bassfunk Posted February 28, 2008 Share Posted February 28, 2008 Hi all I've got to learn canned heat by jamaroqai for my covers band. Does anyone have a transcription of it? even a chord chart would probably do. I know Simon Merrick has done some books but he appears to be negotiating a publishing deal so they're out of print. cheers people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mhuk Posted February 28, 2008 Share Posted February 28, 2008 There might be something on the stuart zender [url="http://www.stuartzender.net/forum/"]website[/url] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hit&Run Posted February 28, 2008 Share Posted February 28, 2008 I don't know how useful [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bceFnHUx8j8"]this[/url] will be; but it's a start. I hope. Failing that, you could just learn the dance that Napoleon Dynamite does to the song. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bassfunk Posted February 28, 2008 Author Share Posted February 28, 2008 I think it is. Maybe I should just make the keyboard player do it while I do the Napolean Dynamite dance! Looking at that video Dancing might be my only option. Oh well I can do it (I think!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mcgiver69 Posted February 29, 2008 Share Posted February 29, 2008 Why don't you try Simon Merrick's website he is Basschatter and has a book with most of Jamiroquai's transcriptions. Very good book and a top bloke Mr. Simon (I think that's new nickname) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually bought a flight case off him a while ago. SO may have his email address somewhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuart Clayton Posted March 8, 2008 Share Posted March 8, 2008 I have just transcribed a 16 bar chunk of this for a lesson I'm teaching next week on replicating synth lines - thought I'd post it on here in case anyone wants to check it out. The transcription starts at 3.57 CD time and captures the essence of this synth line. Add a touch of distortion, compress to oblivion, and you're on your way. You could also try playing it up an octave and use an octaver to fill in the low end. Enjoy! Stu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lenny B Posted March 9, 2008 Share Posted March 9, 2008 Did you see the transcription in Bass Player of 'Boogie On Reggae Woman'? That looked a challenge! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
