Awesome, would to see more of those 80's bass players, Steve Severin, Jah Wobble, Mik Karn, Barry Adamson

Mark, I'm already a member of the Talking Bass website and have bought a few of your courses, slap bass, Prelude in C, and Chord Tone Essentials. To see a bassist of your caliber covering Joy Division is the ultimate of cool. So many of the big KZread bass players thumb their nose at Peter Hook. When I asked one such KZreadr about covering Hooky his response was 'I would rather talk about someone who could play the bass'. What a dick, I was expecting no reply at all (lots of followers), yet he took the time to dis my suggestion. Thank you, now I'm your fan and student for life.

I've been a Joy Division/New Order fan for almost 40 years. Agree that he is one of the best. A different style but its HIS style. I make sure I see him with his band The Light whenever they tour.

That’s hilarious because Hooky is a bassline machine. Nearly everthything he makes is catchy and has that edge to it. You’d be lucky to write that many good basslines and songs in a lifetime.

That hurts to hear! Peter Hook kicks booty!

This is the bass line that made me want to learn bass. It is not complicated at all, but my God is it beautiful. My dream is to conduct a magic ritual that will transform every bass player in the world into Peter Hook. I will sacrifice 100 Yamaha BBBs and 10 000 chorus pedals and recite the lyrics to Age of Consent backward in Latin and every bass player will become Peter Hook and the world will be a better place.

The song and bassist that make me play bass

This is the best bass line of all time. I could play it for hours. So emotional.

Thank you for doing the Joy Division video they are one of my favorite bands of all times

I love your content, and Joy Division is one of my favorite bands, I really appreciate you covering this.

Hooky is such an incredibly driven bass players, but then I excitedly went to see his orchestra show at RAH and had my first experience of true northern fans after they had aged. Naturally I loved it having not seen Joy Division live, fabulous night out.

One of my favourite bass lines to play, Peter Hook is a genius. ✌️😙

Definitely a classic bass line from a classic song. Thanks for sharing this lesson Mark. I''ve always enjoyed playing along to a droning open string. This song is a great example of that.

Terrific break down , so informative about the nuance and technique. Lots of other great joy division and new order basslines too

awesome. been meaning to learn this one forever and you made it super simple.

you are so cool mark you are the best bass teacher😍😍

Another great lesson thanks Mark and free aswell. I am definitely improving, mainly thanks to you.

I love this song so much. I was so excited to see it. :) I'm looking forward to it. I know everyone tells you what videod to make and I just wanna say that I'll watch these videos regardless, but I'd love to hear your thoughts on thundercat

Thanks, Mark. This was such a great tune and I even loved the Paul Young cover version

Do more joy division mark please

"tips on fingering" got my hopes up, but this was only about playing bass😂 Joking aside, this is the best bass tutorial channel👍!

Thanks. Great tune :D

Sweet sound

I learned to play this 30 or so years ago by listening to the record of it and I'm glad to see that I got it right. The only thing I do differently is I tend to add a fifth to the A drone on alternate bars during the chorus, not that I thought it was right but just to break up the monotony. I was hoping you would show the ending because I have never been sure if I play that part correctly.

One of my 80‘s favorite. Love it. Great bassline!

I'm 2:10 in when I post this but LWTUA is a great example of a Dorian melody.

Very nice. Mark, have you seen the video "Peter Hook schools me on how to play Love Will Tear Us Apart"?

@talkingbasslessons

Жыл бұрын

Yes. In that he actually plays it different to the original and how I used to play it. Until I heard the isolated bass line I was playing the open A drone instead of the minor 3rd interval. Like Hooky does in the vid. But the original is different.

thanks for the awesome vids, how about "to defy the laws of tradition" by primus

Im pretty sure hooky used down picking for that second bit of the bass line from seeing the music video for lwtua

💙👊😎

IIRC I read Peter Hook said that one might not have had much chorus.

Lol. I was waiting for the trolls to come out. The video you’re referring to is the Hooky Schools Me one. That is how I actually played it until about a week ago. Then I listened to the isolated bass track. The bit you’re talking about is the B with the minor third. In the video he plays it as the B with the open A string. That isn’t how he plays it in the original. It’s very obvious to the ear (unless you don’t have any ear training, obviously). I personally think he’s going for the B on its own but he’s still holding that D down from the previous chord through dodgy technique (he hadn’t exactly been playing long). He probably used the downstrokes I mention in the lesson and the D is heard as a residual note. Whatever the reason, the way he plays it in that video is definitely not the same as the original. That minor third is definitely heard. Live it’s a totally different story. Live he plays it like in the video.

Gosh, thin skinned much? Poster just said you were playing it wrong. Don’t really consider that trolling… Anyway, you’re playing it correctly as far as I can tell, however, to my ears, you don’t really cop the vibe of the original but I suppose that comes down to using alternate picking vs downstrokes. Original is much more aggressive, your version is pretty by comparison and I don’t mean that as a diss at all.

Downstrokes all the way my man

you're playing it wrong but that's cool.. hahah
