Now...This is GOOD!

Listen to this...
One song did during the tribute to the FUNK BROTHERS...yes caps they WERE motown! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gA0GcXV2njY

I could listen to this everyday.
There is some very high end talent in that crowd.

I plan to learn to play it...of course it won't be like this.
I need a style for this. May have to do my own.

Donny,
How can I get a copy of it?
I'd like to see if I can get it working on the PA2 nicely.

Lee S.

Gave me goosebumps!!!

Lee one of the reasons I sold my Pa2xpro; how can they omit a style like this?

you got mail

kbrkr,

Yep, I know what you mean...I'm surprised more folks here have not commented..this is awesome! I can't seem to quit listening to it!


That's why the tools on board are superb...let's see if I can get one to work.
There actually are lots of styles out there for PA...but maybe no this one?

Thanks Donny...
I may have to have Rikki help me if I get in over my head ..she has done lots of them.

Lee, the Motown 1 and Motown 2 in your Pa2X are perfect for this.

No kidding!
WOW, thanks man...I'm off to the kbd.
I'll report back
Lee S.

Don't forget to play around with the tempo, either. Doing that transforms some/most/all styles. Have fun!

124,
Yes...the Motown 1 & 2 are a good start...I thnk I can tweek #2 a bit and get what I want..and I am going to try the Yamaha style too.
Thanks,
Lee

The Funk Brothers. Read an interesting biography a while back. Guys were GREAT, and exploited...no residuals...but greatly admired by music lovers everywhere.


Russ

And did you see the PBS special on them some time ago? Great stuff!

Oh yeah...baby...I even have the DVD.
I wish they were all alive today to get the recognition they deserved!

Can you imagie setting in a session with them..just watching/hearing the creativity??

Lee S.

Great song, great arrangement. Being a motown purist, I'd love to hear a remix of this arrangement with JR singing, maybe turn up the bari sax a bit.

Sounds great..
Actually , I think I like Joan Osborne's version even better...

yep, a little louder on the big Bari..would be fine.
