People complain about wrapping thumbs around the neck on behs, but I say, "If Jimi Hendrix did it on guitar, I can do it on behs if I damn feel like it."

There's a time and place.

Bernard is definitely one of the GOATs of funk bass for a reason, all of the bass lines he came up with are just impeccable and melodic enough so you can always sing along with them

DISCO-FUNK!

Personally i think “I want your love” is the best chic bassline. Seriously groovy and harmonically beautiful

Rick Moranis Rotten!! Ahhhh ha ha ha! I dropped a butter knife full of peanut butter, I laughed so unexpectedly - dammit, Danny!! Ha ha ha ha ha ha!!!

Never trust a bass player who doesn't appreciate funk

Becoming my favorite BEHS channel!

Loved this format, what a great vid Danny, please more of these

Then I'd hang out with you, I can't stand it when punks of all people insist all other music is forbidden. Nothing to feel guilty about!

You definitely deserve more recognition for this!

I for one admire those catchy chords of the Rodgers&Edwards Co.

Bernard Edwards makes me want to learn to play bass lol I need more disco and funk bass

Well done! The effort and passion are evident.

Not the funk genre, but I've always felt the bass parts in Airbag by Radiohead are just incredibly tasteful, minimalist, but they perfectly align with the groove

Great Disco behs playing Danny, the only thing that's missing is the white suit and the medallion.

Wow great playing Danny!! A hell of a technique - played just like the great man himself, with less blood on the fingers!

Nice retro throw-back!! Enjoyed this immensely!

Phenomenal job on that video. Your best landing so far.

Groovy 😮 I like that bass. I haven't seen that model before.

“Rick Morranis Rotten” is such a perfect descriptor lol!!! That should be a Halloween costume you feature in a video in October ha ha

Can't wait for this to get no views at all because people only care about short slop. Great content as always lad I like the non shorts vids!

Yep Danny, in the pocket, you got it!

Thank you so much for that!

I was at my behs lesson tonight and I saw a folder on the floor that said "Danny Sapko I'm organised". Turns out you used to teach at my music school at beat it music!

Sapko! You're the coolest

BEHS

Hi Danny,good afternoon,congratulations by your video,cheers and have a nice weekend for you,and long live the BEHS!!!!!!!!!

Really love your videos and I love listening and watching you play BEHS.

Great playing and great content 👏

My absolute bass hero,but for me i think his finest moment was Happy Man,absolutely insane technique and sound

one of my all time faves for sure. its him and jamerson up there

Very good Mr Sapko. Carry on.

Well that was some impressive playing there Danny. 😎👍

Damn! Yorkshire got talent! Great playing, Danny!

DAVE RILEY'S BASS TONE

Awesomeness Danny

Can we add "I Want Your Love" as number 8? Whole verse on one note and it just is perfect. Great video Danny, keep up the great work!

You should do more videos like this!! Great format

Talent and self depreciating humour...the whole package!

You're nailing that chucking technique. I could never get it quite right. Also that Retrovibe bass has got the tone!

More of this type of content please.

that was both sweet and smooth!!

tasteful choice of speaker cabinet

4:30 how happy he is playing.....

Your air-picking on Everybody dance is sharp as fuck brother. Hats off!

More of this, Sapko!

Good playing Danny!

Hell to the yes. Outstanding tribute 🙏

“Thinking of You” is 1979. It might have been re released in 84.

Danny, you have one hell of a good right hand, and your left hand is rock solid!

Nice playing Danny! you must have been taking Scotts BEHS lessons!!

Wow. Sapko himself and I both see the "Everybody Dance" bass line as one of the best. Bernard very well may be the goat. Disco was despised by quite a few people in its day, but I haven't the slightest idea how one could resist these tunes.

Day 200 of asking for Necrobutcher of Mayhem’s BEHS tone!

Danny, you are amazing ! You should be a behs player.

Great playing

I love that you're into funk and disco, so am I, I grew up in the 70s and 80s and miss the music so much. As soon as I one of my friends would put down everything but punk I'd throw on something like Walls by Crass or Abba so they'd lose their mind and leave.

IMO: James Jamerson’s bass on The Jackson 5’s “Darling Dear” is the best bass of all time. But, credit where credit is due.

and anything Verdine White played - September for a start,

For the love of God we need Cliff Buttons Anesthesia Chicago 1983 BEHS tone It Needs to Happen…

I know we're all about the behs here but can we have a moments appreciation for Nile Rodger's opening guitar riff on 'Thinking Of You' In my humble opinion the greatest opening riff of all time

I had no idea "chucking" had a name. I've been doing it for years. I just began one day when I couldn't find a pick, never looked back. Always played six string guitar with fingers anyway so I guess it developed naturally from that.

Today I learned Ratatouille makes Stingray-type basses.

Danny, you're a Hell of a behssist! Bravo! BTW, you play Good Times in first position...i do the same and i'd wager Bernard used to do it as well. Am i right?

subbed!!

Bernard Edwards - what an absolute legend!

Great tribute to Bernard Danny ' his grooves are all around us, such a talent

Killer BEHS video .... Gotta love Benhard !!!!

yes ive covered Le Freak and Good times in several bands and hands down the finest and most inspiring lines on the list. Bernard has been my hero for many years.

Chic's Savoir Faire and Sao Paulo havee awesome bass lines too. Thanks for laying out some great lines

Danny, that was pretty darn good! Did you ever do a video on the bass line for Deee-Lite's "Groove Is In The Heart?" One my favourite bass riffs!

That bassline/riff is a sample from Herbie Hancock’s ‘Bring Down the Birds’.

I absolutely agree about Good Times being #1.

Bernard was a god among men...

Good Times is also supposedly the influence for Daft Punks Around the World

Great vid bro. Love this bass player. Love the funk. I'm a drummer and love playing funk rock. ❤😂👌

WAIT DEACY DIDNT WRITE THAT BASS LINE

Rick Moranis Rotten 🙂

What an awesome video! Bernard Edwards rules for sure! Tho my funk favorite will forever be Barbara, specifically by the Fearless Flyers. So simple yet so great...! Joe Dart's just got it.

Great episode and I agree... That is a riff you can just rip for hours. I am also currently wearing my BEHS shirt all up around this b**ch. Cheers!

👏👏👏

🤘🍻🤘

I agree with everything you just said! Check out the extended version of Everybody Dance too if you thought this was good...

Day Something of Asking for Pär Sundströms of Sabatons Bass Tone

There are HUNDREDS of DISCO-FUNK masterpieces at the same level of this : BBqband Change Hi Fashion with the incredible DAVIDE ROMANI on bass.....Jump to the beat from Stacy Lattisaw....gonne get over you from France Joli....Ain't we funkin now from Brother Johnsons....and then Cerrone...EW&F...Bee Gees...the amazing MARK KING of Level 42....and we could go on and on and on....

"Can Danny Sapko really plays the BEHS???" 😄

can you recreate the swans bass tone !!!

V funky - nice 👌 entertaining video 😬

My own favourite is 'I'm coming out'. Great video though, and nicely played! 😊

Hi Danny Been a bass player 40 years, I love your videos and (long) Shorts :) Well done man. Now, I can see you have a sense of humour, can I ask ? Do you know the guy does the lucky cow bingo advert? :) Only Joshing Keep up the great work. Trev

No slap but so funky!

Bernard Edwards was a legend

Hey Danny, great video, I love Chic. Have you ever piccolo bassed? I know the internet recommends a short scale and preamp. But I put piccolo strings on a 34in Pbass and it sounds great. Tone on and tone off sound like 2 different instruments. I'm gonna get a new nut and saddles and make it proper

I got Daddarios. Tuning it was scary. Despite what the internet says, it doesn't hurt your finger anymore than regular roundwounds

And they all owe thanks to the GOAT -- James Jamerson !!

How about a video on Rutger Gunarsson?

Money Honey!

Honey....I shrunk the BEHS😅

Day 38 | Video 38 | New Behs Challenge for Danny Sapko: Play this Ominous Behs Riff, 17 Times… with Picc: 0E 2E 3E 4E, 3E 4E, 3E 4E 3E 4E, A2 E4 Pedal = Reverb and/or Delay There’s a lot more to the riff, but it would be a pain in the butt to transcribe every one. Also, I don’t know the amount of Reverb or Delay for the riff. BPM = 110 *Best Played on a Blue Custom Shop 1960s Fender Jazz Bass*
