The Smiths - Accept Yourself Andy Rourke Bass part. - Video
PUBLISHED: Oct 01, 2010
DESCRIPTION: This is the bassline to the wonderful The Smiths song Accept Yourself, which was the B-Side to This Charming Man and also featured as a John Peel session on Hatful Of Hollow (1984). I learnt it all by ear and mainly from the Peel session version so there are bound to be bits that are incorrect but I think mainly it's about right.
The video is sadly slightly out of focus for some reason but you can still see enough to tell that I am not a bass player! My technique is awful and I am fully aware but I just love playing Andy Rourke basslines!
