Mostly Excellent Bass...When It's There Karmeleaux
I really want to give this five stars because what you play is amazing.

It follows the standard Geddy Lee format of 'If I'm not singing, I'm rocking the bass.' The areas with no vocals are simply spectactular to play.

But there are some vocals sections focused on sustains, and more importantly there's two breaks which probably come to a total of over a minute of playing nothing.

What is there involves great movement involving a good amount of HO/PO scales, including an excellent rhythm in 7/8, I believe.

But as usual, there's something holding it back from being universal, this case most notably being dead space. And so I give my usual recommendation: If you can stand that, you'll have a blast. Otherwise, you probably want to stay away.

Again, feels more fun than the RB1 version. I always found the RB1 version awkward at several parts but this one wasn't. The ho/pos in the main section are now chords and overall there are more (and more conveniently placed) ho/pos. Solo is a about the same, it seems like the zig-zag is easier to hit. Definitely worth getting.

Better, and a little easier, than the RB1 version. No more double-bass hits in the last drum-solo-ish section of the song.
