That bass player has no idea what he's doing.

@vlock1

See nothing wrong with him. At 2:13 he starts playing more than 2 notes.

@TheGuitarManEIRE The bass player plays the piece perfectly.

[TheGuitarManEIRE]

@TheMartinace I agree

man, 1981. this bunch of 18 year olds probably wanted to listen to the human league. instead they got a bearded drunk guy and a band of weirdos playing this. And by the way, i love JM for decades.

bassist is not modulating per the song - what the freak, the whole mood is altered, not for the better -

[vlock1]

@TheGuitarManEIRE Still astounding, though, seeing the young JM playing this gorgeous melody. Still ashamed of myself for not catching him in Brooklyn a couple of years ago. I had Nirvana tickets once, too, and didn't go because of a bad cold.

@TheGuitarManEIRE You're right. Far better for him to be following along with JM 6/7ths of an octave higher.

[panzermort]

you think that he might of been told to do that
