At a time when synth bass ruled, Duran Duran were described as a cross between the Sex Pistols and Chic. What’s more, bassist John Taylor possessed unearthly skills when it came to crafting bass lines that were a perfect mix of funk, disco, and pop.

In today’s video we take an in-depth look into John Taylor’s complex yet hooky bass line on the Duran Duran hit Rio – complete with note-for-note transcriptions and a free PDF workbook.
