Peaches en Regalia
Frank Zappa (who else?)
Bass by Shuggy Otis, from the album Hot Rats, 1969
Transcribed by John Fair (jfair@vt.edu)

Here's my best effort at the transcription of this one.  This is quite a tricky song for the bass, and I still can't play it confidently at full speed, but what the hell.  Enjoy!

4/4     104 bpm
