diskwave Posted November 28 Share Posted November 28 (edited) A change is always good so thght Id have a go at a load of those old American cop themes and Ive got to say the Kojak one is a stonker to play, taken a bit of figuring without a chart but Ive just about got it...big fun indeed. Anyway, Magnum, Streets of San Francisco, Bullit, Cagney & Lacey....really exciting stuff to play. Edited 21 hours ago by diskwave 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice one, I’m familiar with the theme to Kojak because I watched some of the episodes lately, there’s some really funky tunes in that show 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skidder652003 Posted November 29 Share Posted November 29 (edited) Riviera Paradise by Steveie Ray Vaughn. The Bass part is dead easy but Im also playing keys (Hammond B3) with my feet. Using a midi footswitch, ipad mini and free programme called Dreamfoot as well as garageband. Also learning Since I've been loving You by Led Zep with organ parts supplied by EHX C9 pedal. Hopefully ready for next gig in a weeks time! Edited November 29 by skidder652003 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I prefer this version: Yeah, I was rather afraid of that, but the others seem less bothered by the prospect! Funnily enough, "I'd Rather Go Blind" did also enter the discussion, but TW won out in the end. 🤷♂️ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be Scott Edwards, Ronnie Baker.. pretty sure its not Jamerson, his last hit was Rock The Boat which I think preceeds this gem.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
