Excellent bass tab book,

This review is from: The Beatles, 1967-1970 (Bass Recorded Versions) (Paperback)
I had mistakenly ordered this book, thinking I was buying the guitar tab book. The image/title for this page was updated after I had ordered. I decided to pull out the bass and give the book a try.
It's great stuff. It is accurate, but more importantly, the material is interesting enough to keep you busy and thinking about the cleverness of most of McCartney's basslines. A far cry from the earlier Beatles bass parts, which are all very rhythmically straightforward, these parts experiment a little. The bass part for With A Little Help From My Friends has a lot of nice notes swung at the end of measures. Strawberry Fields is a bit more normal than expected. Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da will challenge your endurance. These were a pleasant learning experience for someone who has been playing primarily guitar for about 10 years.

Recorded Versions?,

This review is from: The Beatles, 1967-1970 (Bass Recorded Versions) (Paperback)
I have transcribed many of the songs in this book before this book was available. I'm sorry to say there are quite a few problems with the transcription accuracy in this book on the songs I have looked at - wrong key changes, wrong time changes, and wrong notes. A Day in the Life is just one example. If you are a beginner, the inaccuracies will not bother you, but for advanced players it is frustrating to get a book labeled "Recorded Versions". I have bought many Hal Leonard books in the past and have not had the issues as with this one. If you are going to transcribe masterpieces - Do it right! I would recommend the yellow Beatles bass book as alternative to this one.

This review is from: The Beatles, 1967-1970 (Bass Recorded Versions) (Paperback)
Simply a great tool for nailing Beatle tunes on the bass. Book includes both standard notation and tab, as well as chord symbols for your six-stringer friends.
Great book - you will not be disappointed!
