Hi!

I heard this song today, and I just HAD to do it... :D

So funky, a real oldie, the bassline is played by Verdine White, Earth, Wind & Fire's legendary bassplayer. I just tried to change the bassline at a very few places, according to my taste, which doesn't mean, that I think the original is wrong or something... of course I am nothing like Verdine White. I didn't try to "make it better" as many youtube bassplayers do... I just changed it. Musicians are not machines...

Sorry for bad video quality, I did not make this video at home on my monster PC, I had to use a way slower laptop without enough memory.
Anyway it came out okay. :D

Comments welcomed! :-)

  • Thanks my friend! :)

  • Trying hitting that F# in the verses a bit later :P otherwise, damn that's good for playing by ear. Finally someone understands how neccessary that is! Many thumbs up to you good sir!

  • @Bassically68 Thanks! :) Yeah, I do think that training the ear should get bigger attention nowadays. :) I'm on it. :) Cheers form Hungary

  • That Marcus Miller is my dream bass lol, played it in a local music store today and was BLOWN AWAY! It's so damn clear, it's a complete mind fuck. I thouht it would sound a lot like a regular jazz bass as far as slap goes..but nah. I felt like a pro playing that bad boy. Saving up right now.

    Nice playing too :P

  • @Jalreal Good luck with your bass! You won't regret saving up for it! :)

    Thanks for the comment! :)

    Cheers from Hungary
