Is This the Greatest 'Post-Punk' Bassline EVER??
#bass #postpunk #trancription #plectrum #paulthompson Digging into an incredible bass line from 1981 - Derek Forbes wages bass 'warfare' with a pick on Simple Minds' "Theme for Great Cities". (Yes--the same band that did "Don't You (Forget About Me)" in 1985). I'll break down this incredible line, Forbes' concept, and how this track combines elements of prog rock, techno, and minimalism to create one of the classic vibe tracks of the past 40+ years!
