[cleric443]

wish i could do that!

[thomasv72700]

Can I have the tab please ?! :D

[haddles2000]

I saw this band in the 80's and was mesmerised by the bass (fretless if I remember which had a cleaner sound). Looks very tiring on the fingers. Well done.

[kryst1985]

gettin me hot!

[MrAmadaeus]

Nice playing!

Great choice, Derek Forbes is one of my fav Bass players, He's posted stuff on You Tube so he's probably sneaked a peak at this himself!

Good work fella!

[07019986]

[andrew80s]

[TheTrailblazer666]

You play like a beast dude, awesome!

[paulerickjohnson]

[boothfenn]

good sound...just a suggestion play the deep riff down the neck like derek and use the open strings i think it will loosen it up a bit....well done

[flo64348]

Fantastic !! Best bass line from Simple Minds.

Can you play Moscow underground please ?

[robyg70]

good timing. Keep it up.... ...any chance you're gonna do "waterfront"? That would be interesting. :-)

[browwwsers1996]

I have long touted this as one my fave bass pieces, and you have proven why.

[ghr600]

my fave simple minds song, you nailed it

well done mate.

[sinister066]

totally blew it away mate

[fiq4512]

Great skill.You may also want to try Fishbone's Freddie's dead,that is a killer bass if you ever heard one.Try to locate Cold Life by Ministry as well.Another great bass line is from Ian Dury & the Blockheads called Dance of the screamers.Good luck and keep up the good work.Peace.

[danthewelshy]

Cheers ill be sure to check them out when i get home in a few days

cheers

[Syntattein]

Awesome vids dude! I love watching them! I'd love to see you doing Peter Hook's bass from Perfect Kiss!

[Linus27]

Excellent playing. Can't fault it to be honest. Derek Forbes has always been one of my favourite players so I'll be putting up a couple of videos soon of some of his bass lines. Keep up the great playing.

[danthewelshy]

Looking foward to seeing them. Make sure you let me know when you have done them.

Cheers

[Linus27]

Will do. Might start with Someone Somewhere in Summertime and then Glittering Prize.

[darrenverno]

Cheers, thanks a lot. By the i like the chili peppers aswell.

[darrenverno]

Yea could you do colours fly catherine wheels? Thanks

[danthewelshy]

Yeah ill let you know when its up

[bassatnight]

Not sure if you know but Derek Forbes has put Colours Fly on You Tube - saves tabbing it out ;-)

Well done mate Glittering Prize is a tricky one to pull off..

All the best!

[danthewelshy]

Aye i have covered it. The question is when is he going to start posting more vids!!!!!!!!!!!

cheers

[murraydeschot]

Dan,I lobbied him to post more on the 4GM forum, but the whole things up in the air at the mo, as no one seems to know what's going on with 4GM. He's probably in rehearsals for the Mondo Bongo's forthcoming Amsreican tour just now.

If it's any concession, he was VERY flattering about your skills, Dan.

Now, when are you going to attempt Kajagoogoo's "Too Shy" ... that's a tricky bassline to master!

[daviex]

brilliant again.

how about trying it playin thru an MXR flanger. derek forbes use's one of those for alot of tunes. i have one and it makes a HUGE difference.

[darrenverno]

Im a big simple minds fan, you played it brill. Lets see some more!!!

[danthewelshy]

Do you have any simple minds requests for me?

[TPToE]

Hunter & The Hunted, good sir!

[danthewelshy]

working on it, be up soon. Ill let you know

[sinister066]

bands just dont write bass lines like that anymore.superbly played.

[CraigR70]

AWESOME.

[robtrilogy]

Nicely Done!

This is very hard to get spot on and to keep up..but you did it proud

Well done mate.

ROB

[danthewelshy]

thanks for that :)

[bassatnight]

Excellent! Well done mate... If we could only get Derek to post himself doing a few more!!

[TPToE]

Have you considered doing Hunter & The Hunted? That I would love to see!

[TPToE]

NYONG NYONG! A great rendition of my favourite bassline from my favourite bassplayer, from what is practically my theme-tune. Great work, man! That has made my day.

[danthewelshy]

glad you enjoyed it :)

[darrenverno]

Really brill mate, play more simple minds. Top marks!!!

[danthewelshy]

Hey thanks for your comment

[saschabroich]

Looks and sounds beautiful and absolutely flawless. And this is a difficult bassline. Great!

I hope you plan to play some more Simple Minds basslines.
