Camel - Rhayader/Rhayader Goes to Town bass cover

Описание: Bass cover of two Camel songs, "Rhayader" and "Rhayader Goes to Town" from their 1975 album, The Snow Goose (or "Music Inspired by the Snow Goose" if you wanna get fancy). I was originally going to cover only Rhayader, but I figured I'd do Rhayader Goes to Town as well, and it ended up being a really fun suite to play. I actually am a big fan of a lot of Camel's material, with these songs together being one of my favorite pieces by them. The original bass line was played by Doug Ferguson, whose bass work on the Camel material is absolutely fantastic in my opinion. I followed the original line quite closely here with minimal improvising, but there are a few sections in which I deviate a bit.

I actually went through 4 basses trying to figure out which one to do this cover with, but I ended up settling on my go-to gear combo, the Fender 60th Anniversary P bass with Rotosound Swing Bass 66 strings through a Genz Benz Contour 500 amp. The tuning is E standard. Also, the actually bass playing begins at 0:38, in case anyone isn't familiar with this material.

Thank you for watching, and feel free to leave any questions, feedback, criticisms, suggestions, or requests in the comment section below. I plan on covering more Camel material in the future (Lunar Sea is just asking for it), but if you'd be interested in seeing me do anything specific from them, please let me know! I hope you enjoy!
