Course Duration: 25 Minutes | Difficulty Level: 7
This video course will show you how to play Mark King's bass solo from live versions of the classic Level 42 track 'The Chinese Way'. When the band were playing this track in the late eighties/early nineties, the tempo was significantly higher than on the original recording, and the arrangement was altered to include solo sections for each member of the band. This bass solo is very challenging to play at this tempo but is a lot of fun to work on.
