swanbrook Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 Soert guys if this is in the wrong section, I have a dep gig Friday and this is the only song I don't know, if I remember right there is a lot of bass runs and stuff in it. Normally I would sit down and chart it but I don't have time. So a big favor does anyone have the chart for this ? It would save my neck ;-) Cheers guys D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Learn the roots and add some fills here and there when you're comfortable with the structure, can't be that hard. No-one's going to care if it's not the same the original are they?

swanbrook Posted January 18, 2012 Author Share Posted January 18, 2012 Yeah that's a fairly simple version the original guy I think his name was deon plays some killer runs at around 2:45 mark, I will have a proper listen tonight The only person who would know its not perfect is me ;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's all really based on the first four notes of the major scale and a 4th below the tonic as that 'Bom Bom' accent before the chorus starts. I reckon you could have a lot of fun playing your own fills with this. They all sound pretty random anyway, so doing your own is more in keeping with the spirit of the song.

swanbrook Posted January 18, 2012 Author Share Posted January 18, 2012 What a fun song to play, the deon guy is on the money. I have played a few george Micheal tunes over the years and I am always surprised by how funky the bass lines are Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mook Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 I remember hearing that it was[color="#000000"]Randy Hope-Taylor playing on this track. Not sure if thats true but it would explain its amazingness. [/color] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
