peety Posted November 19, 2009 Share Posted November 19, 2009 Wonder if anyone here can help, we have had a request for this song for a wedding, but we are having no luck getting the music for it, tried all the usual places but can't find it anywhere wondered if any of the good people here may have either the sheet music or even chords for it would be very grateful as it would save us a bit of time. Oh and if anyone has a bass score or tab that would be even better ha cheers steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete Academy Posted November 19, 2009 Share Posted November 19, 2009 I've played this quite a few times. I always slap it, but I can never tell how it's played. On record it sounds amazing. Anybody know who played on it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve-soar Posted November 19, 2009 Share Posted November 19, 2009 I use to have a lot of 4th and B'way records to hand, my best friend was a DJ in the 80's and has all this stuff at home, rang him but no credits on the singal or album, Just checking the producers out for any links to musos, could be a toughie to find the bassist, good call, classic tune.

rasher80 Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 can someone help me? on Stuart's transcripton, between the standard notation and tab, there's a sequence of [i]t[/i] s and [i]p [/i] s which seem to be in line with the notes. my understanding of theory is zilch so i don't know what it means? I thought it might be instruction for slap, which i ain't too great on either :blush: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

louisjohnson Posted March 7, 2019 Share Posted March 7, 2019 il me semble que c'est Bobby watson, il n'est pas crédité dans l'album, d'ailleurs aucun musicien, mais jme rappelle avoir cherché ya quelques années et je suis tombé sur une partition et c etait crédité Bobby watson. C un des plus grands bassiste Rnb de studio dans les 70 80, il bossait dans le groupe rufus et chaka khan, avec stevie wonder, michael jackson pour" rock with you", et Prince ,notamment. Il etait très demandé et il l'est toujours. A confirmer quand même, mais c son style, jpense que c'est lui. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
