@@phoenixdaronco9540 No. It'd be the biggest honor fo me thatr the guy who composed it took the time to show you how it was actually played. I would be over the moon.
And yet, when Hooky left, New Order released their first great album since Technique. If Hooky leaving is what it took for New Order to make great music again, I'll begrudgingly take it. I have a soft spot for the dense and complex One True Passion, but Music Complete is better than any album by Revenge or Monaco. Maybe I'd rather see Hooky live, but I'd rather listen to Barney and the crew actually make new music.
He may be wrong Peter BUT that is a damn good attempt on a right handed guitar by a left handed guitarist! Thanks Peter, love your bass playing, absolutely amazing sounds, thanks for years of super music...
Kevan B it’s because they had crap equipment and Hooky couldn’t hear himself over the guitar and drums, so he started playing high on the neck and chords The plus side was that they automatically created a new sound, as well as always sounding like they had two guitars and bassist in the band
all the chorus and flange. because new order uses a lot of synthesized bass, and ian curtis back in the joy division days liked the bass to carry the melody so he didn't have to, hook has turned into this sort of guitar-bassist more than a bass-guitarist. thanks for watching
I have to believe Hooky when he says Bernard became a bit big-headed, but they've reconciled before, though it's New Order's decision to let him in. Besides, if you asked me if I wanted to see New Order or Peter Hook and The Light, I'd choose The Light any day of the week, great band with a spectacular atmosphere and energy.
Left handed on a right handed bass makes it sound fantastic - strumming from higher to lower strings creates an incredible depth or better width of sound
Peter Hook has never been a technical bassplayer, but he created his bass language and style. Anyway, for me the best postpunk new wave bassplayers are, beyond to Peter Hook, Derek Forbes of Simple Minds (period 79-82) , John Taylor of Duran Duran (the basslines of DD and Rio are fantastic), Simon Gallup of The Cure, Mick Karn of Japan and Paul Gardiner of Gary Numan/Tubeway Army too. I was forgetting Steven Severin of Siouxsie and The Banshess.
@alienvomitsex Yeah but mainly bass guitars because they’re a staple instrument and every band needs a bassist. Most post-punk bands mainly use synths just to add texture and atmosphere.
This is AWESOME. What a great experience that must've been! Also, your upside-down lefty version was very impressive, even if Hooky had to correct you on the finer points.
If I ever wanted to see someone mend broken fences, those two gentlemen would HAVE TO BE AT THE TOP OF MY LIST! If miracles truly exist, please let this happen within my lifespan!
Subtleties - Note just after the 1:03 mark (after the open D to A chord part), when he does the A chord/drone strum: The first two eight notes are downstrokes, the rest are up/down. Repeat. Makes all the different in the world.
There was a story by SLash I think where he was sitting with George Harrison and Slash played the open riff to Day Tripper or maybe I Feel Fine. George said "no its like this" and played it slightly differently and Slash said "are you sure?".
No it's Gary Moore and about the A Hard Day's Night opening chord. Moore recounts that Harrison didn't reply but just looked at him as if to say, 'Yes, I am actually Gary'. What a pity that he never was able to show us.
Thank you. The perspective I got From them is that they thought of new order as a shadow of joy division and would Work with producers and take risks with technology to almost dare themselves to succeed or fail. Really humble.
Very cool, I had a five minute guitar lesson with Dave Edmunds around 1983. Sure, I’d love to see other videos of world famous musicians playing their songs especially when they say everyone else plays it incorrectly.
I would be glad if the artist said to me i played it wrong and Showed me how to play it right. Because that's a sign of respect and he want you to do it on the good way.
