Hey! Trying to get back into the recording groove! Got some new gear(basses, preamps, pedals) and had some time today to work out some stuff.

This track is one of the reasons that A) I play bass and 2) That I'm back(sorta') playing the basses that I'm playing.

If you ask me "What's the best band that came out of Seattle?", MY answer is, and will be, Queensrÿche(not saying they're my FAVORITE Seattle band, THAT distinction belongs to Alice In Chains)! In terms of musicianship, songwriting, and everything that goes with being a great band, Queensrÿche is one of the best that's ever been! They really flowed naturally from Prog-type metal to super melodic ballad-y and back and still always sounded...right.

Eddie Jackson is one of those players that isn't super flashy, but this band would sound vastly different if someone else was playing bass. His technique and, more importantly, his TONE launched a truckload of bassists, myself included, down the path to that beautifully raspy "Spector Growl". The sound of his Spector NS-2 is so distinct and rich, that you probably couldn't get that tone with any other bass. A lot of players say that his tone was "better" on Mindcrime, and while I don't disagree with that, this song is what got me into Queensrÿche, Eddie Jackson, and to a large degree, Spector basses!

I usually try to come up with some fun facts about the covers I do. Other than the fact that this song is 2nd most played song on their setlist, there's not much to find. The basic message of the song is still very relevant, but the details are pretty dated. I love this song nonetheless...:-)
