I can export from GP as Pdf; there are five instruments in there. Do you want all five, or just the bass..? GP plays them, too; do you want the audio..?

(Guitar Pro is an excellent tool in its own right, and worth its low price...)

Just the bass part would be good. No need for the audio.

Cheers

Great thread this. We introduced the song into our set some time ago and it's great to play. I have kept it fairly simple whilst trying to retain some of the flavour. I'll take another look at it with download from Dad 3353.

When i was learning this i found the best YouTube video cover was this one.

Troy's videos are great, always easy to see what he's doing and pretty much straight although sometimes he adds little bits one the end 🙂

Perhaps I can end this long-running topic by posting my transcription of what I played on Fool For Your Loving. Bilbo's transcription is pretty good, but having used the software/websites that separate recordings into bass, drums, vocals and 'other', it doesn't give a hifi separation of the bass part (though it's helpful) so is not to be relied upon 100%.

I promise a video will follow - yes I know I've been promising that for years! More likely a play-through rather than a lesson where different sections are explained slowly.

I have never claimed to be a virtuoso that can play 'perfect' lines at 1,000 mph so please look elsewhere for that. I try to play parts that suit the song, according to my own taste, if there is any freedom to do so.

I'm just happy getting the transcript. The Vid would just be the icing for me.

Isn't this just the most amazing thing, @neilmurraybass himself posts a transcription. It really doesn't get much better than that.

One of the 3 ultimate bass heros of my youth - Neil Murray, Mars Cowling (sadly deceased) and Glenn Hughes.

Yep i'd rate all 3 up there in top 10 of all time great rock bassists.

I'd forgotten about Mars Cowling. Thanks for reminding me. Got a few Pat Travers albums.

I think that my major achievement since the pandemic started has been to finally learn to play Mars Cowling's bassline on the live album version of Gettin' Betta...!

Had a listen and very impressive. He does that funk thing quite a lot but its almost his trademark for me.

Neil's also just posted Ready and Willing on his FB page along with quite a few others.

Hopefully he'll share that on BC too.

Yes, should have posted them here first, but got caught up in trying to post PDF versions on Facebook (very complicated), so I put images instead on my Neil Murray bass guitarist FB page and got on with other things. I will rectify later, and I hope to add more transcriptions in coming weeks.

Brilliant Neil. I didn't want to copy them over myself as they aren't mine.
