[Mortacciis]

Well played!

[ato71]

@Mortacciis, grazie!

[dawkeye1]

Wow what a great cover. The most laid back guy on youtube playing one of my favourite bass riffs effortlessly. Great talent, many thanks!

[ato71]

@dawkeye1, thanks for your kind apreciation

[vassenger]

Outstanding work! Greetings from Chile.

[thunderthumbs123]

sorry but this dude looks like robert downey jr on the bass,,

[tornmask1]

magnificent basslines "ato71" i really enjoy watching ur bass fingering technics & i'm also in awe that u use ur pinky finger cause lots of bassplayers don't, cheers! x0]

[ato71]

@tornmask1, thanx but I actually don't think I'm a master with fingering technics...

[tornmask1]

@ato71 : ur a humble musician, cheers! x0]

[GloucesterFisherman]

Nice job. It's great to see you and others showing JT's early playing for what it was, intricate and brilliant.

[AR13S69]

Effortless and beautifully played!

BTW... You look like Iron Man/Tony Stark/Robert Downey, Jr..

Very handsome! ;)

[ato71]

@AR13S69 Thx!

P.S. Very handsome? Guess you're talking about Tony Stark...

[abshmusic]

You looks like John Stark, the Iron Man. Nice cover btw.

[bonezzzz]

Robert Downey Jr. is that you?

[BrianNYMusicMaker]

One of the closest sounding covers here on the tube, very nice...

[305Nat]

i didnt know iron man could play bass 

[satchelpooch01]

Effortless cover. Do you learn from audio only for your covers? And thanks for going to the trouble of filming, burning to cd, and then converting to mpeg before uploading - true grit!

[ato71]

@satchelpooch0, haha, that process is the only way I came up with in order to record and upload my videos...

[auxmike]

Speechless......

[er0d1975]

oye... tu tienes muchos bajos! ...no tendras uno que no quieras? :D

[ato71]

@er0d1975, tienes razon! De veras queria vender algunos!

Por ejemplo ayer vendí el bajo en este vídeo ;)

[fireandice3732]

WOW!!!

[ibernalq]

excelent.. good job!!!

[mitsurunyama]

MUSIC MAN Bass Guiter・・・・・・Beeeeeeeeeautiful. envy it.

[fishfan67]

Great playing man. I have a 1989 Stingday. it has a maple neck like yours but for some reason my neck warps at least once a year i have to turn the trusrod. to staighten the neck. never happens to my fenders, G&l or Rickenbacker basses, just my musicman stingray. did you ever have that issue with your Stingray?

[auggdogrules]

great playing dude,you are one of the best covering songs i've seen on youtube,thanks

[anderjor]

Great job man.congratulations.

[3twenty]

awesome! Great Job



[3twenty]

awesome! Great Job

[afxmnstr]

Robert Downy Jr. Is the best bass player ever.

[shortandstylish]

Bloody brilliant!

[intormentis]

You are fantastic; and your Give Blood bass line is also top-notch work. You are my favorite youtube bassist.

[pawnsacrifice1]

Man you make that look easy

[dexterferrell]

good job i warm up with this bass line John Taylor was actually taught this bass line by the late Bernard Edwards

[xmarveraz]

Pretty Cool! Good Job!

[gvickerschtick]

Hey! Great playing! Is your stringray stock(pickups and preamp)? I've never heard a stock one sound so fat and round.

[ato71]

@gvickerschtick: thanks bro'. Yep, the bass is 100% stock (I only got the body refinished in sunburst and the neck in amber lacquered like the old Pre Ernie)

[TripleTransAm]

Truly truly impressive... 

[TripleTransAm]

Truly truly impressive...

[danielinsporto]

didnt know robert downey jr. played bass :p

you're amazing by the way.

[renzoxeneize]

it's tony stark on the bass!! 

[skibo0]

Excellent !!!!

[mirzamarco]

Lodevole come sempre. Hai mai provato a rifare qualcosa dei Japan? Le linee di fretless di Mick Karn sono molto particolari, anche se spesso sono tanto ripetitive da sembrare quasi looppate.

Visto come suoni Palladino, potrebbe essere qualcosa di interessante per te. Idem Mo Foster con Howard Jones (tipo "Like to get to know you well") o Mark Egan negli Arcadia (prova "The Promise" ad esempio). Un abbraccio!

[Destortionable]

man You are so so professorial :-) i liked all what you did ;-)

[RudyZombe]

Very nice!. It would be great if you try to play the solo bass of Cage of freedom by Jon Anderson (Metropolis soundtrack, Georgio Moroder , 1984).

[ato71]

Ooops, I don't know that.... I'll look for it!

[boongg]

John Taylor is no slouch when it comes to bass. You're a great bass player! I have a P, a J & a Warwick Thumb and hope to get a Stingray. Nothing sounds like a Stingray.

[neonjunglejumper]

@boongg hey man how are you, i have nearly the same basses as u bizarre, i have a stingray, a jazz & a warwick infinity, i dont use the "ray" much these days i like the hearty sound of the jazz & its what i record & play live with, & yeh JT is an underrated bassist.

[pmsbassplayer]

I'm still in love with your bass!

[gifu1960]

Man you're fantastic. I would also like to hear you do the View to a Kill bass line.

[mginsel]

I have been a huge fan and once again you nail the utter hell of out of this.

[migibanez87]

i've seen many guys playing Rio on bass on YouTube, but you're the only one 100% correct, by far. nice touch also. congrats

[ato71]

Thanks mate: I try to do my best!

[wurlytone]

Wow..what camcorder are you using? The video quality is great for not being HD. Great playing & sweet bass too! You make this complex bass line look easy

[ato71]

Its a long process: I use a Sony Camera with mini DV cassette. Then I make a DVD of the videos and after that I convert into MPEG.

Thanks for the apreciation!

[pmsbassplayer]

Ive been using this to learn this song. Also I mentioned on your other video that I love your bass!

Thanks,

PMS

[ato71]

Thanks for the apreciation and support: happy to be of some help!

[cashkidd44]
