Transcription (pretty close to the recording) of the Bassline as performed by John DeMaso with an impressive band called Jukin' Bone and this song is from their stupendous LP, Way Down East, released in 1972.
*Note: Listen to my Nightcrawler v.2 video for a more accurate transcription:-)
I believe John DeMaso played a Gibson EB-3 bass on this recording, so I turned down the treble on my Fender bass and here we go!
I created a two (2) page transcription all in standard notation only on my Finale v. 27 software. and am reading it.
I dedicate this song to Jim Brewster who recommended this unknown band to me yesterday. And so I checked out some of their songs and chose to first do a cover of this one. Enjoy!

***A big thanks to legendary JEFF BERLIN, whose BASS MASTERY sight-reading practice packages I often use to maintain competency at sight-reading standard notation. (Even though I've been reading music for 52 years, it is still important to "practice").

My bass is a self-customized This bass is a Fender Jazz Bass Roadworn model made in Mexico in 2012 -- I bought it used in 2014. I acquired the oval tuners to give a real vintage look...and...
**This bass's electronics: A few years ago my expert guitar luthier, Luigi Spezzacatena of southern Italy, swapped out the standard Fender capacitor and replaced it with a genuine vintage 1960 Sprague tone capacitor (value = 0,1mdf) to the electronics, so now this bass has got an even more authentic vintage Fender Jazz Bass tone.
The strings are seven (7) year old Ernie Ball Slinky Medium gauge long scale Flatwound strings.
Bass Guitar neck pickup 9, bridge pickup 9, Bass Tone 0.
Marshall B25 MK II amp settings: Bass 5 o'clock, Mid 4 o'clock, Treble 2 o'clock
