_BiB_ Posted November 13, 2004 Share Posted November 13, 2004 Darin cheated. I'm a genuine old guy and actually own a copy of the White Album. (album, not CD). I also have Revolver and a few others. Now, if I could only find a record player... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_BiB_ Posted November 13, 2004 Share Posted November 13, 2004 I also still can do a pretty respectable version of Norwegian Wood on a 12 string. Ask Harriet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted November 13, 2004 Author Share Posted November 13, 2004 Julia 115179[/snapback] As they say at the Pai Gow tables- Winna! The Beatles sing about chicks all the time. Julia, Michelle, Sexy Sadie, Dear Prudence, Martha My Dear, etc, etc. Part of what makes them so damn special. We can all relate to them, except BF Whats your lyric sample Darin?

"Dear Prudence, Michelle, Norwegian Wood and Yesterday" were on the menu. America, Seals and Crofts, you get the drill. At the old good bars (before disco) used to Deep Purple and such. Then, I got respectable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didnt Harrison use a Sitar for that song? 115190[/snapback] I use a 12, with the bass E tuned to open D, to get the strong base. The trick to the song is cutting your timing just a hair, to get the rythm of the vocals to match the rythm of the music. The Beatles were geniuses of their time, musically.

I have listened to the Beatles damn near everyday for the past 20 years and get a deeper appreciation for them every time I hear them. Constantly a new song on every album jumps out at me. Julia is a hidden gem lost beneath some classic tunes. Man I didnt mean this to become a Beatles love thread but man do I love the Beatles!

Pete Posted November 13, 2004 Author Share Posted November 13, 2004 Most people consider me old, stupid, opinionated and boring. 115194[/snapback] Old is relative. A 15 year old is old in the eyes of an 8 year old. Stupid and boring are subjective adjectives and possibly defense mechanisms. Opinionated is the way to be. I mean if would you rather be a flip flopper like you know who or would you rather have some beliefs?

_BiB_ Posted November 13, 2004 Share Posted November 13, 2004 That's Ok. Darin is rummaging through his Village People tapes for a name that tune. Not that there's anything wrong with that... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
