Song: It`s Too Funky In Here
Artist: James Brown
Album: Dead On The Heavy Funk (1975-83)
/
This song is funk-ay! If it doesn`t get your hips
shakin`, they must be broke!
It`s in dropped D tuning.
This bass line is actually fingered, but the synth
follows the bass giving it a slap/pop sound. It`s
tabbed with the slap/pop notation if you`re playing
it without a synth.
