➡️ Andy Rourke is another name I constantly see in the comments, and we're FINALLY getting to The Smiths! I've analyzed so many great bass players on the channel so far, but Andy's performance on their song "This Charming Man" is a quintessential showcase of how to construct a bass line. I discuss how he pulls elements from both the guitar and drum parts to create an independent groove, how he suddenly begins walking the chord changes at specific times to alter the song's momentum, and his usage of unusual note choices as he outlines the changes. Every staple of bass playing is on display powered by a clear, punchy tone that carries the song just as much as the lead vocal does.
