_ _ _ _ _ Hi, it's Paul Schmidt again with some more Steppenwolf for you.
So I'm Gustav Morev _ _ or
_ _ _ John Morgan.
I'm gonna do Hootchy Cootchy Man for [Am] you.
Again the standard
_ fingering that we're talking about in previous videos that if this is in the key of A _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [Gm] _ [A] Those _ notes [E] are the key notes [Gm] in this [A] type of music _ _ _ _
[G] And this this particular tune in my to my ear [Bbm] is the most gorgeous bass sound that I wish I could copy
_ _ Especially when it goes down to the low E
But [Eb] this is the way things are [Bb] recorded in those days
_ with several different bass players Nick Segnick was coming after _
_ _ _ [Bm] _ _ _ _
Bass sound was always pretty consistent and I attribute that
_ Not to the only to the players but also [Bb] to the producer which would have been Gabriel Meckler in these days who also produced
Three Dog Night, for example _ _ and his
_ _ Engineer Paddler and Cooper they have this particular sound in mind that you don't hear anymore
If [Db] you go out and play this with this type of sound in a band today
[E] You're being told that you're too loud
And what you're really hearing is tone and people are not used to hearing bass tone _
_ _ _ _ So, _ _
[A] _ um, _ this is _ watch carefully I use the [D] open string a lot
_ _ _ _ _ [E] _
_ _ _ [A] _ _ _ [Bb] _ _
_ _ [A] _ _ _ Go for the town go for the sound excuse me _
_ _ _ _ [D] _ [C] _ [Dm] _ _
_ [Am] _ [D] _ Watch that fingering pattern when it goes to the D [Dm] chord _ _ _ _ _ _ that same [Gm] pattern.
[A] It's the
[Cm] _
_ [G] _ first three books of the New Testament _
[Am] _ _ [D] _ _ [A] _ _ _ _
So here we go
[C] And _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
again, I don't want I want you to pay attention to the bass.
You [Am] already have recording of this song _
I want you to actually hear the bass _ _ _
[Dm] _ _ _ [C] _ _ [Em] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Am] _ _ _ _ [D] [Am] I don't want you to pay attention to the bass
Start with the a up _ [D] here
_ [A] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Bm] _ _
[A] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Watch _ _ _ _ _ how I'm doing the strength _ _ [D] _ [Am] _ _
[A] you want the open string in this _ case _ _ Well _ _ _

_ _ [G] _ Now _ [D] _ [A] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [D] _ _ [A] _ _ _ _
the second word pretty much the same _ _ _ you should stay at home _
_ _ _ When you do something different it sticks out _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
And _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
