Bass Playalong - What Becomes of the Broken Hearted

http://www.how-to-play-bass.com

This is a playalong I did - although only with some keys and guitar - of the bass line for What Becomes Of The Broken Hearted that's featured in my free ezine in Oct 09. Subscribe in Oct and you'll get free access to it.

And yes there's a timing skip at around 0.50 - because my bloody mobile phone rang!

[willbeckles]

is this standard tuning?

@willbeckles No - you have to detune your bass by a half step. So Eb, Ab, Db and Gb. (If you listen to the original recording you can clearly hear the low open string in the first few bars....reference to your bass will tell you that this is Eb and not E. From a historical perspective, it's interesting as from what I've read Jamerson wasn't known for detuning).
