Sadly the last one.  A View To A Kill.  I always thought there was some plectrum palm-muting on this but no mention.  Good discussion of the song though.

 

Did anyone notice JT playing a Kubicki in the  live on  stage vid of VTAK  ?

I never knew he played one

Really enjoyed watching through those, thanks for sharing them.

Duran were OK by me at the time, although I was suspicious that such a focus on image must surely mean the music and/or playing was being curated heavily by the record company.  I was already heavily into bass when Planet Earth came out, and couldn't argue with the groove.

I do think John Taylor was underrated.  I remember trying to produce my own basslines in a similar style, and it always seemed the lines were too complicated.  Somehow his were always perfect.

I'm late to the party at this one. Interesting as always.

Couldn't help but chuckle when he talked about adding an effect for the verse.You don't need an effect for that, mate.
