Soul Kitchen - The Doors

Tabbed By: born21239

There are two basslines on this song.
The most prominent (top half of the notation) is played by
session musician Larry Knechtel on an electric bass guitar with
a pick, and the other (bottom half of the notation) is played by
Doors keyboardist Ray Manzarek on a Fender Rhodes Piano Bass. For
the best effect, play his line with your fingers. You can transpose
the strings however you like, as his bassline is not originally
written for the bass guitar. This is just the way I prefer to play 
it and think sounds best.
Listen to the recording to pick up on the exact timbre of the notes.

This is the whole song from beginning to end.
Unlike the rest of the album, the electric bass suffers more than
the piano bass on this song. Both basslines are locked in on one
track so this tab is not perfect, but it is at least 95% correct
for Knechtel's part and 99% for Manzarek's part.
