But I shall look at your suggestion of time sig change.

There jolly well are!! That's not all - look https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two_hundred_fifty-sixth_note

In fact it may be worse than that! I wonder if the bar doesn't slow throughout its length Wait a cotton picking minute. Is it triplets???? No no no not the right amount of notes, sorry.

Hello folks, I am undertaking another transcription. I had imagined it might be a nice simple one. Oh, how swiftly hubris is punished. Well, by bar 20, that's how soon. It Must Be Love, the Madness version. I have happily picked my way through the minefield of the timing, only to find bar 20 is shorter than all the others. I mean by that, it is 1.623 seconds long while every other bar lasts 1.709 seconds (timings are approximate but as close as I could get them) This is roughly equivalent to one and a half demisemiquavers. I assume this means the tempo is different for this bar from the rest of the song. I can work out the tempo for that bar, but how do I show this in the score please? Here is the bar as I worked it out it. But there is simply too much room at the end !

It Must Be Love. Madness version.

Yes! I was thinking the same. The bass player should be the coolest person in the band but not this time.

Just finished work on this

Maybe slipping into country rock territory?

🤦🏼‍♂️

Doing a bit of recording today but only on a tablet to watch for mistakes in my playing so sound quality ain't all that. I'll try to set up something better later.

I got some abuse for trying a similar thread because I used a more jokey title like cr*p songs you actually enjoy playing. It seems no matter how patently uncool and dreadful something is, someone somewhere will defend it.

Don't know the song at all but man I love the bass line. Very engaging chap as well. We can learn so much from these people.

God that's tedious isn't it? Guitarists noodling away. Where is the godamm bass? No more government subsidies for guitar effects

Can't stop listening to that Gary Clark Jr track. Just awesome.

Yep Down Down and Caroline on my list always glad of more

Great story, thanks for sharing.

Good to see you Sven. Wilkommen.

exactly what I'm after, driving bluesy footstomping stuff

So beautifully done. You have a close up?

Just talking about how lovely white / tort / rosewood is on a bass. Mine is more white white. I love this aged creamy white though. Beautiful bass thanks for sharing.

I filled some of my day gazing at mine. Its a striking combination.

Thanks guys

Fancy a bit of a boogie today. Thinking AC/DC (Bon Scot Era ) ZZ Top (pre pop era) that kind of thing. Suggestions of fun stuff to play along with?
