SONG: L.E.S. Artistes ARTIST: Santogold ALBUM: Santogold YEAR: 2008 TRACK: 1 TUNING: GDAE (standard) Another brilliant Santogold song, along with an amazing music video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kCeZzW54a2o The other bass tab out there has all the right notes, but this one has the distinctions on pitch. Octaves are important in this song, as there are literally just four notes in the whole song.
