Rush is truly the only band where you can make a top 23 basslines list and have people ask why you didn't play their favorite
Only because Les Claypool starts a new band name for every album, now.
Because Geddy lee is the greatest musician ever!
Exactly. Like "Open Secrets" and "Circumstances", for example. Amazing.
Haha, yup!!!
And to add my personal favourite to that list...
"Guys, Y U no play The Trees?"
Lol totally agree!!
It's insane how Geddy can sings while delivers these atomic riffs right on our faces.
We can't forget he uses his feet to play the moog at the same time, too
Well, He is a Professional!!!😁😁😁😁I Wonder if he ever got his 10 bucks from Bob and Doug Mckenzie???!😁😁😁😁
And foot pedals
@@spuds6423 10 bucks is 10 bucks!
@@italoderecife and keyboards...
Playing these riffs is really impressive, but imagine coming up with them in the first place.
And singing ;)
@@acirka and playing Moog pedals and synth
That’s why we can see 100 bass players nail his bass riffs, but we haven’t seen another band with a bassist who comes up with stuff like this. The same is true of Peart, there many drummers who can copy his riffs, but we haven’t seen another band with a drummer writing stuff like that?
Geddy also wrote his pieces to perfectly fit with any fill that Neil came up. In fact, it is Geddy’s bass that makes Neil’s fills really punch, as his bass highlights each accent and cymbal hit. There has never been a bassist and drummer duo who so perfectly mesh their rhythms and fills as Geddy and Neil. They were the ultimate rhythm section and the reason that Rush sounded so full for a 3 piece band. Geddy and Neil sounded like a band by themselves.
I was just thinking the same damn thing. How?! 🤦🏼♂️
@@RoarOfWolverine nailed it
i will never know how Geddy was ever able to come up with these lines AND sing at the same time. Truly best bassist/ front man ever.
Same band since the 60's is how, he added over time as he learned, for a while he also played a double neck guitar & bass because it was a stage in their music.
Talent plus non stop practice. in other words, he worked hard and earned his abilities...
... and that is why I love to practice as much as possible even at 56 I still am inspired to pick up my instrument and play every day, usually for 90 minutes minimum 4 to 5 days a week is realistically, wife support me.
God is good, Geddy is great. :-D
Les claypool is the best bassist but Geddy is top 5
@@kanyesouth3126 Of course you know who is best!
and play keys and foot pedals.
Wicked basslines, a unique voice that resonates with every song that is sung, and also all the years where his keyboard/synthesizer playing would blow your mind away! Geddy Lee, truly one of a kind!
🤘2112-4EVER!🤘
For anyone not aware, Tim is in a band called YYNOT. I'm not associated with the band, I'm just a fan that thinks they deserve a huge following. They started as a virtual "band" doing a RUSH inspired instrumental and video called YYNOT. They shared that on the popular RUSH messageboards and began to build a following. Everyone recorded their parts from their respective home states and were put together by creator/producer/guitarist, Billy Alexander. They began making amazing RUSH covers the same way. Billy eventually added a young woman named Rocky Kuner to sing. She is a tiny vocal powerhouse that can nail early Ged vocals. She absolutely owns No One at the Bridge. They have had numerous drummers over the last few years and were looking to find a permanent drummer prior to COVID-19 but as with all bands, have been side-lined. They have created two albums of great original music. They have done some touring and put on amazing shows that are a mix of RUSH covers and their own originals. Their touring is a bit unorthodox because Billy and Rocky are from Cali and Tim is, I think from Florida. They don't have a touring bus or anything like that. They book shows and travel individually to venues. For a band that is rarely in the same room with one another they are incredibly tight. Once live music is a thing again if you have a chance go see them. Incredibly talented and nice people. If you do a search there are a lot of videos of their covers and originals as well as videos from their live shows. They have a strong Facebook presence and their own website and merch. They also have what they call the Social Distance Club which is kind of a Patreon type club to help support them during these difficult times. YMMV, but I think if you are a RUSH fan you will almost certainly like YYNOT.
Hellz yeah!
Rocky owns “No One At The Bridge” because no one else dare sing it because of that killer bridge, that includes post 1980s Geddy Lee. Her viersion of this song is goosebump-inducing, hair on the neck standing, incredible. I played it for my wife, a huge Rush fan and extremely critical of all Rush tribute bands and she pumped her fist in the air on the “scream out desperation, but, no one cannot hear” and yelled “yes!”.
I am a guitarist who used to play in bands that covered Rush, so I give a bit more girth to tribute bands, knowing how difficult their stuff is to play. I am still critical on the ones that stink, but the few that top the list are all very good, bands like New World Men, Lotus Land and YYNOT are three of the best. Now I really love YYNOT, but I’m sorry, I think New World Men are the best tribute band. I do think that Tim is the best bassist I have heard though. YYNOT May be the best band of musician, I just think that New World Men capture the sound of Rush the closest.
That may not be a good thing as far as music careers go. Sounding exactly like another band is not going to help you developing your own material. The problem is, if you have your own style, it will reflect when you’re trying to sound like Rush. YYNOT are beginning to release their own songs now and that is awesome and the right thing to do. They can use the fame and audience they have garnered to expose their own music to and it seems to be working.
The three guys from NEM have captured Rush’s sound so perfectly that I think they’d have a hard time making their own music and not have it sound like Rush making new music. Mat sounds so much like Geddy Lee when he sings, I’m not sure he can sound like anyone else. I really can’t see how in the hell he can sing Geddy, while playing Neil Peart on drums. I would have never thought anyone could have accomplished that. Rocky is a phenomenal singer, but I can tell her voice from Geddy on pretty much every song. That’s probably a good thing, because sounding like Geddy would not help her on their original songs.
They guys from NWM sound so much like Rush, I’m not so sure if that would help them build their own identity doing any original material. The YYNOT original songs that I have heard so far, don’t sound like Rush songs and that’s good, because they are building their own musical identity. Their songs are very good.
That alot. Been wondering who this guy is he is nailing the bass part .. I gave him compliments a few time .
They are the real deal, and awesome people to meet and talk to. Saw them in Tucson Feb 2020. If you want to listen to original music in the Rush image, YYNOT is that band.
So I went to YYNOT's web page and started browsing some of the samples they have available... at first I was thinking "what kind of CRAP is this? It sounds like a bunch of junior high kids trying to jam..."
Then I realized I still had this video playing in the other window.
The YYNOT sounds MUCH better by itself! Playing both albums (not at the same time!) on Spotify now. the Rush influence is prevalent yet it's all original. I'm loving it!
There is no joy greater than playing “Leave That Thing Alone” on a Geddy Lee Jazz Bass.
geddy bass playing has become an art by itself
I agree but I like the Rick bass and sound much better.
@@williampatterson5067 I'm not comparing the two bass sounds, I'm just saying that getting the same jazz bass tone from the album and live performances is fun.
That’s a tune 🔥🔥🔥
Omg yes
Step one: hear those lines and be amazed
Step two: realize he sang at the same time he played that
Step three: roll over and cry
Step 4: realize he also plays synth with his feet at the same time
it's stunning to think that a guy like Geddy can be one of the greatest vocalists, bassists, and musical composers in rock, all at the same time. Geddy is a one in a billion guy. and then for circumstances to be such that Geddy ends up in a band, making music with, and being the best friends of fellow musicians and one-in-a-billion guys like Neil and Alex, that's like a one in a trillion occurrence. it really is incredible how some of the best bands coming together is down to the most minuscule of worldly chances, and insane luck, and there really couldn't be a more perfect combination of band members and people than Rush.
How...I mean to sing and strum a guitar is one thing...but bass, hard enough...and playing at THAT LEVEL is insane!
Step 4: go practice.... even while realizing you will never be a good as Geddy Lee.
Let's not forget he is also playing sampled synth through floor pedals at the same time.
Tim "air drumming" after his amazing bass work on "YYZ" is just PRICELESS.
Man, that Rickenbacker tone is A KILLER!!!! 🤘🤘🤘
no really compare to the jazz and p bass
just me but yes the rickenbackers
have a better rush sound then then fenders
@@wishkah59 no way bro. Fender Jazz >>>>>> Ric.
I like the Ricky better too. The Fender is awesome, but nothing quite like the original tone . . . I always wonder why musicians move away from the instruments that gave them their 'classic' sounds? I never thought Neil's Ludwig or DW kits sounded as good as the Slingerland or Tama kits either.
I was always disappointed a bit whenever I saw them live and Geddy would use the Fender to play the earlier songs he originally recorded with the Rick. There’s nothing wrong with the Fender, but I still associate all of the music prior to Permanent Waves with the growl of that Rick, especially when he was still running the Rick through the Ampeg SVT with the 8 10” cabinets.
Not that this was a competition or anything, but the bearded gentleman killed it.
He’s awesome! Plays in a band called yynot you should check them out!
Minus the stupid faces.
@@Darrin.Crawford that's half the fun!
I feel like, historically, people focus on the whole package with Rush to the detriment of acknowledgment of just how brilliant Geddy is on bass guitar. You two did him proud.
One of the things I always liked about the production of Rush albums was that I could easily pick out the individual instruments which made me appreciate it even more when I just listened to the ensemble as a whole.
It definitely happens to lifeson too. Like rolling stone ranked him #98 on their list of best guitarists ever, criminal. I guess it’s easy for people to overlook your technical skill on an instrument when you played with Neil.
Nobody ever touches Circumstances. What he plays under the verses is beyond incredible
for real. my jamming buddy and i play Rush songs at my house (me on guitar, him bass) but he won't even attempt Circumstances. I showed him Earthshine the other day too and he wasn't too keen!
Great guys....how the hell does Geddy play all this amazing stuff and sing and play keyboards at the same time.....I always said that he is some kind of freak of nature. Best Band ever....
Rush had 2 musical geniuses and one mere "virtuoso" no shame that Alex is only a "virtuoso" still an excellent musician.
@@wmhhealth2018 sorry....3 geniuses
Recording is a process? I still understand what you're saying
👽👽👽...🤣🤣!
@@wildmike951 you're right
Oh Yeah Rush. The hardest thing about those brillant Geddy Lee riffs is to sing at the same time. Both players did a fantastic Job.
Don't forget playing keyboard with his feet....
I know. The only other bass player who does that as well as Geddy is Mark King (level 42).
@@Sreven199 here for this comment...
I find the hardest thing about those riffs is playing the riffs, never mind singing or dancing on the pedal keyboard.
@@Sreven199 And keys/guitar with his hands and bass pedals with feet.
Top Rush bass riffs: ALL of them.
Also dog years 😉?
I agree
@@Rosbergen80 ALL
Dayum near EVERY RUSH song has frikkin insane bass licks, insane guitar, and impossible drum rythyms! These three guys represent the TOP Bassist, Guitarist, and Drummer in ANY genre!
@@stevenhenninger8994 Agreed, I play all those instruments. It´s a BIG effort to learn any line in any instrument. There´s just no easy song at all.
There some things that simply should not be interupted by ads. Rush bass riffs are such a thing!!!!
Agreed. Unfortunately, it’s not up to us because of copyright claims.
@@TheBassChannel Sounds about right :(
Get ad block!! Free!!
Ad Block for TH-cam. Hear songs/stories/whatever uninterrupted. Oh it's also free. 👍🏼😁
Favorite Rush bass line is the entire song Cygnus X-1 Book II from Hemispheres 😌
That one for me as well. And Anthem
@@lordundhimself1310 Anthem is a killer baas line too...Geddy had so many epic as hell basslines across 30+ albums that it's no easy decision to really single out a best overall.... I'd also like to take this moment to acknowledge the awesomeness of By-Tor and the Snowdog...
You’ve given me a new one to look up!
Thats my all time fav rush song.
Hemispheres tour was my first RUSH show
Geddy Lee forever! His job in Rush is amasing! One of the most talented bass players in history, I think.
I agree with you man.
Top 2 only behind Geezer
Agree, awesome to see Les play A Tribute to Kings!!! That's what it was :). Geddy is unbelievable
Not a bass player but I'm amazed Geddy can sing over that Big Money verse bass line. But just looked up a live performance and he indeed can do just that. That's impressive!
You should check out the verse bass lines on Circumstances. In an early video (the official one), you can see Geddy trying really hard to concentrate and even struggling a little to keep his sanity. Go check it out.
Yeah, that one's a bit of a brick wall for me...I'd have to sit down and just try, try, try. "Turn The Page" is even harder, but yes, Ged nailed it live.

Basically one song from every album, except for Moving Pictures, which has 3.
I have had the pleasure of seeing Tim live twice, and it's not the same as watching him on video. Truly a force of nature. I'm proud to call him an inspiration, an influence, and a friend.
Bearded guy has some great Bass faces!! That Ric is sweet
Check out Tim with YYNOT. Great RUSH covers and originals. Their singer, Rocky Kuner has amazing pipes and can nail old school Ged vocals. Billy Alexander is a producer/guitarist/songwriter that has been heavily influenced by RUSH and has perfected their tone.
Great job guys.
Couldn't help but shed a little tear for Neil. Becoming aware of the magic interaction between bass and drums on the Farewell to Kings tracks (it's there on ALL the tracks played btw) reminded me he's moved on.
I actually had chills when they played vapor trails... he was a great person, despite never meeting the guy
3+ bass lines that i could add to the list:
Middletown Dreams - Power Windows
The Anarchist - Clockwork Angels
Seven Cities of Gold - Clockwork Angels
Congrats to the video, really amazing!
I'm not a bass player (drummer), but I've always loved the bass lines for "Digital Man," "The Big Money" and "Marathon."
DM is an amazing bass track. Non stop.
Rush music and lyrics were a huge influence on my how people interact and deal with life. I own a bass....and have played in bands. Just jam out with friends now....LOVE RUSH
Geddy is a freak of nature. So cool to hear him covered so faithfully. You could easily add 100 more riffs, but noticeably absent for me is Freewill, the bass lead in to the solo section, and then the entire solo section, which is just sick by all three band mates.
Agree it's his best moment on bass and that's saying something
Every time I see Tim's face on a thumbnail I turn up the volume and get ready to be amazed. 11/10 every time!
I've never ever picked up a bass guitar in my life, but at 3:24 this is such a bad ass bass riff!!!! Give me GOOSEBUMPS!
Roll the bones is a great album, dont care what anybody says...
The groove and timing to Roll the Bones is still an absolute fav!
My favorites off that album are Ghost Of A Chance, Bravado, and Dreamline. There were definitely some great songs off that album!
I love that album too. Ghost of a Chance is one of my favorite songs.
Just re-listen to Hold Your Fire! No Zip No Zap and NOO Power. Sounds like Alex wasn’t even there. Geddy had turned it into THE GEDDY LEE SHOW! And he found out from Alex and Neil both that the keyboards were GONE!
I’ll tell you which Rush albums aren’t any good..... none of them, it’s a trick question. The reason they had such a long career is because they were always daring enough to be different and change it up. Al of those people who complained probably would have lost interest in the group of they just continued to make music that sounded like 2112, whether they know it or not.
Every record Rush ever made has great songs on it. Yes, they got a bit keyboard heavy starting with GUP to HYF, but their are still great songs on those records. Rush didn’t know how to write bad music. It was always unique and challenging.
Tim Starace is a genius with this stuff and we all love his tones 👏🏼
You guys absolutely nailed those tones!
When a piece of gear boasts to have someone's tone soldered somewhere inside the dark electronic viscera of a pedal, in my view such marketing statements cross the thin border between bold advertisement and outright lie. In this case I truly believe there is a tiny Geddy trapped somewhere in this box. No, don't let him out.
Geddy is the best bass player of all time
The transition from YYZ to digital man was cleaaaaaann!
Great job!!! Tim's a riot to watch, and an absolute BEAST of a player!!!! Josh is incredible too-would love to see him tackle a selection of Steve Harris riffs! I can't pick a favorite!
The Enemy Within has got to be one of the most difficult basslines out there. Good effort on that one
As far as Rush goes its actually surprisingly easy
From 3:24 until 3:28... I don't know he managed to figure out that break, let alone play it!! Amazing!!!
- Geddy Lee, The King of Bass ! Long live Rock n' roll !
MG - Brazil
I love the bass tone on Counterparts, my favourite out of all the Geddy tones.
What a fantastic chronology. The evolution of Geddy from pre-1980's through the decades has just been performed in what can only be described as a clinic. Wow Tim. Natural Science perhaps is one of the most overlooked/underrated Rush tracks. Truly a masterpiece. And YYZ? It's freakin' YYZ!!!!
Tim Starace is made out of awesome. Super cool dude, and fantastic player.
Tim's awesome videos is why I bought the YYZ pedal! Gets that Geddy tone and so much more! Love it!
We are twins xd
I have the MXR Bass DI+ and it has a distortion that, while it can't do exactly what this box does, does something I haven't heard elsewhere. When not going specifically for "fuzz bass" it's kind of cool leaving it just barely on.
Props to both these men jamming to Getty Lee to perfection!!
Two of my favorite bass players covering my favorite bass player in one video. Oh joy of joy!
WELL DONE GENTS!!!!! 😀😀😀🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘👏👏👏👏
Now, imagine having to play those tasty riffs plus sing, play keyboards, Taurus pedals, trigger effects.....ALL AT THE SAME TIME!!!! 😳😳😳😳😳
Ged is a TRUE master at his craft!!!! 😎😎😎
This is so well done. The sound. The editing. I like how we get to hear the sound the two different basses make. The song list is good,and the facial expressions as you both play....show joy in playing these great songs. Thanks for this.
How could anyone down vote this vid?....these guys pulled it off in stride....well done gents.....👍👍👍
18 fisherman who thought they were getting fast large mouth bass rigs?
mean mean stride?!
Who says bass players cant have fun? These 2 fellas are having a blast and i am too just watching em
I have to say that Clockwork Angels has some of Geddy's sickest grooves......and that's after a career of sick grooves as this video points out!
Malignant Narcissism is a drug. I can loop that song over and over again.
That song is great, but for me that whole album centers around the Monkey Business. It's such an absolute monster of a track.
That was a surprisingly emotional and wonderful journey through Geddy's bass lines. Well, well played gentlemen. Fascinating to hear the continuity through the years given how much the production and songwriting trajectory Rush took changed so much.
Rush was mind bogglingly talented, memorable, fun, intelligent, and inspiring. RIP Neil. A shame we will never see them on stage again
OMG the best collaboration on the internet!
You both did an outstanding job of displaying how great Geddy is, thank you!
I’ve never had an issue playing Geddy’s parts, until I stopped playing them with a pick. This is godly.
Whats a pick? Is that the thing those guitarists use?!!
Inject all the Rush bass riffs into my veins.
How cool to get Tim too!
All those lines are fucking sick, Rush is really one of the things that excites me most in life and make me want to enjoy life
Tim makes these Geddy riffs look so easy. The only person who makes those bass licks look easier is Geddy himself. Tim is an incredible bassist who can nail all of Geddy’s dynamics perfectly, which isn’t easy because Geddy really hits those strings hard and uses his index fingernail to pop the string for accents.
Now just imagine, Geddy plays all of this as he is singing lead on every song, not to mention playing keyboards with his feet on many of them.
It's really a personal treat to see 2 great players interpret these songs in their own unique fashions or approaches . Close to perfect as it gets .
Absolutely think you are awesome and Geddy is my favorite bassist along with keyboards and lead singer,he did it all and never missed a Rush concert from 1974-2015 😎
Got Damn, Margo!! That was awesome!! Just resurrected me out of the sh*tty mood I was in!
josh and tim..you both sound great but imagine geddy was singing over most of these lines!!! he's from another planet
I always get knocked off my horse when I watch other guys who can really play the bass perform. But self assessment is good. Thanks for the video.
I enjoy watching these guy's play. It's easy to see how difficult the bass lines are in Rush songs are to play. Geddy sang while he played.
I’m glad they showed love to post Moving Pictures riffs. The Enemy Within is crazy
La villa strangiato has to be one of the funnest songs to play on the bass, Never have gotten sick of playing that.
Legendary name
@3:23 wow! You nailed it! What a brilliant riff by Geddy! I love that part! Well done!
The tone of the Rickenboker bass is just SICK. LOVE 💘 IT.
I’ll probably end up getting the yyz pedal. And maybe the Di-2112 in the later future. Tim starce is just awesome though. I love seeing his post on the rush Facebook group
Played the live version of red barchetta, nice.
"Show Don't Tell"! Yay! Second Rush song I ever heard. Made me want to be bass player for sure, at that point (I was 12).
That was amazing guys. Rush the best band of all time.
The guy with the beard is the guy on the Geddy Lee pedal preview and he's in the band YNot. Both of these guys are awesome though but the guy with the beard looks like he's having more fun playing.
The Bass Channel + Tim = match made in heaven ❤️
I haven’t played my bass in so many years because I just haven’t had time but mainlining such a big hit of groove is gonna leave me jonesin’ for a long time to come. I just feel like myself when that vibe is going through me, man. Thanks for sharing this!!
Finally, someone nails the La Villa bass solo! NICE!!!
That was fookin’ AMAZING!!🔥
The algorithm gods blessed me with this today!! 💥
The inclusions at 1:26 and 10:05 made me literally jump out of my seat for joy! Have loved the work in those songs for many years. (And the execution of the bassline in "La Villa" at 3:06 was just flawless.) Absolutely astounding. Thank you guys, for the priceless treasure which IS this video!
"Leave that thing alone" is my favorite Rush bass line ever! But all of these are fantastic...
This video did not disappoint. YYZ, Cygnus X-1, Headlong Flight, Leave That Thing Alone, New World Man, Big Money, and Driven. You made some damn good picks.
Just add Xanadu and Territories and you have 25 !!!
this list being in chronological order speaks to me man- good work :D
when you did anthem and bastille day back-to-back, i genuinely thought you'd just do the entire R30 overture. you almost did when you came back for cygnus parts 1 and 2
dunno how you were able to only pick one song from permanent waves though- spirit of radio and freewill both have several great bass sections in them alone. also, no bass solos from vital signs or subdivisions?! madness
great choice on the enemy within. i think people forget just how much bass playing there is on grace, power and hold. whether you like the 80s sound or not, you cannot deny geddy's playing on those album, whilst singing and doing all the synth work
Grand Finale from 2112 - I forget to breathe, sometimes... damn, it's just as fierce and powerful as the first time I heard it.
I have to give it to Show Don't Tell.
That bass line is freaking interstellar.
Wonderful playing there!
That was great fun to hear and see! Well done guys. In case anyone ever had any doubt about how brilliant Geddy is LOL. Absolute monster creator of intricate, groovy basslines
Seen Rush play Circumstances live...still can't figure out how Geddy sang over that bass line...unreal
Fico imaginando , como o cara consegue cantar e tocar desse jeito ao mesmo tempo , só um monstro virtuoso pra conseguir
Concordo! O cara é fora de série! Isso por que isso são apenas riffs, imagina a linha completa totalmente complexa de baixo junto com a linha vocal!
Ps: ainda tem o fato de ele tocar os sintetizadores com o pé e teclados com a mão.
É impressionante mesmo, Geddy Lee é fenomenal. O Rush é fora de série. The best Band!
You could play anything from 1976 to 1993 and i would still like this video. Amazing skills, but Geddy is another level.
The best 13 minutes I have spent in a long time!
OMG..
Sonetimes you forget how amazing Geddy was until you see someone else work through his lines..
Great job guys!
And Geddy played keys, foot pedals and sang!
My Fav: Ghost Rider... so subtle.
Yeah... 😳
The bass line for New World Man is the most perfect bass line in the history of bass lines.
Marathon, Force Ten and New World Man. My fav
Fantastic players!
Hey Timmy - you are aging like a fine wine my friend! and for those that don't know him, he was this good at nailing Geddy when he was 12!!! Hope all is well dude, when this covid thing is over i would love to see your band live, you are an inspiration to all bass players.
Hey buddy! Lots of fun times back then.
Rickenbacker and Jazz. The best if you love agressive bass tones
You guys absolutely Rock. And I would have to say Natural Science was the best bass line.
josh is brilliant , new guy on the block , to me that is, love the hard work these bass players do , Rock on !
This video is fucking awesome. Cliff Burton made me pick up a bass, but Geddy Lee made me want to learn how to use the instrument. Wonderful collection of the best bass licks in history
Lovely, nothing like a double barreled, double bass attack, c/o Mr Weinrib's bass lines. I actually feel better, thank you.
Outro to Red Barchetta. Nice touch.
That was awesome!! You guys did a fantastic job!! Thank you - this video will be saved as one of my top favorite Rush covers, yet.
Both excellent players. Tim's chops are astounding!
