Yea,, that whole composition is pretty fun to play on Bass too.
Some of it is pretty frigg'n fast though,, & I got to be limbered up pretty good,, plus having energy ,, to play it.
Sucks getting old,, but playing classic rock ect. on Bass,, always helps my cardio, head,, & joints,, & always makes me feel younger & better,, during & after playing ..
I try to get in one or two hrs. of it per week,, mostly on Fri. eves.
Usually do Soup & a baby asprin with my dinner,, before practice,, & that helps ''a lot'' !
Added,,
For those interested,, here's a list of my top 5 ''fav''. Bass players....
1- Dee Murray - Elton John
2 -John Paul Jones - Zep.
3- Gary Thane - Uriah Heep
4- Bob Babbit - Motown session player
5- Geddy Lee - Rush

Oh my goodness this will date me for sure.
Carowinds senior night 1975...Sugarloaf was the headliner band.
A relatively unknown band at the time, named Styx...was the opener !

1975 ,, & Styx probably just finished , or were still working on,, their ''all time'' greatest album ,- ''Equinox'',, which is also to this day,, one of the most epic & premier classic Rock albums ever made !
Dennis DeYoung is my all time fav. keyboardist,''from that time'',, & was frigg'n ''steller'' back then !
