Don't Worry....

[WebParrot (s2)]

Just listened to an NPR (program "1A") piece on Bobby McFerrin's "Don't Worry, Be Happy". [Excellent piece, and suggest you listen to it on the NPR website.]

Anyhow, his vocalized bass line is a significant part of the happiness. And, it made me want to try it, but on my bass uke. (No way I could voice it!)

Before I go digging via DuckDuckGo search... does anyone know of an existing resource, in the key he sings, plays, hums, and beat-boxes?

Acapella to a bass line? I have no idea, but are you on facebook? Go to the "Ubass Freaks" page and ask your question, there are many talented bass players on there that may be able to help.

Thanks, I’ll give them a look. I’m also looking at tabs from Bob Marley‘s version. Not the same key, but it at least gives me some clues.

Let us know if you find anything.
