I just transcribed the bass line to Frank Wilson's tune Do I Love You.
A tasty chunk of northern soul which one of my bands has decided to learn.
Sadly, as we play mostly parties and pubs, the audience want songs it knows and can dance and sing along with. So the pattern will be, learn it, pay to rehearse it, spend time getting it tight then play it to an indifferent public and eventually drop it.
No matter how often this happens they will continue to choose 'cool' unpopular music and quite frankly I am done arguing with them.
I'm 59. I've been through my 'cool' years, now I just want to entertain folk.
