Too Good Too Bad Bass

(ver. 1)
Yoko Kanno


Ok, this is kind of like a guideline. I've figured out the two main basslines,
there's alot of walking, which I find very hard to work out. So you're on
 your own for that.
There's also alot of what sounds like improv, which I also find hard to tab.
 Chances are, if you're trying to learn this song, you're a better bassist
 than me anyway, so you'll probably have less trouble than me working out
 the walking and improv.

Here we go.

(Note: this is my second tab, I think, so go easy.)


be able to help you.)

Tuning: Standard


Song starts w/ horn section then a drum roll. Then the baritone sax plays this:

(note: the "x" is a muted string pluck)

G|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|--13--11--13--x8-11-12-13--11--13-x8-11-12-13--------------------------------|
E|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|

7x and then on the eighth time the horns do a walkdown, something like this:

G|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|--13-12-11-8---------------------------------------------------------------|
E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|

Then a solo with some bass improv. which i'm not going to tab.

Then it goes back to the head (intro thing)

Then some solos and the bass goes like this:


G|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|-13--11--13--------------------x8-11-12-13--Repeat-------------------------|
E|------------x8-9-10--11--9--11---------------------------------------------|


That the basis of the song, but like I said, there are alot improv and walkdown bits 
are a bit out of my league.


Good luck on your quest.
