This lesson is another in the series of lessons on short, popular bass riffs. This week we'll be looking at the disco classic Ain't No Stopping Us Now by Mcfadden & Whitehead.
As a supplement to the basic lesson, I'll be analysing the riff and showing how you can use the basic building blocks of the melody and rhythm to come up with your own cool bass lines.

Sadly my husband “JIMMIE WILLIAMS” original recording bassist for Ain’t No Stoppin Us Now” has passed away 10/19/20 RIP Sweetheart 😔😢🙏🏾🌹
I'm sorry for your loss Stephanie, Jimmie was great player. I heard the song while shopping yesterday and his bassline just blew me away and I couldn't wait to get home and try and play it. It's one of the funkiest lines ever. The song would work if it was just bass and vocals!
Sorry for your loss. We are grateful for his contribution 🙏🏽🙏🏽🎬👏🏽👏🏽
So sorry to hear that he’s left a huge impression on the younger generation!
Sorry to hear that. His Bass line will never be forgotten. Least of all by people like me who've played bass at a lot of wedding gigs. RIP my man.
Wow that's so sad sorry for your loss this is possibly one of the greatest baseline ever made grow up in the hood cleaning up on Saturday morning this was the Jam to get you started
Great lesson This song seemed so difficult and complex until you taught it. Every note is was so precise
You made fun and easy.😎
Just want to say you are a natural teacher. You make complex parts seem far easier and less daunting to someone like me and I just want to say a big thank you for that.
Love the attention to details and all the extra explanations as you go along. Thanks!
I started playing bass because of Les Claypool and I'm so glad I get to discover all these great funky music
The tone of that bass is beautiful.
That slide from Bb to C, then the jump down to Ab is the most difficult part for me. I've had to return to this vid several times while working to get it right. Thanks for posting.
Great lesson, really enjoyed it !Keep em' coming
Mark you are absolutely my favorite for anything I need to learn on bass... thank you for your resoundingly awesome brilliance...
Aha, the Marcus Miller Fender model!! My favorite! I have the 5 string version! Good tutorial there by the way!
Thank you for the SUPERB lesson on this brilliant bass line, I've always loved it and now I can play it too, thanks to you.
Great. I like the inclusion of theory in each of these lessons. Keep 'em coming! Excellent.
Really good teacher
Great Lesson. Clear and simple. !
Lesson material is great too , but you should include name chords to make it even more clear.
Thanks a lot mark
Great first time someone has explained it so I could understand can’t believe it .
you are such a wonderful person, and awesom e teacher thankyou
Not everyone will play it the same (note for note) but I loved the way your tutorial is done. I thank you very much, good job.
Jimmie Williams the original Bassist and writer of this bassline on this song is my husband....Close but noooooo!
Send my regards to genius and I agree , it’s not the bassline - this guy has ruined it
I'm very skeptical there is an E in the main riff. I always played it as D#
Aula excelente, obrigado por partilhar!
INSPIRED----BLESSINGS!
Suggestion - Would have been useful to add if a pick or fingers were used for "the sound", and the amp settings (or if DI'ed )for the studio recording? I assume it was all fingers playing style for the studio recording.
Great Lesson! thanks Mark!
Have you covered minute by minute by Michael McDonald? Love the way you break things down
So sorry to hear this ❤️
I love it I'm learning it 4 graduation I only no the skeleton which is b-flat c and f problem is I can't spread my fingers so wide
Absolutely superb, both lesson, and note explanation, i.e. why specific notes are used for particular chords. Wish I had this sort of knowledge back then, though! =))) Thanks a lot, and keep them going, as the theory background is both great and unique! =))
super helpful,thanks!
love that fender.. best teacher online..
Great job loved it but what happened to the intro????
Thanks, saved me from the curse of dodgy tab! (P.S. I call this funk as I would never be caught playing disco, Oh No Sir not me :-) )
Nice one
Am I missing something, at 13:30 you say "Second finger for the Ab" but you appear to play it with your first? Do you mean the F? You also say that later on for the little run and mention "Eb with the second" or are you calling the Thumb your first?
Picking hand not fretting hand
It's all about the picking. I very rarely spend any time on fretting hand fingers because they generally write themselves. It's the picking hand that causes most problems even if the player doesn't realise it.
@@talkingbasslessons Agghhhh I feel a dope now! I actually only came here mark because my speed originally (5 weeks ago say) was fine BUT tried it yesterday and I was tripping up over it! Hahaha perfect. Thanks a lot.
TKS
thank u for this
Hummmmm. I rake across with my index finger from A flat to F. I'll have to check out you way.
I seem to hear a bit of fuzz on this track. Is it a fuzz pedal or just gain from the amp ?
Im not seeing the link for the notated music :(
Sam Brown Hi there. Sorry, I forgot to put it in the info. Duh! You can get it over here: www.talkingbass.net/aint-stopping-us-now-lesson-analysis/
uhhh, subscribed
Scientific fact if you play ain't no stopping us now every morning 🌄 you'll never catch COVID-19
Sugar!!!!
just give me the tabs please... ¬¬
That's not what this is. This is a bass lesson breaking down the riff and looking at it's construction. This is how you should learn bass lines. If you're just looking for tab you're in the wrong place. Pretty much any bass teacher of note will hate the use of tab.
@@talkingbasslessons ok, i don't get why people would hate tabs, they work just fine for me, but i'm aware they are for "amateurs" i don't care, i just wana play, but anyway, your video helped me, i would just prefer to have the tabs on the description, but whatever...
Not original key....
Nice try but that really is not the bassline
Hate to be the bringer of bad news but...it is.
The notes are right but the grove is off.
seriously couldn't you just post the tabs?
