Free Ride by Edgar Winter Group This song is from the album "They Only Come Out at Night" (which was probably a refernce albinos, being that they cannot be in the sun - Edgar Winter, of course, is an albino). people know this song as being performed by Rick Derringer (bass and vocals) as a member The Edgar Winter Group, however, this song was actually written and recorded (bass) Dan Hartman. Fantastic bass line - have fun! Tabbed by: BASSteve Tuning: EADG Time signature: 4/4 r = rest (listen for duration) / = slide (low to high) ()= note inside parenthesis not plucked or hammered on {}= note inside pointed parenthesis still ringing from previous measure ||= measure gets repeated (see number of times above measure, e.g. 4x) *My tabs are meant to be read in conjunction with listening to the song. In other words, there are no specific notations to account for note/rest duration. However, you will find that I've made an attempt to strategically space the notes and rests within their respective measures in order to represent the appropriate durations.
