light Orchest...
0:42 - not open string
• ELO - Don't Bring Me D...
throughout seems to show not an open string
2:27 - downstrokes, and 5 on E. This is not Groucutt though
• JEFF LYNNE'S & ELECTR...
1:09 - 5 slide 7
3:13 - closed, not open A?
• "Don't Bring Me Down" ...
0:25 - shows open. Hand is in position for closed right before like previous vid.
2:23 - "don't bring me down" section as a slide
Thanks for watching! Enjoy :)

This is actually one of my favourite ELO songs, great instrumentation!! ✌️😁
2:08 LEGEND
One of the best songs of the late 70's. I was a boy when it came out and now I can try to play it. What an emotion. Great Samboat, thank you😉😃❤️
My pleasure! I’m glad I can help you play this song from your childhood :)
@@SamboatMusicBassCovers thank you Samboat. Good morning 👍👍
👍👍😘
This has always been one of my favorites. Incredible work !
Thank you so much! I hope you enjoy playing it :)
I haven't listened to ELO much before but I really like their style. Thanks for the tabs!
Of course! I really like a couple of their songs, but haven’t listened to too much more of their stuff
I had to watch a second time because the first time there wasn’t any video and based on your description I thought it was real and one of your jokes but I had to double check… I’m glad I did. Don’t know what happened on my end. Fun song. Thanks
That’s really weird! I’m glad it got sorted out so you could watch it though :)
Great cover, I’m glad to see classics performed nowadays. 👍👍👍👍👍
I must say I prefer the classics myself, but that doesn’t mean I haven’t found newer songs I like as well
Oh yeah oh yeah~🎵🎵👍👍🤘🤘
A good choice to lighten up your Monday steps!! It's likely to keep ringing in my ears as much as "Beds are burning". Shoulder dance is a bonus! 🕺🕺And I'm applauding your ability to just listen and follow. 💯💯💯👏👏👏
Thank you thank you! You might be excited to know there’s another ELO song coming your way real soon too :)
Not telling you, but It’s been in a Marvel movie 😉🍿
I was surprised that at least 4 songs were familiar😍 Please cover more of their songs!!
I will :)
As always thank you so much Sam,I’m having a blast working on this and it’s a very fun song,hope you’re doing well, see ya✌🏻
I am Dave! I’m glad you enjoyed it :)
Well done young man. Keep spreading the musical joy.
SAM BACK IN 1986 I SAW ELO IN CONCERT AND IT WAS GREAT
That’s awesome! I wish I could’ve seen them in their prime

Merci pour toutes les TABS
Just listened to ELO, Last Train To London to be exact. Great cover 🤙
Thank you! ELO has some great tunes :)
@@SamboatMusicBassCovers Indeed, Just finished an ELO-Athon 🤙.
Nice! What was in the set?
@@SamboatMusicBassCovers Over 125 songs on my list. I was painting the house 👍
Sounds like it was almost all their songs then! Hopefully the paint came out well
Great job as always and a great old song 🤘🤘
🤘🤘 Thanks Shaul!
Still got this one on vinyl. 😊
Steady like a metronome! 👌
🤘 How often do you put it on the turntable?
@@SamboatMusicBassCovers Seldom, as I have a CD copy too.
That’s how it goes nowadays
@@SamboatMusicBassCovers Yup! In the car I use an USB stick with thousands of songs on it.
When still in my teens, friends and I recorded songs from the radio to cassette tape and we were happy. 😊
I bet when the DJ started talking over the intro/outro of the songs you weren’t a happy camper
What a beautiful smile 😁
😁
Well done 👍🏻 a excellent channel. You look like you enjoyed that one great cover 👏🏻👏🏻
Thank you! I did enjoy myself with it :)
Thanks Sam. Do you fancy having a look at The Hollies : Long tall woman it’s from mid 1960’s.
So awesome 👏 a great song choice
Fantastic 👍👌
Thank you!
Love it!! Thanks
My pleasure!
Fabuloso, muy buen trabajo y buena interpretación.
Super j'apprends vite, ta metode est bonne
Awesome as usual ans and prety nice smile !!! do you think you could do "Shake your groove thing" from Peaches and herb one day ? thank yoooou :D
I’ll add it to my list for you! 😁 I’m glad you enjoyed it!
Love it! Great job. As an aspiring bassist, how do you record your sound and overlay the track? What program do you use for the mixing of that? Forgive me if there is a video already of you explaining! +
I have a link in the description to the software that I use to do the tabs with the songs (tab player), but I use an “audio interface” and then record with OBS studio, and edit the video in adobe premiere pro
Great video wish I could move my fingers as fast as you lol
It’s taken a lot of practice
@@SamboatMusicBassCovers I’m only now starting to learn lol at 51 it’s a slow process
Hey, slow and steady wins the race! 🐢
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
😁😁😁
Am I mistaken or is this a new camera
It is a new camera! I’ve upgraded to one that I think looks much better :)
Interesting way of playing this song with the open A, I’ve always played it using the A on the E string. You kids and your fancy way of thinking lol
XD both get the job done
Firsty 😀
😁 Nice! Got to it even before I did xD
