Hey Now! I am teaching you how to play Nautilus by Bob James. This is an amazing song that has been sampled by a lot of hip hop artists including Ghostface Killah (where I first heard it, A Tribe Called Quest, Slick Rick, Eric B. and Rakim, Run-DMC and many more. In fact, if you think of some others please share them in the Comments.

It's so funky and fun to play and there is a lot of room for improvisation as well. There is a solo section with a lot of room for improvisation, If you need help with the improv part I have linked you to a few other videos I have that explain how, what to do in those sections.

Have fun with this one. It is really fun and a great one to pull out at Jam Sessions
