daz Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 (edited) [quote name='silddx' timestamp='1324505985' post='1475136'] He's good, our Higgie. Seen his Rhythm Stick cover? [/quote] pah!, I wish i could play [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A61i0Xscj-k"]Rhythm Stick[/url], its one of my faves. Twas a big hit back in 1978. I remember it from school, i think i was in the fourth year when it came out (age 15) I tell ya. Its not as if i cant get the notes or the speed correct, it seems to be just the timing (or Rhythm ) seems to be totally out. I even got the song and slowed it right down and still cant get it correct. Seems as if you need fingers like precision springs, with distributer cap timing, to get it down. Most annoying, eh!

Higgie Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 I've had trouble changing the License setting to play on iPod/iPhone devices, due to copyright. If you view it on a laptop/PC it should be fine! Thanks a lot for the comments guys, it really is appreciated! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gareth1982 Posted December 24, 2011 Share Posted December 24, 2011 I've just gone and learnt this song inspired by this performance. We play uptight and signed sealed delivered in my band, but I'd never had a crack at this one til this morning. Nice one Higgie, sounds really good man! *goes to practise a bit more!* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Higgie Posted December 24, 2011 Share Posted December 24, 2011 [quote name='paul_5' timestamp='1324721036' post='1477268'] and a Rush anthology in the background too, good man. [/quote] Really need to spend more time with this...Bought it for the transcription of YYZ...So far it's the only one I've learned! Thanks xgsjx, and Gareth, I'm glad my version of this tune inspired you to learn it...Get a video of yours up - I'd love to see your take on it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LukeFRC Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 Nice playing! Also I was sat there thinking the bass sounded familiar.... I have a similar JV 57'ri, SD pup in mine though. Surprising how they sound similar, well it shouldn't be but it was Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
