The Philosopher (ver 2) by Death
THE PHILOSOPHER
As recorded by Death
(From the 1993 Album INDIVIDUAL THOUGHT PATTERNS)
Words and Music by Chuck Schuldiner (R.I.P.)
Transcribed by Andy Aledort and Matt Scharfglass
Tuning:
Low->High
(D G C F) - Fretless Bass: Finger Picking
Bassist: Steve DiGiorgio
I'm pretty sure you all know Steve DiGiorgio is one of the best Bassist in
the world. I recommend you listen to all of this album and HUMAN by Death
along with the rest of the albums Steve DiGiorgio is in to get an idea of
how badass he is. This song isn't too difficult to play but the Bass fill is
a bit tricky in my opinion and the Bass solo at the end is fast. But overall
this song is fun to play!
If you have any suggestions or any comments feel free to contact me at:

Please include the name of this song in the title. Remember a simple "thanks" goes a long way!
