Is there a list of songs which Hooky uses a 6 string bass? — Forum Archive

JD and NO.

I can only think of a few off the top of my head: Heart And Soul Age Of Consent Dreams Never End Blue Monday

NOT Age of Consent

A lot of footage I've seen from the Movement songs has Hooky on the 6 string, even though he doesn't need it.

From what I can tell:

Chosen Time Doubts Even Here (probably a few more on Movement) Subculture State of the Nation 1963 (really high bit near the end) As It Is When It Was (again, not sure why he needs the 6-string) Let's Go Elegia Fine Time Every Little Counts Paradise Too Late We All Stand Your Silent Face Heart And Soul Dreams Never End Blue Monday

Cheers. Any idea on the riff for AoC? Didn't Re: Order or Digital play it with a 6 stringer?

22 Apr 2006, 07:47

I'd have also said Lonesome Tonight and maybe Leave Me Alone too.

Probably because it was convenient at the time. No wasting time swapping instruments. ;)

The riff for AoC is a piece of piss. I'm email it to you.

Nah, they're on the four string.

I missed out Shellshock. And This Time of Night. Possibly In A Lonely Place as well.

Once again, cheers. I thought IALP was on a 4 string. There was a video on this site but I can't remember it.

Is this the video?

I can just make out the 6 string

Real Media is the devil. I don't have it on this laptop. Curse you, Spotnick and your love for Real Media.

Rock Around The Clock, 1984, IALP. Click on the thumbnail. Hope it's clear enough:

Heart And Soul Passover (we think - photo evidence in An Ideal For Living shows Hooky playing a bass chord at ULU, can only have been in Passover) A Means To An End - possibly

In A Lonely Place

Chosen Time Doubts Even Here Denial Dreams Never End

Procession

We All Stand Your Silent Face Too Late Blue Monday

Elegia This Time Of Night Subculture Let's Go

As It Is When It Was Every Little Counts Paradise State of the Nation Shellshock

1963

Fine Time

Nothing else was 6 string that I can think of.

World was a 5 string MusicMan Stringray

Digital always play everything with a 5 string, as the bass player has a thing about a low B. :evil4:

22 Apr 2006, 10:14

Cheers again. And nice photo with the gay sperm amp. :evil4:

22 Apr 2006, 13:22

you can add:

Cries And Whispers Hurt

...to that list.

No-one can be sure about 'Too Late' since it's really easy to play on a 4 string and they've never played it live.

22 Apr 2006, 15:45

I felt Too Late had the sound of the six string, it's purely speculation but I have a feeling

Hurt on the six string? Might have to check my Barcelona 84 footage but I'm not sure.

22 Apr 2006, 19:48

Cheers, never heard Too Late, what is it from? Wasim, hopefully I'll see you at a Digital/Re: Order gig sometime. :D Is it possible to bring some more bootlegs to the gig? I'm sure the cd you sent will last a long time.

22 Apr 2006, 20:20

How long are you going to be at that University address?

Not sure when I'll next be over in the UK to be honest, I might have to take a quarter off in autumn.

23 Apr 2006, 05:02

I move out of campus 1st July, I think. Got a contract with a house on that date, so should be living there then.

23 Apr 2006, 07:36

Marc let me know what I sent you on that first cd. Don't want any duplicates.

Not sure about Too late?? Every Little Counts is 4 string.
