I've been trying to perfect that opening riff for about decade now. Thank you for presenting a better approach to practicing it.

I've been learning this song on guitar recently, and this video is simply the best way of breaking down the opening riff I've seen, Thank you so much!

❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥 great job now I just need to buy a bass 🤓

Very informative. Thank you!

Я из России. В 1998- 99 мне было 18 лет, мы с пацанами играли на сцене песни группы " Айрон Мейден". Я был ритм гитаристом. Сейчас мне 40. Изучаю БАС. Вам огромное спасибо ! Хоть Английский язык знаю на 3 балла, это не мешает мне обучаться на Ваших видео !

Toujours agréable de t'écouter à la basse et de te lire Hoʻoponopono👍🎸

Very insightful video! Hope you continue on with them, learned a whole lot from your videos, thank you so much

Thank you for this.

Salut grâce à tes vidéos j'ai pu travaillé plein de morceaux de maiden à la basse. Merci beaucoup pour ça. Je commence à maîtriser le galop à 2 doigts à un bon tempo . Merci beaucoup !

Thank you! This is the most challenging Maiden song for me to play. The bass part following the guitar is very fast. I been slowing it down on KZfaq so that I can get the notes all in. Thank you , please keep up the great work!

Wow merci beaucoup pour ton excellent travail. C'est très rare dans les vidéos que le timing est expliqué de cette façon. 👌🏼🎯👍🏼

Great job Didier!

THANKS a lot, Didier

I’ve been taken to task by my wingman to learn this on bass..I agreed last Sunday but wasn’t so familiar with this particular Maiden tune..It’s about 7 1/2 minutes long and fairly high on the difficulty scale..lol How did I get myself into this mess? There are several videos of this on KZfaq and yours is the best I think.. Thank you for your transcription and pray for me please…lol BTW, I have to learn “Smoke on the Water too but, what’s the difference?..lol Thanks again and cheers good sir…

Thanks Didier!

Super bien expliqué :) ! T'as la fibre pédagogique Didiousse !

Great job!

You're really great!!

Great explanation!! Love your videos :)

Thanks!

Everything would be so much easier playing with a pick! The only hard thing on iron maiden songs is that the bassist (Steve Harris) refuses to use a pick, and after 150bpm it gets really tricky to keep it up. Not only that but when you have two guitars in the mix and you’re playing heavy metal you won’t hear a bass cutting through unless you’re Steve Harris… the man changes his strings every show, grows his nails and pluck the shit out of his bass… me??? I’ll just gonna use a pick, screw it, problem solved

Mon bassiste préféré avec Flea . Merci Didier de cette vidéo j ai appréciée . Dis moi petite question " tu ne fais plus de séminaire le dimanche ? . bises 💋

🤘🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Why you are literally bruce dickinson bold head?

That bass looks so fucking nice. What is it?

Hi Didier, First of all I wanna make my compliments for your amazing playing, and thank you for your educational job in this very niche contest, of Harris geeks. I’m a long time Harris player, more than 30 years, i’ve always found a bit weird the Phantom’s Intro and even the 2 more or less official scores published didn’t catch the spot in my opinion. I’ve carefully listened to your 2 videos about Phantom, i see in this video you’re playing the most common part, (a 5 note group made by a sestuplet whitout the fisrt note) but i think it’s slight different compared to what you play in the bass cover video, am I wrong? In your video: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/Z6dddpCpkq21Z2w.html i hear a group of 7 notes (the very first melody before the regular triplets), and it’s exactely the part I hear in the original recordeding, but i never been able to write it down. I’m thinking that’s it’s a part recodred “on the fly” and barely not transcribeble, What’s your opinion about?
