This song has got such a great basspart! It’s got a really nice maingroove in the Intro and Verse, and there are wonderful melodic licks! Joe Puerta does his job well !

The ‘secret’ of playing the maingroove is in playing the first note (Bb = Bflat) not entirely as a quarter note, but just before the second count you can take a rest (breath). The eight note (Bb = Bflat) on the third count must be played short (staccato) to get the right feel. On the fourth count it’s tempting to play a percussive note before playing the F note. But I think it’s more ‘clean’ to not play anything at all on the sixteenth count of the fourth beat. I don’t promiss that I don’t hit a percussive note anywhere in the song, but it’s a challenge to not play that percussive note and keep the groove ‘clean’.

There are also some nice ghost notes combined with slides. Listen for instance at bar 31.

And my favorite licks are in bar 59 and 74. But above all: listen to the lick in bar 68-69. It’s such a wonderful melodic lick!!
