Sabra’s Bass

This was originally an unreleased Unplugged Performance by Pearl Jam due to the fact that Eddie Vedder is seen here writing Pro Choice down his arm during the performance. Or, maybe it has something to do with him falling off his stool, I don’t know. At 2:19 in, Jeff Ament takes off on his bass solo as he stands on the drum platform. Awesome little video that I had never seen prior to today. Thanks to Matt S. for giving me the tip on this one!

I have added the bass tabs for Porch to the website. I am currently learning this song, and thought I would share. It has been a pretty easy learn, but the pace of it has been my challenge. Jeff Ament plays it on a 5 string but it is very easy to play on a 4 string. The beginning has no bass, but the bass slowly makes its way into the song. It’s a very progressive song, music energy and power continuously builds up throughout this song. Check it out!
