That's it! Very simple to play, but very funky stuff. Bear in mind, there is
no guitar on the CD, but nevertheless, it's a fun song to play. If you want
my interpretations of the rest of the song(the song is almost sixteen minutes
long), or if you have any other comments or questions, please e-mail me.
Cheers,
