Caron Alain - Finger Prints Bass Tab

Here's a Jazz groove from Caron, which really shows his arranging skills (it's
not just Jaco who can write full charts!). Basically watch out on timings, and
remember that he is playing a simple part, so don't take it over the top. This
is another 4-string transcription for a 6-string song, so some notes are raised
an octave.

Section A is just for the horns.
