hi tho2,

welcome to chordie. there are not many rules but we do expect you to abide by them. one of the biggest rules is not to use someone else's thread to ask your own questions, as you have done here and on another forum. most of us do this when we first join and get put in the right direction.

so...what you should do;

1st, decide what your question is about
2nd, decide which forum best suits your question
3rd, as we are all a very friendly bunch check for replies.

NB. when you go to the correct forum at the top right hand side you'll find "POST NEW TOPIC" click there and you can put your question to the members.

your main question seems to be how to record your band? this should go to the "recording forum."

hope this helps

thanks for that roger, a punishment that maybe should be brought back for so called brits who after being born here run off to join the taliban and other terrorist groups and kill/murder their countrymen. then expect to return to this country to claim unemployment benefits, NHS treatments etc. sorry, rant over

the romans had a good one where they tied each extremity to a horse and got the horses to run in opposite directions...then execute him/her/them....

hi themgilroy,

no sorry there is no F in the song. it's very complicated in that it uses a lot of major 7ths. this is the best i could make of it...

opening part.. A- Bm- E7- A-E-E7

main verse... A- Amaj7- A7- E- E7- Bm- Bm (major7)- Bm7- E7. A- Amaj7- A7- D- Dmaj7- B diminished - A- Amaj7- Bm7- Bm6- E9- E7.

end part.. A- Amaj7- A7- E9- E7- A.

the Bm (major7) isnt as complicated as it may sound. she plays it by fingering (lowest to highest).. B-F#-Bb-A-F#-B

someone will probably come along and say that i'm completely wrong...

still it's beautifully sung and performed. she gets a lovely sound where ever she is..

as above plus thanks for the constant ringing in my ears!

i know sean and julian have made their own original records, now james mccartney has his own band on tour and his own music.

but if your talking about second generation, how about marty wildes daughter kim? i just hope engelbert humperdink hasnt got any kids...one of him is enough.

ah but! john has two sons; julian and sean, which would be in the band?

also, i have read loads about the beatles and zak never rated the beatles or his dad! he loved kieth moon and the who, who he's played with.

and who would play bass as james seems to play guitar!

i always kind of hoped julian would join paul, george and ringo to replace his dad. now maybe dhanii would have to join too?

all the same, it's a band i'd like to hear just to see if the magic is in the genes.

i missed my first son's birth, but caught my other two son's and my daughter. it's a funny thing but, i never really wanted to have children, it's the wife who says "come on, let's have another baby!!!"

i had an epidural when i had my hernia op. not nice. but the vasectomy injection (i was awake) in the boys really hurt. and i had TWO vasectomy's. pain you forget until it happens again.

i remember my first guitar. and the day it folded itself in two....guess the strings might have been a bit tight...LOL

i cant forget the day i tried out my fender telecaster. i wanted to buy it the moment the shop guy put it in my hands, true love...just like the babies really, i never wanted to let them go again, i suppose that applies also to my wife. no money changed hands for the last two items.....

the biggest difference to the sound a guitar makes is the person playing it. i watched a concert where steve howe plays a solid body guitar that sounded more like an acoustic than my acoustic does. i've also heard players make an acoustic sound like a solid body. acoustics vary in sound depending on maker and strings or the way the guitarist plays. basically, it's the quality of guitar and the quality of the player. we can all kick a ball but how many can score the goal?

just found this post and wanted to pay my respects to Davey. i was in Egypt when i heard the news. so sad.

i do daydream believer and i'm a believer every gig, one gets em singing and the other gets em dancing.

hi mary beth, writing songs is about what you feel and the way you think about what you feel. the words you use to describe that feeling can make or break the song? no, not really! songs have so many elements, fine words are just a part of the whole thing. a good melody line and a commercial sounding tune, then add a strong chorus with sing-a-long ability. easy....no. some of the best songs ever written have never been committed to record. they may still be in your head. dont worry about all that stuff. write what's in your mind.

ps. as far as bob dylan is concerned, my favorite track by him is on the travelling wilberys album, it's called "tweeter and the monkey man" great story, great melody and performed by some of the biggest names in music history
