Hey thanks for the link stu. Do you have any sheet music/ tab of your song Laura? Thats probably my favortie song that you do.

I do have the sheet music somewhere, but it's going in a book that'll be out next year sometime!

I'm glad you like the song though, thanks for the compliment.

Cheers

Alright, well I guess I'll have to transcribe it myself then, it should only make me better

Is there any hints you can giv eme about how to play it? I'm about to start learning it, so it owuld be helpful i fI knew the basic chords or techniques. Is it played on a four string? Do you use tapping to play it?

It's played on a standard 4-string bass, tuned EADG, using two handed tapping. The intro is fingerstyle with harmonics. For the main section the chords are Bbmaj7, Am7, Gm7, Eb, F. Then the next section is Gm7, F, Eb, D7b9 - if i recall correctly that is! The technique is the same as Victor Wooten uses for Overjoyed, Norwegian Wood etc.

Good luck,
Stu
