Hi,
Another bass tab from the old classic album "Jazz Funk".
This song is great and has a good bass line which is very
repetitive throughout the song but none the less is very intresting
to play as you can stick all of your minor scales fills in there.
Play it slowly at first to get the feel of it as it is quite jumpy
and fast in places.
As the bass line is pretty simple (once you get going) I will also
tab out some fills. Listen to the record to find out where these
fills occur.
The song is also good for using dead notes(X)in aswell.
These symbols <7> will represent harmonics.

Here you can use sliding vibrato
or hammers and pulls.
This is basically the whole song so now I will put in a few
of the fills used but do experiment with your own.
Most of the fills are played toward the end of the song.
