Band: THE BETA BAND
Song: THE BETA BAND RAP!
Album: THE BETA BAND
Tabbed by: Craig G Telfer
This song is in three parts: BARBERSHOP QUARTET, HIP-HOP and ROCK 'N' ROLL.
This is the BARBERSHOP QUARTET part. I am sure there are other notes here,
but I cannot pick them out.
G|-----------------|-----------------|
D|-----------------|-----------------|
A|-5-5-4-4-6-6-2-2-|-5-5-4-4-6-6-2-2-|
E|-----------------|-----------------|
HIP-HOP part. This is pretty simple, and sounds like The New Pollution by
Beck. It uses some sort of effect, for I cannot recreate them on my Bass.
G|--------------|--------------|
D|---8----6---6-|---8----6---6-|
A|-----6h8-6h8--|-----6h8-6h8--|
E|-6------------|-6------------|
The ROCK 'N' ROLL section. Pretty simple as well.
G|-----------------|-----------------|
D|-------2-5-2-----|-------2-5-2-----|
A|-0-4-5-------5-4-|-0-4-5-------5-4-|
E|-----------------|-----------------|
The ROCK 'N' ROLL part when the chord changes. Very easy.
G|-----------------|-----------------|

A|-------2-5-2-----|-------2-5-2-----|
E|-0-4-5-------5-4-|-0-4-5-------5-4-|
The parts are repeated again and again for how many times, I do not know.
To understand the song, play it slowly then pick up speed as you improve.
Listen to the CD to hear where the parts are, and how to play them (speed,
rhythm etc.)
This song is from THE BETA BAND, not as good as THE 3EP's, but still
brilliant. It uses a man called Kingsley on vocals.
If anybody likes THE BETA BAND like me, or has any corrections, comments
absolutely anything related to music, the bass, or current affairs and
amusing anecdotes you can e-mail me on: charlatan_3@hotmail.com
Cheers, man

This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official BETA BAND tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
