Your Mother Should Know

Post by rickinroma »

I particularly like the plunky sound of the picked notes in the intro, played by Paul in the record. I hope I have been able to get close :)

I really like the plunky, thumpy tone you get out of your Rick, Francesco. Knowing next to nothing about Rick basses, it that peculiar to the 4001? I suspect not, but that it's rather the way you play it. Right?

This is another one of those McCartney songs that I never really cared for, but I'm starting to like it more as I get older. The bassline is a really good one and is another example of McCartney's excellent bass writing skills.

Great job playing it, too, Francesco.
