Transcription: Billy Cobham - For Someone I Love

Here's that Billy Cobham transcription— just of a busy portion of Freddie Hubbard's solo on For Someone I Love, on Milt Jackson's record Sunflower. I'm learning a lot about Musescore doing something this damn complicated. Ignoring form altogether here, the…
Billy, switch to decaf babe

Getting cocky about my Musescore skills now, working on a Billy Cobham transcription, from Milt Jackson's album Sunflower. On the tune For Someone I Love, he does sort of an insane thing that almost crashes the album. The whole thing is really loose…

OK, first complete transcription using Musescore, doing basically everything I need it to do for this site. Same recording I've been working with, Flight For Freedom by Oliver Nelson, from his record Skull Session, with Shelly Manne on drums. There was…
Working with Musescore - 02

Getting further into Musescore with an easy Shelly Manne transcription, a rock arrangement called Flight For Freedom, from Oliver Nelson's record Skull Session. I like Manne's rock playing— it's a little different, with a great deep sound and pocket. …
Very occasional quote of the day: relationships for leaders

“The only thing that is really important in your relationship with actors is that they must know that you admire them, that you admire their work, and there’s no way to fake that. You must really admire them or you shouldn’t use them. If they know that you…
Snare drum vs. drum set training
http://www.cruiseshipdrummer.com/2024/09/snare-drum-vs-drum-set-training.html
Published: September 1, 2024 16:33
The following are some comments I made in a contentious online conversation about snare drum training and drum set training, and the differences between the two, that I think stand on their own— edited slightly for clarity:The snare drum and the drum set…

Reporting on a work in progress on Musescore, ever since Finale's parent company MakeMusic informed us their program would self-annihilate along with our current computer hardware, and destroy all of our prior musical output along with it. Actually they'll…
Daily best music in the world: Art Ensemble of Chicago - 1983

Published: August 29, 2024 16:29
While I figure out how to work Musescore, here's some Art Ensemble of Chicago. My German friends told an interesting story last year about how they got all of this Paiste gear... by some rather ruthless means. Not all musicians are real nice guys. Still, I…
Very occasional quote of the day: leading and musical direction

People in a band have a tendency to fall into ruts. They hear things only one way. They don't really want to change that much. The guitar player will only play guitar a certain way. It's very hard for that person to hear what I'm hearing. On some tunes, I…
