original bass player on the album: none other then O(+> himself
original bass player in concerts at that time:  Dez

here is 1999 by The Artist from his Prince days, most of the Revolution play
on this album.
this song sounds better played an 8ve lower, which can b done by using an
upright bass setting on a digital mixer through an amp, but it really doesn't
make that much of a difference.

intro: 
this is how i play the intro.   if u went an extended intro add the 2nd part
on2 the end of the 1st.

    w +  h + q   s s  s s   w+w
w+q   q  h

E|    |-----------r- 3----3 |    |    |
A| 3  |--3----3-------1----| 3 | 3 |

2nd part:      w+h  + q   s  s s s

E|    |-----------r- 3---3 |
A| 3  |--3----3-------1---| 3 |--3--r--r |
                      

verse riff:
this is how i play the verse.

   q   s   e  e   s  e   s  s  s   s
D|------3--3-----3--3--1----------  |
