norvegicusbass Posted May 13, 2012 Share Posted May 13, 2012 I am finding it impossible to find any tabs or transcriptions to "Thinking Of You " by Sister Sledge played by the genius Bernard Edwards. Anyone know where I can find it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spike Posted May 13, 2012 Share Posted May 13, 2012 It's in Stuart Clayton's book - Nile Rodgers & Bernard Edwards: Funk & Disco Grooves For Bass & Guitar. See the Bassline Publishing section in Theory & Technique. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
artisan Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 it's actually a pretty simple yet beautiful bass line,my old funk band used to do that song,i couldn't find any tabs for it either but learned it by ear pretty quickly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fat Rich Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 This might help you find the notes, it's pretty simple to work out but fun to play: [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TKQV8h81bEM&feature=related"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TKQV8h81bEM&feature=related[/url] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
norvegicusbass Posted May 14, 2012 Author Share Posted May 14, 2012 Thanks everyone for your replies. Yeah I agree it sounds a simple bassline but deceptively so I think. Just surprised that a song with a bassline like that doesn't have tabs all over the place. Will look into that book Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fat Rich Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 Nope, I'd need to practice a lot more often to play that well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
