Rush - 'YYZ' (Bass Cover)

This was the first song I recorded a cover for and uploaded into YouTube some years ago. For some reason I bumped into it the other night. I realized then that video was owed a big revamp. That is an epic, monumental classic song to leave it at that. I had just refreshed the song as I was asked to record it, so here it is!
Moving Pictures was the album I got to know Rush. And this song need no further introduction.

Tuning: Standard
Bass: Fender Jazz Bass '78 with EMG electronics

Let alone the playing is perfectly spot on, but that tone. Hot damn that tone.

[zamkowicz]

This must be the best YYZ cover I've ever heard. The sound is so clear and precise

[martfly]

Played with no single mistake, freely and effortless. Finally i heard all yyz bass notes. Best yyz ever.

[lifeson]

Love the tone dude and those old school Geddy right hand flicks 🤘

[corenthinvantalon]

Rush's songs are among the most difficult but you really nailed it, as always! 👊🏻
Congrats🥇

[pietrogarnum]

That's crazy, I've been listening to Rush non stop for past 2/3 days and then I got the notification for this! Perfectly on point as always \m/

[TheMrMused]

Nailed the tone. Nailed the feel. Nailed the cover!
Super enjoyable, as always! Thanks for posting!

Even though I discovered your channel this year, YYZ was one of the first covers (if not the one) I watched after Anesthesia, wich brought me here.

I started Bass, end of January, learning a few songs ; YYZ is hard but seeing you covering it once again pumped me up once more.

Muchas gracias.

Your attack and clean tone are what keep me coming back.

[Duality]

The Man... The Beard.. The Fingers... Awesome as Always

[ekdikeo]

jesus christ, you make this song look *easy* instead of *terrifyingly difficult* lol

[DadOnBass]

This is the kinda shit that would make Geddy himself clear his throat! Just WOW dude.. unreal! Ive been watching your videos for almost an hour now..

[walteralexander]

Wow... fantastic. You are super good... I'm just beginning base at 51 years old... you are amazing.

This could be your magnum opus Kello. World class playing man. Sound was balanced, not overpowering, perfect technique. A serious heads up for the aspiring bass player. Sending love man. 🙂

Beautiful instrument 😍🖤🖤🖤
Super duper deep and rich tone!!!

Great job! I just learned this song because my son, a 9th grade jazz band drummer was learning it. I had to take my 76 jazz bass in to get setup and the neck straightened to be able to play this song. Again…. Excellent work

[willholland]

Awesome again Kello.Keep those horns raised my fellow low ender.

[MMiler]

As someone who is learning to play this on fretless (I'm a masochists) I take my hat off. If someone said close your eyes and listen to Geddy play a version of YYZ, I'd believe this was him. Great, great job, man!

[drumorrison]

I think the dude that gave you a thumbs down knew you were not playing the keyboards with your feet. He expects to much!!! Great job, man!!!!
