STIR IT UP
                        
                        by Bob Marley and the Wailers

The track is of Legend, a compilation of all the very best Marley 
songs.    

This is the first time I have tried to tab an entiry tune.
Luckily for me, it only consist of two riffs.
So basicly the whole song is repeated again and again.

But the bass only keeps a steady rythm, which is very important in 
reggae. It should be easy to figure out the exact timing,
I have just transcribed the notes.

I think it's a pretty cool tune, myself being a bassplayer and all.

My band is SevenOhZero and we come from Denmark.

Anyway, here is Stir It Up by Bob Marley And The Wailers:
