No More Heroes - Intro

[Guest MoJo]

Watched a couple of YouTube 'lesson' videos but not totally convinced. Could anyone please tell me what they play on that run down in the intro?

God, I love P basses

JJ doesn't  play it live like the record I think they may have double tracked it. I just run down from the 12 fret playing fast then play the 3 fret on the D string and open g for the last note near enough for me.

Not really any help but wouldn't it drive you mad watching vids of people covering your work and knowing they were all wrong. How do Pino, JJ etc resist making a definitive lesson and potentially having a very lucrative youtube channel?

There’s a clip somewhere on YouTube of the excellent Derek Forbes of Simple Minds playing I Travel, just to show us how it’s done...

It looks as though cold drinks may have been taken prior to the recording of the clip!

Maybe you could get your band to play this track - superb bass line

Dan Hawkins of the darkness has done a walkthrough of one of their own tracks too,  very funny guy!
