    Outstanding! I think that is the second time anyone ever played it just like that. The first time was 50 years ago. Fantastic!

    LOTS of tricky timing here. You nailed it perfectly! But you didn't spill ALL the secrets in the transcription, lots of ghost notes and odd pauses that only slowing your performance down fully reveals, great job, thank you!

    Nailed the studio version perfectly. I’ve been playing bass and a big deadhead for 35 years. You nailed the tone and I’d love some details on how you accomplished it. Your “Phil-tone” was so perfect that I’d swear that you were unamplified and we were hearing the recording🙂 Very well done

    "Easy Grateful Dead basslines" search brought me here. Damn you Phil Lesh! God I love him.

    I've been trying to learn this song for a long time. Sure, I can "play along", but I couldn't even figure out what he was actually doing a lot ot the time. This really cleared some things up. Still might be another year before I get it down tho. lol

    Phil Phil Phil... and great transcription. So, the best part of Phil's line is the 'old style' Tuba line mixed with Phil's classic transition walk and how it works so well with the very pretty C and and G descending progression on the guitars... just magic... This is about as fast as this song gets with many many other versions slower to way slower... can get down to 65 bpm.. Great playing and transcribing Jason, thanks for putting it out in the ether.

    Lesh oozed creativity, he and Jerry were definitely the brains of the band. One of my favorite bassists for sure. Great cover.

    Incredible! I’m not sure if you take requests but there is literally NO quality bass cover of Ripple on TH-cam. I would love to see you post a video of you playing that.

  • @eatswellable
    @eatswellable 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    I have so enjoyed learning this song you think your cover. Any chance you could post just the bass line isolated? The part is so nuanced I think it might be helpful to really nail it!

    Damnation!!! Now I’ve got no excuse for not playing this the right way. I’ve been doing a bass line that more or less follows the guitar for 40 years. 😂
    Excellent job!!!

    Hey! can you please do a cover of Jethro tulls "And the mouse police never sleeps"? I really really love the bass line and ive been trying to figure it out for some time now but i cant, Would really appreciate if you could cover it for your next video!:)

    do you think Phil Lesh plays w a pick? I am curious if that was your preference or you think he does?

    • @morganthomas5934
      @morganthomas5934 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Yeah he does, and did for the majority of his dead career, it’s part of how he gets his tone, that and flatwound strings

    • @morganthomas5934
      @morganthomas5934 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Derek Levesque yeah man, it’s amazing what he does works considering it’s so anti-regular-bass-player but he’s excellent

    • @jimjarnagin5344
      @jimjarnagin5344 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I’m certain he does. Not only has he said it, but there’s tons of live vids that clearly show him using a pick.
