Great job as always! I remember the first time I heard this song when I came home with "Out Of Our Heads" under my arm. Played it endlessly on my Sears Silvertone phonograph. The song is every bit the 60's anthem as any the Stones put out in the middle of that whirlwind decade.
Definitely NOT the last time on this channel.This really takes me back and renews my faith in the younger generation. I hope that doesn't sound too patronizing.
Been trying to learn the guitar to this and doing ok so thought I’d check the bass pattern to compliment it also noticed soccer hero Georgie Best having a wee boogie great stuff thanks for the upload and well done cheers 🏴
I know I commented too much on this video, but did you just fill in most of the bass-line (mainly through the verses) yourself because I find it outstanding that you were able to pinpoint what Wyman played, since he's so drowned out in the song.
+The Foxy grandpa I tried to play what I could hear Bill doing on the recording, but some of it may be a bit different as it is incredibly low and barely audible.
Do you know what Bill is playing during the guitar solo of the last time at the NME 1965 concert? Here's the link: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-It6IHLoVQhY.html and the song begins at the 9:10 mark
The Foxy grandpa Yeah, it's basically the same pattern as the rest of the song but he goes from the E on the A string to the F# then slides to the G#, then he jumps to the B on the D string, then he jumps back to the G# on the A string, then slides back to the E and repeats.
I love nearly all Bill's basses, I love both Framus Stars, his Vox teardrop Wyman bass, his Fender Mustangs and his Gibson SG. I'm not too keen on his Travis Bean and Dan Armstrong basses though, or his Steinberger basses. I'm not sure who my second favorite member in the Stones is, they're all equally great haha!
A guy did a video on it saying that the neck is very thin and it feels very dainty. Also that you would have to practice getting the notes right to prevent the bass from farting out. Despite that, it does sound very nice and quite softer than any other bass guitar. By the way, there is a website called phantom guitar works and its an online store where you can buy many Vox Teardrop type instruments and even the original version that Brian played, just improved. This man in Oregon named Jack Charles makes these types of reproductions. He makes teardrop guitars, basses, phantoms, hollow-body teardrops, and many others. I plan to buy a Brian Jones Teardrop from there. There is a catch though. He ships mainly throughout the United States. luckily for me i live in California. But, if you live out of america and want to buy a guitar from there, you have to contact him via email or call about shipping. The cost may vary since you live in Britain. But he does make the Teardrop bass guitar that's just like Bill's Vox Bass and it is a legitimate site. There may be a message that says that something called my big commerce is impersonating the website, but there is a message at the bottom that says that phantom guitar works uses My big commerce. So its all ok.
The Foxy grandpa Yeah it is. Funnily enough, I was in Bill's restaurant Sticky Fingers in London again on Sunday, that's where he keeps it on display these days.
Its still funny how Bill's bass preferences went from this really small bass, to a gigantic red bass, to finally some medium size basses that fit him, by the way didn't he use this again in the 70's, and in that really recent concert?
The Foxy grandpa Yeah he used it a few more times after the 60s, in fact I think I heard somewhere that he used it on all the Stones albums except one. He now plays a Wyman Signature bass which is modeled from the home made one.
