The Beatles, 1967-1970 (Bass Recorded Versions) Reviews:
Excellent - Must have for the Beatle-Bassist-Fan! 
2008-04-15 - Simply a great tool for nailing Beatle tunes on the bass. Book includes both standard notation and tab, as well as chord symbols for your six-stringer friends.
Great book - you will not be disappointed!
Excellent bass tab book
2007-06-07 - I had mistakenly ordered this book, thinking I was buying the guitar tab book. The image/title for this page was updated after I had ordered. I decided to pull out the bass and give the book a try.
It's great stuff.
It is accurate, but more importantly, the material is interesting enough to keep you busy and thinking about the cleverness of most of McCartney's basslines.
A far cry from the earlier Beatles bass parts, which are all very rhythmically straightforward, these parts experiment a little.
The bass part for With A Little Help From My Friends has a lot of nice notes swung at the end of measures. Strawberry Fields is a bit more normal than expected. Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da will challenge your endurance.
These were a pleasant learning experience for someone who has been playing primarily guitar for about 10 years.
Hard one. 
2005-06-19 - If you are an advance bass player and you like serious stuff, you can start learning some tunes of one of the most important bass man on earth, Paul McCartney. But if you are a beginner and you are practicing the bass, be carefull. The bass lines in some of the beatles tunes are really very though to learn and follow. The book in fact is like any other book with the same chords for guitar and sheet music for piano. I recommend if you like good music, to practice and learn from Pink floyd's album The Wall (easy to follow). But returning to this book, is good if you are advance. Not good for beginners.
