Groovy track. The bass is in fact programmed but works fine on a bass guitar or preferably a
double bass (for the best sound and that cool squeek effect). Two bass lines, with slight
variation, but easy to adlib for more fun.

Not as complicated as it looks. Quickly bend the F#/Gb, then slide up to the A and back.

These two notes are the only ones played during the solo thing. Use them however you
like as long as it sounds nice.


Have fun!


Legend:

h = hammer-on
p = pull-off
^ = bend
/ = slide up
\ = slide down
w = whole note
w.= dotted whole note (1.5 times)
h = half note

(don't take my poor notation for the truth, though..)
