I don't think I've tried to play this since maybe the early 90s ;) - you and Daniel Earwicker have inspired me to revisit it - very nicely done - and good tone too.
fuckin' brilliant. you've got the tone correct and everything...99% perfect man. im getting a tat in a few days with some lyrics from this song...the "famous" part.
Pretty impressive.
It's a cracking bass line.

Rourke. Simply the most under rated bass player to ever live.

I really enjoy this video - as a Smiths fan and as a musician! Very well done, and I bet it was a blast to do!

Top performance again. I wonder how much influence Marr had over Rourke's basslines. This again highlights what a great combination they were.

@baldyman: Rourke wrote all of his own basslines. He and Johnny were childhood friends, they had great musical chemistry.
