Ska Bass Lesson: Dave Marks, Skattershot Intro

Skattershot is a track I wrote for my Style File Column in issue 48 of Bass Guitar Magazine. There's a transcription of it in the magazine and a series of video lessons here on YouTube.
At http://davemarks.com/?page_id=762 you can hear the full song, get a free transcription of the bass solo and if you like it, you can download the full track and a bass-less playalong track for ony £1!

Your explanation of the parts was good, but you didn't show how they relate to eachother. I'm very interested in ska bass and this taught me nothing because you didn't show how all that stuff goes together. At the end, there should be a part where you play all of it together slowly, then up to speed so noobs like me can learn properly.
