For bass players, tackling a Deep Purple song means stepping into a world of groove-driven rock, and Highway Star is no exception. Roger Glover’s driving bass line locks in with Ian Paice’s drumming to push the song full speed ahead.
In this video, Sharon jumps in as fast as possible, breaking down the bass line and figuring out what makes it tick. With a mix of groove, pentatonic phrasing, and a few tricky surprises, it’s way more than just root notes. Can she keep up with the energy and speed? Watch and find out!
