Today we're looking at Spirit's In The Material World by The Police. The bass line is obviously played by rock legend and superstar Sting.
Sting is a VERY underrated bass player and this line is an example of a tricky bass line made even tougher by the odd intro and timing of the drum part, played by Stewart Copeland.
So today, I'm going to breakdown the bass line and give some tips on how to count the opening drum intro and play that great line.
