From a bassist who can play this song perfectly, im honestly more impressed by ppl who can get the underrated guitar parts right than the bass. So much more movement than anything geddy is doing. Well done my man

That's one of the things that makes Rush such an incredible band. Their songs, as a whole, are amazing, then, when you break them into their instrumental parts, you see the complexity of the music. Each being it's own voice yet meshed together by 3 insanely talented, gifted and humble musicians to create a tight musical onslaught on ones senses!

@@trainguy1017 i think a lot of what alex had to do was write parts that fit what geddy was doing, and alex was excellent at that. I learned from the rockline interviews that they did from 84-07 that geddy was the primary song writer. Alex had very little do with writing very much. He contributed parts sometimes and obviously the solos, but geddy really was the one putting everything together and wrote a large majority of everything. So alex had to find his role in this band and he fit in nicely. I get the sense alex wasnt happy with rush in a very long time. Part of that is he just sold all of his rush guitars, so im thinking he may not look back at the band very fondly because of his limited role, but he was such a team player. Filled out the sound the best he could with such a busy bassist trying to gobble up the spotlight and attention, and he never oncd complained publicly.

@@trainguy1017 and geddy has made snarky remarks to alex about his limited role. During vapor trails alex was talking about how “we were there working,” and geddy sitting next to him said “you were?” Other interviews where geddy was saying he would start working on a song and alex would take his usual place on the couch and go to sleep. There is a little animosity between them that peaks its hear here and there about alex’s lack of involvement in the creative process. But I personally love alex’s playing in rush. He really just fit in so great.

as a guitarist who learned this song, Geddy’s bass sounds much harder. And Alex’s parts already feel impossible

Well main thing obviously is just keep practicing, really takes a while to get it down. Some tips might be using a smaller pick, closing your right hand up for more mobility, and the most obvious one, start slow and work the speed up
