Song: Zoot Suit Riot

Album: Zoot Suit Riot
Bassist: Dan Schmid

This song is basically a clinic on Swing-style walking bass lines.

Dan Schmid has a very unique approach to bass playing in general 
and you should use this to your full advantage. 
Try and observe his left-hand/right-hand relationship- 
he has a subtle pull-off/hammer-on effect during certain sections.

Once you learn this bass line, you~Rll understand what I mean.

Good luck and have fun!
