Ross Posted April 30, 2011 Share Posted April 30, 2011 I've looked high and low for some decent Jethro Tull transcriptions and can't seem to find any decent ones, has anyone got any decent ones I could maybe borrow? Or would like to recommend where I can obtain some? Cheers guys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrackerJackLee Posted April 30, 2011 Share Posted April 30, 2011 [font="Courier New"]This must be one of the best bass features in rock history to listen to and to play - and an excellent fingering study! Here's one take on Glenn Cornick's version of Bach's Bouree for BG in Dm with Open Hand Fingering Form 4A, mostly in second position on the verses; but, most bassists seem to prefer the 1A fingering form in fifth position. This tab has the single note bass solo in the seventh position, while the double stop solo is tabbed all along the top two strings, D and G. Please let me know if you find errors. (Everyone hears notes differently and prefers their own fingering.) I've tried to remain faithful to the recording, but with respect to fingering, there are many ways to navigate the fingerboard with this one. Glenn Cornick seemed to keep the line very stable but there are specific bars in which he liked to play variations. I wonder if he was using a felt pick on the doublestops? I also like to experiment with Closed Hand, Simandl type fingering on this great bass piece. Double bassists must love the doublestop solo. If anyone has some insight on this selection or a tale to tell about its composition, I'd love to hear it. I'm working on a bass tab for Bach's original version, because it sounds great and makes for an interesting comparison. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
