    COFFEE HOUSE - Singer-songwriters and iReal pro

    The edit button seems to have deleted my first post. That's ok, it was mostly detailed info on diff. ways to import iReal Midi & Audio files into Logic Pro (Mac).There's prob. a diff. thread that I can find to post that stuff on.

    COFFEE HOUSE - Singer-songwriters and iReal pro

    Sorry - posted before I was done. Btw - the edit button (small pencil on the lower right) doesn't seem to allow editing - ? + when my flute playing friend & I get together to jam, it's just flute & guitar (or sometimes keyboard), so we use iReal for our background tracks. The massive amount of...

    COFFEE HOUSE - Singer-songwriters and iReal pro

    Just ran into this thread, & even though it's a year & 1/2 old, I'd like to comment: I LOVE iReal Pro, & I really can't imagine doing w/o it. Even though I'm now a retired music teacher/church musician, I use it (& have used it) in myriad ways: + when writing original music, to keep track of...

    Overkill - Colin Hay

    Yeah, he's using a "double drop D" tuning there. He shows (very slowly) how he plays the song using that tuning at the video link below. I'm planning on posting a chart that has the changes in that tuning, after I absorb this video more fully...

    You Can't Get What You Want ('Till You Know What You Want) - Joe Jackson

    You Can't Get What You Want ('Till You Know What You Want) - Joe Jackson From his excellent "Body and Soul" album. Pop-Smooth @ 126 bpm, Piano & Slap Bass. For the Solo section, I skipped the Bass solo, too hard for me to notate what he's doing.

    The dry cleaner from des moines - Joni Mitchell-Charles Mingus (request)

    Looks like an amazing transcription for the bass, thx for the link to that site! As far as an iReal Pro chart, it looks like a 12 bar blues in Bb w/ some standard altered turnarounds. I'll try to work on it when I have a chance. Or somebody else can beat me to it, if they want!

    Black Coffee in Bed - Chris Difford-Glenn Tilbrook

    No, not the jazz standard "Black Coffee", but the great pop/soul song by the British pop band Squeeze. Worked long & hard on this one to (hopefully) get it right. I use Pop-Smooth, @ 110, w/ Leslie organ & Picked Bass. This sorta sounds too fast at 110, but I think that's because the bass is so...

    Tempted - Chris Difford-Glenn Tilbrook

    Tempted (Squeeze) - revised Revised this chart to match the song form of the recording. Also credited the names of the composers. I was surprised to find out that Difford & Tilbrook wrote this great song - I had thought it was Paul Carrack (Carrack does sing the majority of the song). Tempted...

    Let's Dance - David Bowie

    You're welcome! Heard the song played at a wedding recently, just had to figure it out .

    Let's Dance - David Bowie

    Revised version of this song - added bass notes in the A section (I like the Moog Bass). The N.C.'s on beat #4 in the measures before the bass notes are to make the player play only bass notes. I know the bass notes don't exactly replicate what's on the original recording, we'd need 8th notes...

    Happiness Is Just Around the Bend - Brian Auger

    Cool tune from British keyboardist Brian Auger's Oblivion Express album, "Closer To It!" (1973). This song was one of my first introductions to jazz music (I was 15-16 yrs. old when it came out, & I only heard it because for some reason it was on the playlist of a local rock radio station)...
