STRANGE BREW from the CREAM album 'Disraeli Gears' (1967)
BASS TAB
Issued by the famous CREAM trio made by Eric CLAPTON, Jack BRUCE ( bass player)
and Ginger BAKER (drummer), this surely is one of the pillars on which Eric CLAPTON
built his fame. And the engine starts at the first stroke !
There are six verses each of them consisting of the usual 12 bars.
1. Intro verse
2. 1st sung verse
3. 2nd sung verse
4. solo verse
5. 3 rd sung verse
6. outro verse
The bass was another story to tab : the riffs vary constantly
and you must listen very carefully to what Bruce is doing !
Only in the 2 last verses do we find a steady pattern.
You can download the full AUDIO MP3 demo from the URL at the top of this
document in which I approximately played the voice at the end of the left
channel for you to be able to check were you are when reading
the tab (not sure it's a success) !
The bass plays a real solo all along.
Legend:
h : hammer-on
p : pull-off
/ : slide up
\\ : slide down
