Rich Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 LOVE that drum track, one of my favourites. So simple, yet perfect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jambo63 Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 Cool, I'll have a listen later. I have something similar for Bohemian Rhapsody somewhere (in MP3 format) bit weird listening to individual bits fo the song but fascinating how it all links together as a song.

Stu-khag Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 cheers for that! great stuff! I love hearing isolated tracks like that and hearing how they all cement together. takes away none of the wonder (excuse the pun) of the track by hearing it dissected like that Reminds me of a few years back on the old bassworld site someone posted a link to isolated led zep drum tracks where you could hear john bonham grunting and effing and jeffing his way through the tracks. Wasnt there a post way back with lots of different isolated tracks? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

molan Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 Brilliant - absolutely loved this 8 channels of Clavinet No wonder it never sounds right whenever I hear someone cover it, lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete Academy Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 The bass part is simple but effective. I've heard many a bassist overplay on that song. Just doesn't need it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OldGit Posted March 14, 2010 Author Share Posted March 14, 2010 (edited) [quote name='casapete' post='772786' date='Mar 12 2010, 02:10 PM']Ace, especially the horns![/quote] Yeah, embarrassingly this find came about when the MD in the occasional funk band I play with gave me the baritone sax part for Superstition and I thought he'd transcribed it incorrectly. He produced this web page and I learned a lot Turns out I'd been playing it incorrectly for years without realising. I only ever play it on bass in 3 or 4 piece bands so I play the key parts of the clavinet and horn parts too Overplay? Wasaat?

Musicman20 Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 Interesting and good timing! I have to learn this...seems quite simple but effective. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acidbass Posted March 15, 2010 Share Posted March 15, 2010 I had all of the tracks as seperate .wav files at one point in the past, think it might have been on my old computer. We were given them as a mixing project when I studied Music Tech at uni, I recall having great fun putting all the clav parts together! I'm pretty sure they're available on the web somewhere.

molan Posted March 16, 2010 Share Posted March 16, 2010 Speaking of which - anyone watched the making of Songs in the Key of Life that's on rotation on Sky Arts at the moment? I thought I knew this album really well but it's full of stuff that I've never picked out in the mix, amazing stuff. Great to watch Stevie playing some of the funky bass parts with his left hand whilst playing key melody parts over the top Interesting to see Nate Watts too, couldn't work out what sort of bass he was playing though?
