"Love Plus One" by Haircut 100--bassline

A cheerful flashback (from 1982)...actually, I had just heard this song just shortly before I did this tab (cuz obviously, being the 80's freak I am, I would've put it up a looong time ago). It's on many 80's compilations, & oddly, I heard it on the movie "Seven", & it's on the soundtrack. For a 3 1/2 minute song, the bassline's pretty involved. Ya know tha drill, just listen for the rhythm.
