Track: Easy On Me
Album: 30
Listen carefully for timings, there are a few subtle variations the recording bassist Greg Kurstin plays
if you listen closely to the track e.g. playing octave notes and ‘hammer on’ licks (I have tried to
include some of these in brackets to guide).
Simple but fun song to play, I hope this is as accurate as possible to original track.
