alstocko Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 [quote name='cloudburst' timestamp='1347472108' post='1801363'] For me the most important uses of music notation are: 1. Playing someone else's ideas when you haven't heard them before and/or don't need or want to commit them to memory. PINO: Would (I think) exclusively be engaged to create his own bassline so this wouldn't apply. 2. Helping you study and work out how to play a chunk of someone else's music, if you can't do it totally by ear. PINO: Would probably subconsciously incorporate other people's ideas without thinking about it and would most likely have a good enough ear to reproduce most other things he chose to. So this wouldn't apply either. 3. Recording your own creations so you can reproduce them consistently. PINO: Would most likely use his own shorthand technique to jot down pivotal points in his songs and remember the intervening phrases he has created. NOtation not needed here either. Probably a load of crap - but that's the way I think about it. CB [/quote] Nice man, but Pino doesn't write all his own bass lines (unfortunately!) All the D'Angelo bass lines were written by D himself, they're still awesome! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
