There'"s a guitar tutoriol on Lady Madonna : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eZP9gXMd0eo , so why don't you start a new thread on this subject and leave that "no notice" crap behind you ?


Happy to oblige Ron. Sadly I can't play a 6 string. But there are some good bassists covering the bass line of Lady Madonna.

Man, I need to bookmark your youtube profile. I can never find it when I try a search.

I left a comment a couple months ago on one of your covers. Nice work.

Can you post a link to your profile or one of your vids?

Edit: I found it (needed to take out the space in your name). For those looking, it is at http://www.youtube.com/user/colinessex#p/a/u/0/sYNyhPIqYIY

G’day Col.

I still don’t understand the thrust of this thread and so a question…

I know I can’t hit a can with a stick but what causes the, for want of a technical term, the buzzing heard first at 1 minute 11 seconds and again, more predominately, at 1 minute 14 seconds in the link you provided? (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eZP9gXMd0eo)

Not being negative, just curious.

Regards,
Chris.

Glad that you changed your direction towards music rather than that " notice" palaver. Anyway, I'm not a big Beatles fan and after having explored guitar and keyboards in a more jazzy/funk/bebop styles , I'm now trying to learn lap steel guitar, primarely to support chords for some fusion tunes I wrote a while ago.

Here's a great instruction vid for that lap steel thing :

That's not my link - it was Ron dk that posted it, I just transferred it to this new thread.

The reason for this thread is that Vassago and I (and others) were discussing various songs we could play (or learn to play) the bass line to. I am just resurrecting it.

Currently, I am trying to learn the bass line to Lady Madonna, I'll Cry Instead and Taxman, all by The Beatles. I suppose I'm 60% there on each of them.

Mr BoJangles? Wasn't he the mouse from the Green Mile? :p

It's great to watch someone who obviously loves his music.

I think that was 'The Green Mile' :p

Tim's pretty cool. He was a 'copter pilot in nam, was shot down, etc. Awesome story hearing him tell it. Then got out of the service and got an engineering degree, etc...
