Title: The Sinister Minister
Artist: Béla Fleck and the Flecktones
Tabbed By: Stephen Whitehead (March 15, 2003)
Concact: [E-mail: StephenWhitehaed@cox.net]  [AIM: TrueTenorMan]
Notes: I'm a beginner bassist, so I took out a lot of the
       harder stuff (like the palm mutes between the riffs).
       It's just the basic riffs.

You can repeat these riffs throughout the song instead of the hard stuff,
and it sounds just fine.  As for the bass solo; you're on your own!  ;-)
