Hugh and I had discussed this way of two musicians collaborating as I used to be a bass player in a band, and Hugh had asked what I would have played as a bass part to his Michael Row The Boat Ashore . We had already decided that there was no point in trying to use a MIDI recording as Hugh has a Tyr...

Very happy that you have finally completed this topic which is well detailed. My first attempt at including my own bass part will be up and running ASAP.

Ron

Lots of lovely harmonies in your version of this old tune, most enjoyable listen.

Ron

Oh well, I suppose someone had to play the first Christmas song of 2023. Well done Brian for a fine rendition of a J Lennon song.

Ron

You could always pick out the bones of the tune when he played and he never lost it in a finger gymnastic display as some of his contemporaries did. Great bassist, who is unknown to me, but a good walking bass style plus his soloing ability was something else. I remember trying to play Lullaby of Bi...

Sorry folks, but neither of these did much for me. BTW, Chet Baker (Jerry Mulligan quartet, trumpet,) has a wonderful singing voice which is very reminiscent of Mel Torment. Jazz without piano is a non starter for me. Imagine Oscar Peterson trio without a piano ! uPlU9xYmWKI One example of Oscar Pet...

Very easy and well explained tutorial.

Ron

Always been a fan of PIANIST Aimee Nolte. Great piano teacher.

Ron

Part 1, too much rambling waffle to hold my attention. Basically, boring!

Pity the sound is not synched to the finger movements. Looks really weird when watching his hands.
And, NO, I will still not be buying one.

Ron

Genos 2 is now here and for sale. The video link is by courtesy of Bonners Stores and is a full Yamaha demo of the new styles.
Will I be buying it? LOL…….no.

Sri, but this will not open on my iPad.

Ron

Hugh, really liked the accordions which definitely enhanced the piece.

Ron

Well performed as usual Hugh.

Ron

EH, wot?

Ron

As we have already discussed this Hugh, I think it is only fair to state for the sake of the unbelievers that these notes are not written to be played by a bass player. These are the notes required to setup the Multipad function where everything is based on the scale of Cmaj7. I for one, cannot get ...

Hugh, The bass notation below in the screen shot is incorrect. http://www.ar-group.org/Files/MichaelRowBASS2B.jpg The lowest note on the bass is E below middle C. So the notes in your demo should not be written as they are. This would seem to be a product of the Yamaha Tyros “ Score “ function. It o...

This is a small selection of my handiwork which keeps me busy when not playing my T3. You should note that they are not painted in the normal artistic manner and are known as “Paint by Numbers”. The outline of the subject is computer generated and printed onto canvas in a multiple series of small nu...

Could not use this method in my head. Prefer the old fashioned method. My Maths teacher never taught me anything!

Ron

I spotted Louis Armstrong, Sammy Davis Jr, Gene Krupa and Buddy Rich.

"Through the Years" is a song written by Steve Dorff and Marty Panzer, and recorded by American country music artist Kenny Rogers. It was released in December 1981 as the fourth single from the album Share Your Love.

Hugh, I shared an Audio.com link to my FACEBOOK page. To do this the one you want is Copy Link . Below is a screen shot of how this looks on my Facebook Page. On clicking the text, I was redirected to the song on my Audio.com page and was able to play the tune by clicking the Play arrow. I would sus...

Hugh, is your genius unlimited? You never fail to amaze me with some of your recent eye opening techniques. Now, I just need to find some motivation and try out your latest revelation. The TDP Forum must consider itself very lucky to have your talent being put to such good use. Well done :lol: Ron

Another enlightening article Hugh. I had noticed these 2 magic buttons, but never ever tried using them. Could be used to great effect depending on the tune being played.

Ron

I have come across the Jazz chord chart below which shows the make up of all the chords you could ever come across. They are based on C as the root. http://www.ar-group.org/Files/JazzChords700.jpg This can be viewed and downloaded as a PDF file. Click this LINK below. http://www.ar-group.org/Files/J...

Yes Hugh, definitely a brighter sound on the violin bearing in mind I am listening on my iPad and not using headphones.

Ron

It would come as a great surprise to myself and possibly others that this is why there are variations in the recordings posted on this Forum.

Ron

Thanks John. For anyone interested in this learning method, she does video lessons on YouTube.

Ron

This is right up your street Hugh with your background in Mathematics. Sorry, but I am not so talented unfortunately

Ron

John, you have NOT included the link for this.

Ron

Great pity Hugh that your tutorials were not around when I had just started doing my very early recordings. Would have made life much easier. However, I learned by trial and error. Just need now to try and make my recordings much more universally pleasing

Ron

Another excellent article to enable fuller use of Audacity.

Ron

Another well executed article to help others get their perfect audio recording.

Ron

Thanks Hugh

Nice to know you could hear the difference with the alternative chords

Ron

The judges on this TV show are just a bunch of self opiniated, big headed celebrity naffs. However, I must side with their verdict. Those 2 organists did not shine mainly due to the choice of music they tried to perform. It was an outdated sound being played in a modern environment and organ sounds ...
