Mick Karn Bass Tutorials

Gotta say, thanks so much for posting these. He was a huge influence on my playing as a 17 year old back when Japan were around. Nice to have a clear breakdown of the parts. Time to revisit these lines. 

 

(unfortunately Dalis Car is too far out there for me to enjoy! )

Great tutes indeed.

I used to play Halloween on fretless, and although this guy isnt giving a tute, it's an easy enough bass line to play, and one of my fave Japan tracks

 

 

Yeah he’s great tone and he’s pretty accurate on this one too!

 

This album is one of my top five of all time. 
 

I love it.

Don't give up on Dali's Car - mightn't be as hard as you think!

I Second That Emotion

I Second That Emotion - Japan / Mick Karn Bass Playalong / Cover
https://youtu.be/QPUpU4RzG-U

 

This is just a playalong, but they get more requests views than the actual breakdowns for some reason. 
 

I imagine, like me, most guys can get a lot of info from just watching someone play a track through, and don’t necessarily need it in detail.

The entire Tin Drum album is now done and I’ve grouped the videos into a playlist

 

Tin Drum Bass Lessons

 plan to get to the entire Japan catalogue, which is really a labour of love. 
 

 

My respect for Mick Karn deepens with each song. 
 

Thanks to all who watched so far.
