Can’t believe he is the same person from the legendary Pink Floyd performances, namely Pulse, Delicate sound of thunder. Feels unreal! Hats off sir!!

“A spaniel with a head injury could play that” ... love the honesty. Refreshing... and so enjoyable to watch. Thanks for making it fun Guy.

That's why Roger Waters wrote "Dogs" : he sang about his spaniel skills.

Watching you and Leland Sklar has been the highlight of my quarantined existence.

My 14 year old son this past year told me that he wanted to really get into playing the bass guitar. He's been in music class and after class all the time getting his teacher to let him play his Fender P-bass. For Christmas we got him a Harley Benton JB75 with a Fender Rumble 15 amp to get him started and to practice on. He's been listening to bass players from all over the spectrum to soak them up, Lemmy, John Deacon, Roger Waters, yourself, Geezer Butler, etc. to listen to how a bass is played from different perspectives. When he listens to songs he's always able to pick out the bass lines first with anything, he's always had an ear for it. I'm very thankful you're here putting the music out there for younger players hungry to learn. Thanks again for all you're doing.

That tremolo bass part to 'One Of These Days'' was awesome. I could see the projection of those hypnotic yellow circles and red lights in my mind as you played it!

Mr Pratt its not often we get to pass on the huge thank you for the years of entertainment and enjoyment received from watching live performances from DVD or listening to albums recorded. So please accept a huge and hearty "thank you!" for your work and the joy its made in my life.

"I'm not really good at any of them" referring to his own solos - a vast, vast understatement my friend!!

😂 oh come on, "one of these days" might be simple to play, but the bass bit on its own is genuinely incredibly enjoyable!

I think for someone who's played it hundreds of times, he may have a bit different view of the song & it's simplicity. But for me, this video was fascinating!

Humorously condescending, yet still gives you the answers… for free! What a champ! 5 stars!

I always loved, loved, LOVED the version of One of These Days that was played throughout 1994. Especially in shows where the middle part went on for longer, and more sound effects and whatnot were sprinkled in

So today I learned that a spaniel with a head injury is more musical than I am. What a time to be alive.

To be honest I think your solo on Money is some of the greatest bass playing ever, thanks, Guy 🤘👽🤘

The money solo is simply stunning. Thank you!!!

Damn these videos hit hard 3 years later.

Never thought I'd see an intimate performance of these in my lifetime. The enigma of 80's Floyd has finally been unveiled!

This man is the reason I play bass. Thanks for the music Guy.

Hi Guy . You're a freaking legend. We love ya

You make me smile. Great humor. Thanks

Absolutely love everything about this! Don't do yourself down Guy, this is a legendary part and only you can play it like this!!

loving these Guy, keep em up if you can. Thanks for uplifting us musicians....

Not sure if anyone’s said it yet but the ending lick on Learning to Fly (Pulse) and the intro lick on Sorrow (Pulse) are fantastic and always a blast to listen to.

I think one of my favorite things I've ever seen you do is the "Famous Disco Basslines" thing... probably because it was stuff you obviously loved (as do I... Bernard was so good). But looking forward to the Toy Matinee stuff. Thanks for taking one for the team; at least it wasn't "Play some Skynyrd man... play something we can dance to" :)

Man great great hilarious video! Just what I (maybe we) needed. Funny, ranty, suntanned and still gives in and teaches the tunes people should be able learn on their own. Thank you so much.

I think my heart broke that moment he says he dont like Precisions while having this beauty on his leg.

''couldn't be fucked to learn it again''. Story of my life.

i could listen you for hours Guy so much fun to listen to such a master at your craft cheers !

Amazing. Thank you Guy! This is pure gold for all of us!

Thanks man! You are the reason why I started playing the bass.

LOL you're the greatest and funniest bass player in the universe!!!

Always a guaranteed laugh. Some certainty in these strange times is appreciated. Thanks heaps Guy.

Your music related videos are the best most enjoyable things I have watched since this whole lockdown thing.. wonderful..

I don't even play bass. Just simply and genuinely enjoying listening to you talking about it.

My Spaniel was absolutely stinking up the room with his bass line cover of Comfortably Numb. So I hit him up side the head. Viola! Who knew?

Great Guy, this solo is one of the indelible things about that great concert !!!

Spaniel with a Head injury had me falling off my chair laughing. Brilliant. Loving these lock down licks. Have to say i enjoy your solos on the various tours.

🙏🏻 Hola me encanta saber que solo tú llenaste el vacío que dejó la separación y siempre apoyaste a Nick y David solo albums...y que todavía hoy seas el bajista de ellos te hace parte de PINK FLOYD & i feel proud of you for that‼️ Por qué tú y tu estilo son únicos like PF‼️⚒

I love this Guy! :-)

Love your playing,Guy! Have done for soooo many years. Loved your dad’s acting too, back in the day....yes, I am that old! :) Cheers and keep up the great work!! Jim

Maybe, the solo itself is not that exceptional as you may have intended, Guy, but within the context of the song, it's just PERFECT. And that's why people love it so much.

Love his british humor

"I can't play bass solos cos I'm not good at them" - then proceeds to play a really good bass solo.

I am melting over the overt sarcasm throughout this video. This is so much fun!

My favorite Guy. Thank you for the fun bass moments. Stay safe, Love! 💕 🤫

Love these videos! Leland Sklar has been doing pretty much the same. Bass heaven!!

Oh look Guy Pratts KZread channel. Subscribed.

I can't overstate how much I love these videos! As a total non-musician, it's fascinating for us to see *how* these songs are played, both with your techniques and the effects pedals. I also love your cheeky responses to the comments. Keep 'em coming!

Iconic! You are an amazing artist and glad to have this opportunity to have a bit more detail on these favorites...

I saw the Division Bell tour when I was eight, in Chicago. One Of These Days scared the crap out of me with the terror pigs.

Guy Pratt may be my new favourite person

This is awesome! I wish these videos had been around 30 years ago when I spent a good portion of my spare time pressing 'rewind' and 'play' on my old VCR trying to learn this solo. Thanks for all these videos.

Guy's videos are very educative, mostly because he is a nice bloke. I just try to imagine how positive and supportive everybody was in the band that powered those unforgettable tours...All great musicians, down to earth and funny. It must have been quite an experience to travel the world and do magic every night with the right people. Thanks for the memories Guy, I had the enormous privilege to see Pink Floyd in Mexico City two nights in April 1994. That was a dream come true and one of the magic happenings in my life...

You really make me laugh, which I a good thing right now 😁but I'm completely broke so I had to sell my guitar a while back. I have a chronic pancreatitis and really miss having a guitar. If anyone of u music people have a old guitar I would be eternally grateful. Stay strong beautiful people and remember that your government are lying to you....🤔👊💛💚💙❤💛💛💛💎

Dear Guy. At first when I was watching this video, I didn't even realize who you are. I just thought, wow, that guy is great 😅 But now I know who you are… Shame on me, I’m sorry, but I forgot your name and my English apparently isn‘t good enough 😅 Thanks for all your videos, your great live and studio performances in past. Keep going on! Cheers from a formerly bass player from Switzerland.

Legend. One of the reasons that l started bass, thank you Guy.

Just love hearing the bass. So glad to find your channel. Loving your book too. Thanks so much.

The one thing missing from the bass line that was only heard on the album, was David Gilmores bassline.

Bassilicious indeed. 💜

Brilliant, haven't laughed and enjoyed a KZread vid like this in ages, cheers Guy

If my old music teacher was like this I’d probably be able to play something by now , never mind this guy is the GOAT

All I can say about Guys Bass Playing is it’s fucking brilliant and fucking loud. Docklands Arena 1989 during Pink Floyd Momentary Lapse tour, One Of These Days was so ridiculously loud, I almost spewed. It was like getting booted in my gut.

I clearly need some delay and tremelo effects to add some fun to simple basslines. Thanks Guy! I loved seeing you on Pulse.

Thank you so much Guy! You're really fun&lovely... remember when I've eared your Money's bass solo at Venice live in '89, I exclamed "OHH WOOWWW"!!! I think you're a very very great musician 😊😃

Guy, just want to say you were a huge influence on my playing and you are one of the best bassists out there!

Guy, no entiendo muy bien el inglés pero quiero que sepas que aún así me encanta ver tus vídeos, eres un máster! Cuidate muchísimo! Saludos!!!

Despite its simplicity there's something about One of these days that sets my head rocking up and down. Hearing you mention Saucerful Of Secrets somehow led me to reading about Syd Barret. All I can say is Yikes.

WOW , Bass on one of these days ... I remember being a kid standing in the distance when you played the momentary lapse tour in Mannheim at the maimarktgelände. I will never forget the sound of the bass doing the groove , going into the delay based groove . Pure magic. Thanks Mr. Pratt for providing a childhood memory with images in my mind will never forget !!!

Can we have a video on "staying alive" by the bee gees please?

Love your videos....and I’ve never touched bass in my life.

Word is Spaniels with head injuries are very keen on the song Dogs...

Thank you Guy, for me is a plasure to repeat and learn your "Great Solo" after year ! Ciao from Italy !!! Marco

You are an amazing guy, Guy. I have been following your music since I have memories of Pink Floyd but other than that I really appreciate your talent and friendly character with people. I saw you live in Toronto 2016 and it was amazing your bass made the stadium tremble. Thanks again for your music!

Just finished reading his book "My Bass and other Animals". Who knew that angelic faced kid was such a "Wild-Child"! It's been a very long time since I laughed out loud reading a book!

This means maybe you saw my video of the solo too, OMG

That is not a bass, that is THE bass. The one that he used for delicate sound of thunder

Always loved Guy as a bass player but these videos are brilliant. Really funny and a genuine guy.

Guy, I absolutely love the bass line from Sorrow. The bass is so industrial and powerful... It is one of my all time favorite. Thanks you!

Guy Pratt has turned into Bill Bailey?
