Brave Sir Robin Posted August 29, 2009 Posted August 29, 2009 Anyone knows where I could some early Jamiroquai (emergency on planet earth - travelling without moving) bass tabs? I don't think there is an official bass booklet (Real shame, Stu Zender's lines are great). It's for my sister, I can't be arsed transcripting them IIRC, there is a very hard-to-find collection of popular transcripted Jamoriquai songs, I can't find any reference on the net (only crappy bass tab websites).

Beedster Posted August 29, 2009 Posted August 29, 2009 Stuart Clayton on here has two great books of JK transcriptions, extremely well done and well worth the investment. Either PM him or go to www.basslinepublishing.com. I assume they're stil in print Chris Quote

He published a couple of Jamiroquai transcription books a few years ago but I believe they are now out of print!! However, Bassline Publishing (my company) will soon be releasing a Brand New Heavies bass book. Cheers Stuart Quote

sdgrsr400 Posted August 30, 2009 Posted August 30, 2009 Just checked out Simon Merrick's site: very good indeed, with many exercises and transcriptions: [url="http://www.thebassment.info/"]http://www.thebassment.info/[/url] Quote
spacecowboy Posted September 2, 2009 Posted September 2, 2009 I managed to pick up those Jamiroquai bass books by Si Merrick back in the day, very very wise investments indeed! Big heads up to his site [url="http://www.thebassment.info/"]http://www.thebassment.info/[/url] for some awesome transcriptions and lessons. Quote
Brave Sir Robin Posted September 2, 2009 Author Posted September 2, 2009 Thanks a lot, really appreciated. Shame they are not available anymore. I tried to get hold of them a long time ago with no luck. grrr...! Quote
kets Posted September 2, 2009 Posted September 2, 2009 I agree, Simon Merrick's site is awesome, with super transcriptions. Bassmasta isn't too shabby either, certainly a good starting point. Also, Bass player magaizine did a transcription of Virtual insanity and I think maybe bass guitar magazine did Emergency on planet earth and someone else did Alright. Got copies somewhere I think. Good luck Quote

Higgie Posted September 3, 2009 Posted September 3, 2009 Last I heard he was trying to sort out copyright protection so that he could sell each tab as a PDF. Quote
Brave Sir Robin Posted September 3, 2009 Author Posted September 3, 2009 (edited) It's quite ridiculous isn't it. Jamiroquai's still popular, The bass lines are great, they'd make a killing. I would get transcriptions of Emergency... / Travelling... / High Times no questions asked. Jamiroquai isn't particularly hard to transcribe either. Drums are pretty simple, no guitar solo... J.K.'s ego in the way? His wallet? Edited September 3, 2009 by Brave Sir Robin Quote
Gust0o Posted September 4, 2009 Posted September 4, 2009 I have some of these for Guitar Pro. I really don't know the quality, or which songs, as I haven't touched them - but I guess I could pull them into a pdf for you? PM me your e-mail if you'd like. Quote
