Come on with it
A quite straightforward 16's bassline.
Remember to mute the strings with the fingers on your left hand.
It's difficult to keep the tempo down when your right-hand speed is getting better.
Use a metronome! Complete arrangement as played by Tower of Power
available for purchase: 2 trumpets,
2 alto-saxophones, 2 tenor-saxophones, 2 trombones, 1 baritone-saxophone, bass,
piano/guitar and drums (alto-saxophone and trombone doubling the tenor-saxophone
parts). Send me an e-mail if you are interested.
