This was a hit recording for Glen Campbell in 1967. He was born in Arkansas in 1936 with his father being of a Scottish descent. He had a long and varied career from being a session musician in the early 60’s, to a spell playing bass for the Beach Boys and to even appearing in the movie True Grit st...

This very long song was composed by a Eric Bogle who was born in Peebles, Scotland in 1944 and who emigrated to Australia in 1969 where he settled finally in Adelaide. This is my much shortened version of this song. The lyrics recount the experiences of a member of ANZAC in the Battle of Gallipoli d...

Another version of this that I really like is the one by Eva Cassidy.

Sri, but this will not open on my iPad.

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

EH, wot?

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

This was one of Kenny Rogers' lesser known tunes but I found the lyrics very meaningful. I have not gone with the original arrangement and this is my own arrangement of the melody. I have played this to the memory of my late wife of 55 years. Hope someone likes it. Ron 1763524800563209

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 ...

Another well executed text Hugh which shows every detail involved.
A bit too much info as far as I am concerned when comparing it to my iPad version. However, you have a perfect result. Well done

Ron

This is how I have done it on my iPad. Steps for placing photo 1. Choose Title 2. Choose photo 3. Edit photo into square shape 4. Click on USE picture 5. Use - (minus) symbol to enlarge the inner moving square box until it fills window but without any white border showing anywhere. To achieve this a...

Jon D, Hello there Hugh it will still not play my friend. Jon As you continue to say that your Apple Computer will not play audio.com music, I would suggest that the fault lies within your computer. I use an iPad which uses Apple OS and everything works as it should apart from getting the numbers fo...

Hi Den, My memory is unusable for playing music. In my younger days when I played in my rock band, we rehearsed new tunes using the standard sheet music, with the key transposed by me to suit the vocalist. All tunes in our repertoire were committed to memory very easily in those days. However, nowad...
