[quote name='Stickman' timestamp='1490147986' post='3262685'] As promised, here is my transcription of the unison line: [attachment=241304:A Remark You Made.png] *Diamond shape note heads indicate artificial harmonics [/quote] Thanks for that. I have just had a good listen and yes, you are correct. Some double tracking going on as well (unless it's a Bass Synth). In the second bar of your chart, there are some long root and inversion Bass notes that enter (Gmi7 onwards...) Also, did you catch the sneaky (9th) Bb harmonic on the second beat of the third bar ? Things I haven't really noticed before. [quote name='Bilbo' timestamp='1490167496' post='3262700'] I posted the whole transcription here seven years ago. [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/83558-a-remark-you-made/page__fromsearch__1"]http://basschat.co.u...__fromsearch__1[/url] [/quote] You just cleared up a mystery in my household. My older boy started to learn this Weather Report tune a few weeks ago. He was using this/your chart for a guide. I hadn't a clue were the PDF came from. Now I know. A seven year old download !!

[quote name='Conan' timestamp='1490176702' post='3262804'] I hate these thread titles!! I automatically assume that the person referred to has died! [/quote] You might want to sit down. I have some bad news. George passed away in 2013. Yeah, a great track.

[quote name='spectoremg' timestamp='1490119349' post='3262364'] They don't sound like harmonics on the studio version. I'd be very surprised if he didn't play with tunings a lot. I know he did it for Portrait of Tracy. [/quote] Haha....you beat me to it.

[quote name='Stickman' timestamp='1490114593' post='3262293'] Hi Eric, I'm guessing you mean the unison line with the saxophone? The notes higher than the Eb are played as artificial harmonics, you can see it in great detail in the clip below: http://youtu.be/F02mBkBoMQw?t=1m42s By the way, no bends - all articulations are either slides or hammer ons. [/quote] I just to listened to the live version you posted. It's slightly different from the studio version? On the studio version he doesn't play the unison harmonics line after he hits that top Eb. Well, he does play a long harmonic, with a pizz Eb (x2) underneath. Unless I am hearing it wrong (on my iPad), then my apologies, and carry on... (I am drivelling on about the first unison section, at around 02:00).

I thought the top note was an Eb? Accessible on any 34" Fender, so no need for an Octave Pedal. It's been a long time since I played this, but I don't seem to remember running out of frets or lines on my Fender Jazz Bass. Just been having a listen. Apart from the lovely playing from a Jaco, I forgot what a terrific solo it was from Wayne Shorter. It's funny how you miss things over the years. Just noticed the harmony line that Jaco plays along with his Melody at 04:22. http://youtu.be/boNCY0Ai44M

[quote name='chris_b' timestamp='1489965151' post='3261192'] No Particular Place To Go. . . . played today as the encore. I loved every second. Also this week sees the 50th anniversary of Purple Haze. So we played Fire. Close enough! [/quote] What, No 'White Cliffs Of Dover' ? The Dame is 100 Today...

Do these two by Frank Z count ? Totally out there ... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PSdkPMc7aEo http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mpNn1nht0_8

Yeah, he is great. I like the duo he did with Gilson Peranzzetta. Actually, that was the first time I heard him. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dx3Xn4gkv_g[/media]

Roll Over, Beethoven. Another great is on the way. I guess, at some point in our gigging lives, we have all played a Chuck Berry song. Which is quite remarkable. R.I.P.

Always willing to listen to anything associated with JP. One of my favourite musicians. This is lovely. Very well played, Ben.

[quote name='Downdown' timestamp='1489834316' post='3260166'] A high heart rate alone is not necessarily a good thing. Stress can do much the same thing. [/quote] He was playing 'The Birdie Song' at the time.So yes, it was more than likely stress.

Andrew really does know his movies... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8XGHNwk8eiQ

[quote name='Paul S' timestamp='1489659574' post='3258675'] Big King Louis and the Barockettes, playing a selection of French 17th century rock and roll ditties. [/quote] Remember them well. Also, don't forget 'Vivaldi and his Venetian Swingers'. They were real Baroque & Roll.... Back then they used to throw their Cart Keys onto the table.

[quote name='skankdelvar' timestamp='1489595836' post='3258263'] Baroque I always forget which came first: Rococobilly or Baroqueabilly. [/quote]

It's down to you. Always come in on time - Never late. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i-1KtSOwLXE&feature=share

Done. Good luck with your venture.

When is a (middle C) C3 not a C3? When it's a C4.... Us (Yamaha) Cubasers know the answer. http://computermusicresource.com/midikeys.html

Yes, certainly the way to go and really does make workflows a breeze. Although our Studio is just for Composing media cues, we found the TouchOSC fantastic for midi work (Cubase) Especially for templates for various sample library articulations and controlling CC#'s. Just got a second iPad Air for this. Early days, but it really seems to be the business. [url="http://metasystem.io"]http://metasystem.io[/url] I use it for Cubase 9 and Studio One. I believe it is also for Logic Pro and Digital Performer. http://metasystem.io/video/video.html

[quote name='Skol303' timestamp='1489486236' post='3257273'] It's like the chat room for SAGA Holidays in here. Not that I lurk in the SAGA Holidays chat room and am able to make this comparison from personal experience, of course. That is all. As you were. [/quote] I depped on a Two Week Saga Cruise, about 8/9 years ago. Couldn't play anything above about 60 bpm, without someone falling over and breaking a bone. And that was just the band...Horrible experience.

Yes, a very sweet player. Great musical feel.

Most things fit in with music theory, even the 'Buddy Holly Chord/Interval' (as is known in some circles, or Flatted (lower) Submediant 'b VI'). It's been around for ever. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Submediant

I can't help, I am lazy. I tend to purchase Sample Libs with Round Robins. I really should attempt to do what you are doing at some point in Kontakt. Have you tried a request over at the CWITEC/KVR forum ? http://www.kvraudio.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=213

[quote name='Marty Forrer' timestamp='1489461722' post='3257134'] Uh, Paul Warning, Peggy Sue has 4 chords. Just being pedantic. [/quote] What's an 'F' between friends.

[quote name='ivansc' timestamp='1489398245' post='3256507'] Absolutely - even if he did nick the odd melody & chord progression from others. [/quote] Good Composers Borrow, Great Composers Steal. (not my words).

Ibanez had a similar thing going on a few years back. Maybe the Six string didn't catch on, so they upped the game with a seven string. [url="https://postimg.org/image/51r4jdgpv/"][/url]
