As far as I can tell, the actual bassline is simplified from the original, but some of the original bassline elements are now played by different instruments.

The main bassline is based around E,D and A. The only major difference is the chrous that is just a variation of the E,D,A with a little run on it. This is played by bass on the original and synth (by the sounds of it) on the 1992 version.

Just playing the original version and noticed that Craigs bassline varies a little from the 1992 version in as much as the verses are played E, G, A. Listen to both versions and you'll see what I mean.

Don't think the 92 version differs very much.

Frankly it depends what you consider as the bassline on the 92 vers. - lots of stuff has migrated to synths (which frankly I regard as a DEPLORABLE policy of the modern sisters. But then I think that everything should be played on bass, including flute parts :D).

This is from a transcription of the original I made for Jim ages ago but somehow never managed to successfully send him

Bassline

Verse:

-------- -------- -------- --------
-------- -------- -------- --------
-------- -------- -------- --------
00000003 -3333335 -5555555 55555555

This part drops to single notes in synch. with the power chords played in the
first verse after the break ("In the black sky thunder sweeping
underground..."). Obviously this coincides with the single notes played during the
break.

Chorus:

-------- -------- -------- --------
-------- -------- -------- --------
77777777 57777777 00002233 ----0022
-------- -------- -------- 3333----

NB I'm sorry this doesn't line up quite well enough - I'm sure you'll all work it out, clever people that you are ;)
