YYZ (entire song)

Me playing "YYZ" by Rush. I learned this using some somewhat-flawed tab I found online and then filled in the wrong parts by ear using a couple different recordings. (The original Moving Pictures album recording is mixed badly for trying to pick some of the bass runs out from the guitar and drums, and Geddy plays a slightly simplified bass part in concert). The bass is an Ernie Ball MusicMan Bongo 5-string dual-humbucker (no piezo) bass. Recorded by running my pedal board through a cheap NADY TMP-2 tube mic preamp and into my PC's line-in jack.

I am a beginner bassist and trying to learn this song is not a good choice. I have everything down it is just my fingers can't finger the notes that fast. Any suggestions on technique?

[c0d3h4x0r]

@liampwnedu Lots of practice, and stay relaxed.

@liampwnedu lmao im a guitar player and the first song i tried to learn was closer to the heart and that wasnt a good choice either x)

@liampwnedu do what I do, PRACTICE YOUR ASS OFF!! not being sarcastic, ive been playing for 7-months only, i can play this really well, you can do anything you put your mind to, start off with easy songs, look at my videos for 2 pretty easy ones ok? then do some more progressive and harder stuff like im doing right now and youll be able to play this in like 2-months maximum

@MadBassist2 I think timing is ok, notes perfect, but there's no spirit, no groove
