Mark King, maestro. Always awe struck at his musical ability, playing the bass like an absolute boss and lead vocalist at the same time, now that's talent. Was playing level 42 in the car with the window down, stopped at traffic lights and the guy in the car next to me called out " absolute tune, more volume", so happily obliged.
As a musician, to me is very very impressive to hear a band sounding like this live, and mostly after 30 years, wonderful musicians and incredible sound,
That's the result of living a clean life, their positive music has a lot to do with it...
I just commented on that. The sound is incredible!
Yes! I have never heard that live. In my 45 years not! ^^ Thats Awesome!
Exacto
I am pleased to read a real musician confirming the impression I have! I've never learnt to play and therefore am uncertain that my assessment is valid when I have the belief.
Can't tell what's more impressive: the bass groove or the fact that he can sing while playing it
Yes
Exactly.
And he can chew gum at the same time :-) Still pretty darned amazing.
Skilled musicain. His brain and motor fuctions have been linked from years of playing.
And it helps that he's firking excellent...;-)
i would more impress if the trumpet player sings while he plays the trumpet. :),
Mark is so on point with that bass, and singing and keeping time with the rest of the band. Pure talent.
I've played bass for over 50 years, Mark is INCREDIBLE! Jaco Pastorius, Larry Graham, Paul McCartney, Stanley Clarke, Verdine White, (a few others LTD , Slave, Lakeside) Mark IS in that class. My GOODNESS he's phenomenal!!!!!!!!
And Marcus Miller.
Damn, I'm so happy to be a kid of the 80s!!!!
I’m 15, and I actually wish I was born in the late 60s lol
@@koenfje I definitely agree with you, but I would want to be born at the beginning of the 60's
Born in the 50's but you cant beat good music
At the time that I was a teenager of the 80s, I wished to be alive in the 60s minus Vietnam.
Me too brother.
love this band and this song is awesome
My god, the bass playing on this is just sick. Top notch.
He is or was rated Top 5 at one time.
Mark King is Awesome on Bass Guitar. You should hear him play instrumental called Mr Pink WOW.
Always loved this baseline.. still loving it in 2023 since '85
Cannot believe he still sings like this. Man, you are a legend Mark.
Sounds exactly how he did in the 80s.....
🙌
He is just amazing, and still sooo hot !!!😂😂😂😂😂😂
This is one of my all-time turn the volume all the way up and jam Kind of songs. Loved it in 1986. Still love it in 2024❤
Mark King is a machine on that bass, and vocals also. Amazing!
Thoes words as you put it is Spot On Mark King is a Machine with the Bass and should be number 1 in the Bass charts and he isn't and I think it's wrong. Mark is a regular Bass Player in the Princess Trust House Band and why is that? Because He's The Best The Worlds Best and lastly Mark should be United By Her Majesty' The Queen and become Sir Mark King that Man fully Deserves It.
Of course!
Yes. He is amazing
Like Phil on the drums😊😊
Impressive - not an easy song to reproduce live and they pulled it off.
1980-2022 when Level-42 reaches Level 42...such inspiring driving and never boring music over all these years with exceptional musicians .
I was 22 when they started...and I'm still addicted.
Level 42 right now is on level 100, these guys are amazing
The 80's. The golden era. No social media. Just FANTASTIC music. Cheers
August 2023. I still love it👍
Crazy! These guys are still phenomenal! And Mark’s iconic slap bass rhythm is still the bomb! 👊😊🇨🇦
I’ve seen Level 42 more times than I can remember. Best band during my lifetime.
Holy Shit these guys still have IT ! Great band and fantastic memories of the 80s !
Can't decide who's more impresive- Mark on bass & vocals, or Mike on keyboard & falsetto vocals. Altogether- fabulous band!
There are actually two persons inside Mark’s body; one sings, the other plays the bass
Very cool description!
And a Drummer :)
actually 3. another one is drum😂
That's called professionalism and can be reached by hard work, millnnial ! That generation actually does its job and doesn't pretend to. Back then we didn't get paid for selfies. Your generation is always so damn sure about everything and throws with criticism like confetti but doesn't know how to do its job!
@@TheNewsAnchorYouTrust eerrr, what?
Gosh, you must be fun to be with in parties.
Wonderful! Still with the same sound and voice. ❤❤❤
What and learn kids , this is how it was done in the 80s . It was a total blast for music and fashion , I am defo going back again next time round !!
Breathtaking! Saw them in the early 80s at the University of Saarbrücken, Germany. Sounded then like in this video. Top!
So......this guy plays the bass this way and also is the lead singer for Level 42??¡¡¡¡¡ just....WOW.....every day we can discover such great things in the music world
Great songs stay great. Love this arrangement. Performers still killing it after 30, now 44 years.
Level 42 went to another level when they added drummer Pete Ray biggin. Great call Mark.
OMG! I feel so sorry for todays youth that doesn´t have real music!
@ 2020 who's still watching?
I am :-)
Yes, of course, fantastic music for eternity..................🥰🤞✌️🤘🎤🤘🎸🎶🎼
outstanding!!!
No preguntís huevás.

Keep coming back because this is sooo damn Good!!!
I Like That...... Thanks And RockON!
Marc King is the best bass popplayer...nobody plays like that with his thumb amazing!
Check out Stanley Clark...They are both great bass players. Mark rips it like a funk master.
I love his pops, they're a work of art alone.
Les Claypool of Primus plays a more jazzy/metal style of bass.
True and fair go to the drummer to, that machine gun blast between the verse and the back to the chorus was awesome
The band is tight - tight to (almost) perfection. Yet the drummer; a crazy drummer - genius he is. With Mark certainly. A band of the first class. Bravo!
Only a drummer could play the bass as good as Mark King. He is something there special indeed.
Not sure why I didn't get into this band in its day...a well oiled machine with PASSION
A 100% first class live performance.
The tempo here is faster than the studio recording, but not a single bass note was missed or out of time, and we still get solid vocals on top.
Mark King is not human. #AbsoluteLegend
I miss the way the world was back then.
Well, you’ve just seen and heard probably the greatest bass player of them all! Loved them since the eighties and still so. Amazing band!
Spring of 87 I used to blast this entire album on my car stereo. Such a great album. God, how I loved that girl I was dating that year.
Hits me in the gut harder every decade after decade.
A beauty of the 80’s. Everybody runs to dance floor when this one comes. Iconic Bass playing as well.
Omg...now i too old ...Tx Alloh give me long era
Fantastic. I was lucky to meet Mark King in the 80's. Awesome 👌
Astonishing. Thank you Level 42. Love you guys.
Level 42 opened for Steve Winwood in the US around 1987. What a class act! They dropped off the Winwood tour to play a sold-out show at Wembley. Good lads!
Bring Me a Lesson in Love
Proper Music. Real Musicians
Awesome this gives me goosebumps!
Powerful bassist! Singing while playing the base like that!?Insane!!😍
I am blown away at how good these guys are.
Yes!!!! They still sound incredible.
Most famous slapper in history and a legend.
I regret my lack of attention on Level 42 back in the 80s. What impressive musicianship.
Saw these guys in Birmingham 2 yrs ago... the drummer is unreal... the actual band musicianship is peerless.
Drummer is an absolute beast.
I have noticed that EVERY PERFORMANCE is incredibly well done. These guys are truly remarkable.
REMINISCING MY TEEN YEARS
I love this guys since I was a kid in the 80's
Level 42,lesson in love. the Great bassist. greatest hits of all time. new wave never fade ❤🎉🎉
Fantastic live versión.
Mark King the most underrated bass player & singer of all time I think not just 80s, but what a fantastic time to be a teenager and to get too hear & watch these types of videos when MTV was heck a good!
You can’t make music like this anymore. These types of bands and singers are a dying breed and that is damn scary to me.
A pint and a half of vodka brought me to this!
A bottle put my 16 year old son in the back of an ambulance!
What a brilliant, unique sound.
This song had all the great bands saying, dam I wish I wrote that. A bands, band!
I had the luck to go to diner with the guys and was invited in the tourbus, they are great artists to work with
One of the hardest bass-lines to play. The sheer endurance needed to keep that thump going for 5 minutes....
Probably one of the best bassists. Still powerful in 2019.
Listen Joe Dart of Vulfpeck...😉
@ , sorry man, but the Mark King's slap style of playing the bass guitar is unique 😎
@@Di-Revan Yeah!!!! dear Richie, agree with you ✌️🤘🤞🎸, Mark King is spectacular always!!!!.
I grew up my whole life thinking this bass part was sequenced, because surely no human can play this. Just wow.
Mark King is really special with a unique way of playing his bass guitar, but don't forget Phil Lynott, Victor Wooten, maybe Jacco Pastorius, all real good bass players with an unique talent.
Wow! The 80's would be complete without reaching Level42! 😎🤘
The Best to ever sing while playing complex bass lines.
Eles só melhoraram com o tempo.... Show incrivelmente magico!!!
That Bass line is so infectious 😀👍
The drums and bass are killer.
2021.......will always listen and watch this!!!!
i love his accent in slapping those bass strings. very powerful in constant tempo. he is god of bass
One of my favourite groups from my youth the fantastic level 42 Mark King simply brilliant miss the 80 s so much
"Lasson in love" is my favourite song...
I have no words, amazing x
Mark is a robot. Has to be. Dude is my favorite bass player ever. I never see him in best bass players on media. He freaking shreds it.
Mr Slap Bass himself. Legend.
Great !!!!.from France 🇨🇵
One instrument player in this whole thing! Thank you Siri!
Awesome!!! Thanks for uploading this!!
The bass, the voice everything in Level 42 it's perfection!!! I love you !! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Been a fan since day one
Wow! He still kind of sounds the same! I loved loved loved this group! I discovered them!😜 played them so much, most of my friends and family became fans!
Mark King plays like a smooth running Aston Martin!
my bass-hero of the 80ies.
bass-slapping, grooving and singing at one time together is absolute awesome !
Thank you so much Level 42 , I still love you 2021
An absolute genius on a bass guitar...
Si mal no recuerdo y la memoria no me falla, Mark toco junto a George Harrison y en el tributo a Freddie. Otro gran músico británico qué aun se mantiene y toca bien, una leyenda viviente de la música en general. Saludos cordiales desde Chile. 🤗🙋♂️🇨🇱
my cat's vet recommended this band to me and he said "pay attention to the bass line", when I heard it I was like "but this is a machine/synth bass line... oh wait--what??"
Hello is amazing such a legend
20 year olds love this
Don’t forget the tenor sax! That was smooth af
I love, love, Love Level 42. The first time I heard these guys, I was stationed in Bad Hersfeld Germany in early 80s!! I was completely blown away by their harmonies, grooves and then..Mark King's crazy funky bass lines...so cool.
Level 42 qué gran banda!! Mark King es un virtuoso del bajo que creó ese sonido característico de esta canción, y con un riqueza musical notable, un himno de los 80's. Recordando desde Perú 🇵🇪🇵🇪
What do you get when you take great lyrics, add awesome musicians, mix that up with amazing talent and a wicked groove? You get Level 42!
Mike is often overlooked. So entertaining. Brilliant stuff
Oh yes!!!!!! 💃💃💃 80s all round. Love you level 42. This is what I call actual MUSIC
The bass and everything else at the speed of light ... Masterpiece !!!
Great band 😎
Legend Mark 😏
Same sound,same voice...way back to the 80s.nothing's change❤️
