Don't Get Me Wrong - The Pretenders (Bass playalong / cover)


Bass-wise a driving pop-rock song with subtlety.  In the band we play the studio version at live speed. Was interesting looking up the history of this track, as there was a lot of drama in the group at that point.  Finding out who the bass player was, was a surprise. I'd assumed always it was a band member, but nope, it was one of the top session musicians.From mixonline : 
"The Eurythmics' bassist, Chucho Merchan, played on the session, but his part was later replaced by T.M. Stevens"

     Original Bass Player =  TM Stevens
     Links = Discogs ; YouTube

For the sound recording of the bass, see screenshot below of my setup. I use Linux for my recordings and videos, described in this post
