Song: The Last One Alive
Artist: Vast
Bass Player: Thomas Froggart
Album: Music For People
Tabbed by: John Prather (jnprather@aol.com)

Well here's a song i've been meaning to work out completely that I saw
so here it is!... This is one of my favorite basslines of all time. The
feel that Mr. Froggart has on this and the rest of this album is extraordinary.
In this song in particular he created a very expressive line that on the
surface looks very plain, but contains alot of complexity when played
with the feel and articulation that he uses. I really think this is *VERY* close
to accurate... I tabbed redundant sections only to show slight variations...
the only spots which I think may have mistakes are the places
where a note such as a Low E could be played on the E string or the B string.
After careful study I think he's using the low B to play that note. Also, in
the parts where he is riding the root notes, he may not ALWAYS be playing straight
8th notes, but may skip a note here and there... although I think I have it pretty
much the way he plays it.. As usual, feel free to email me with any comments
or corrections, i'll try and have some more Vast tabs up soon. Enjoy!
