Level 42 – ‘Sandstorm’ (LIVE)

'Sandstorm' is the opening track on the first album that Level 42 recorded - The Early Tapes. This is one of the band's best-known instrumental pieces and was a key part of their live set during their formative years. Written by Mark King and Wally Badarou, the track features some classic Mark King grooves, which have made it a very popular piece with bass players over the years. This tutorial will demonstrate how to play the three main sections of the live version of the track.
