The Chicken (Bass/TAB Only: TAB Notation / Chords NOT Included )-Jaco Pastorius

Bass Score: "The Chicken" by Jaco Pastorius (TAB Only / No Chords)

This is a professional bass score for the legendary funk-jazz standard "The Chicken," famously performed by Jaco Pastorius, featuring TAB notation only.

This transcription is meticulously based on the performance from the "Twin Live in Japan 1982" album. (Note: "Soul Intro" is not included in this score.)

By focusing exclusively on the TAB staff, this simple layout allows you to dive straight into the performance intuitively.

It is the perfect choice for those who want a clear and straightforward view of the fingerings to master Jaco’s iconic grooves, rapid-fire phrasing, and ghost notes efficiently.

I have paid close attention to the layout to ensure it is easy to read and play for your practice sessions.
