Agree with the comment about his limited technical abilities, and Hook would admit that too. He almost is like a non-musician that picked the bass and made it his own. Even with non-technical abilities, he was able to craft a unique style sound. There are a lot of "better" bass players who can't say that.

You need only play one note on a bass guitar--and really any instrument, for that matter--in a song as long as it grooves. Victor Wooten has preached that all day long since like forever.

The New Order song Perfect Kiss is the best example of his bass playing. He plays it like it's a 6 string lead guitar. His Joy Division bass work is more iconic.

I’ve always thought/said that Hook plays the Bass like a lead instrument rather than a backing or supporting one. It’s very up-front and present as opposed to just laying down a simple bass line.

Glen wrote most of the tunes for the group and was an accomplished player

Textbook example of how being a great musician has little to do with being a virtuoso player. "Love will tear us apart" is a simple, yet absolutely brilliant bassline.

Put simply, Hook started out seeking a 6 or 8 string bass guitar and ended up essentially needing only 2 strings. One note played to groove is all that's needed.

Hook certainly had an impact on future bands. One of my all time favorites, Ned's Atomic Dustbin, had two bass players. Alex Griffin as lead bass was certainly inspired by Hook as his bright melodies are a signature sound for the band.

Nicely done. Peter Hook is definitely in my top 3 favorites because he is so unusual and unique.

Is Simon Gallup one of the other two?

Peter Hook, and Jean Jacques-Burnel, have always been my two favourite bassists - both made the bass the 'lead' instrument, rather than just following, note-for-note, the chords played by the guitarist. Both bassists also had great stage 'presence' - Hooky with his low-slung bass so that he often had to bend forward to play it, and JJ Burnel prowling menacingly around the stage with his trademark black Doc Martens, and randomly doing karate-kicks without missing a note.

Really interesting video! I would love a video about Steve Severin, i love his bass style!

At some point in the video he says that "he used effects chorus and delay which was very common at the time" when it was them - joy Division that popularised those effect in the kinda pop/goth/post punk/ambient scene.

I love pedal tones on bass. I use it a lot.

Peter is in the same category of bass playing as Adam Clayton (U2) in that they play what is necessary for the song and not overplay. Technically both are simple, yet effectively creating memorable riffs that highlight the song and allow other instruments and the vocals to shine through. Saw them playing back in the early 80's and still one of the better live shows at the time (considering no in ear monitors).

I find nothing unusual in Hook's playing. Just a tendency for playing modally, and with a rather bright sound. Is he a great bassist? Totally. It's not a matter of simplicity of the bassline but JUST DOING IT RIGHT IN THE END. In the end of the day, he is always so CONSISTENT. He sits right on the mix. Has evolved a lot technically throughout his career too. He makes the bass SPEAK to you. Always. He has done a lot of diverse stuff and he ALWAYS manages to transfer his enormous energy to the listener. Many show off pros can't do that. Just because he isn't playing slap funk 240 bpm type bass doesn't mean his technical abilities are limited. I totally disagree on this one. He is TOTALLY qualified for the genres he plays. AND HE HAS INSPIRED GENERATIONS OF GROUPS AND MUSICIANS. A huge impact on the historical flow of art.

But he was even more inspired by the Stooges!)

excellent vid. Thanks. Next Andy rourke from the smiths’? An underated bass player.

Yes!

Hooky changed the way I saw the bass. As much as I love basslines, he really sold me on the bass as a melodic instrument. Sumner's guitar playing with Hook also changed the way I saw the instrument. I'm sure other's have done it before, but Joy Division is what got me to see the bass playing melody and the guitar supporting the bass as an option and a way to change up the "orchestration" of guitar music.

very well done, thank you

omg thank you very very much

Something I've never seen or noticed before @4:44, Hook playing a Fender Precision bass or copy with lollipop tuners. Fender used these between 1966 and 1968 on Jazz basses. They're also found on a few '68 vintage Fender Precision basses but they're quite rare and it's a bit surprising to see Hook apparently playing one.

How to sound like Peter Hook: Try to sound like Ennio Morricone with "limited technical abilities" and do your own.

I feel like Musicians and Music Fans tend to obsess over complexity. There is nothing wrong with that mind you, I love out there stuff that tests the boundaries of what music can be, but for me, music at its core is about feeling and passion. Hook isn't a "blow your fucking mind" bassist but he is still tremendously good. Joy Division's staying power I don't think is a fluke, and while the music itself is not tremendously complex , it speaks to people to their absolute core. For every Victor Wooten, Flea, or Geddy Lee, there is some bloke in a warehouse jamming with his friends, and too me that is what music is about.
