# # #Song: This Train Don't Stop There Anymore # #Artist: Elton John # #Album: Songs of the West Coast # #Tabbed by: James Pucyk (pucyk_james@hotmail.com) # #------------------------------------------------------------------------------# #Elton and Barry Turpin have come up with some gems over the years and this one# #is no exception. Elton John's bassist I think has been with him since the # #early days and he comes up with some great shit. The thing that caught me # #about this bassline is the taseful nature of it, which I guess is the kind of # #playing style I'm trying to adopt as completly as possible. This is a great # #example of a bassline which is melodic and builds with an equal amount of # #emotional fury as the other insturments but holds the rhythm but adds in- # #valuably to the melody. # # # # ENJOY # #------------------------------------------------------------------------------#
