![]() It can be quite a rewarding process though. That can be difficult and sometimes impossible to do on the guitar, so one just has to find other ways to do it that suit the instrument. The nature of the piano / keyboard allows lots of close voiced chord inversions that move so nicely to another chord with minimal motion. Trying to closely mimic a well played piano accompaniment on guitar is often a very difficult task. In this case, the chord example tommytubetone referenced is already pretty rich and will probably serve your purposes quite well. I'm not sure how far you want to take the chord arrangement, but I find that aspect more time consuming and challenging than getting a lead or melody part down.Įven if I have a good chord chart already laid out in front of me, it can take quite a while to work out the best sounding chord inversions in a way that they move smoothly from one to another, introducing passing chords, other substitutions, introducing variety from chorus to chorus, little fills, maybe some bass line, etc. Lots of really sweet licks in there! Someday I will have to revisit this. Is this the version you are transcribing? A lot of times, I’ll place a bracket over notes and write ‘this is fast’ or cryptic squiggles at the ends of notes. When I’m transcribing I try to notate successive bends and releases, trills and give some indication of time. Then most importantly, I’m wondering how to transcribe time. Any hints on chasing down the chord progression? The recording is piano, but I hope I can find the guitar chords. But I need to pick out the chord progression to play into my looper, then go back and try to learn the 4 minute solo in time. I’ve just got the lead transcribed, first pass I know there’ll be some fixes. famed jazz singer Ella Fitzgerald released a rendition of the song, produced by Norman Granz, on the album Ella Swings Gently with Nelson. I know Black Magic Woman so well in my head since it came out in high school, I just know it in my head plus I can play along with the recording. 'Georgia on My Mind' is a 1930 song written by Hoagy Carmichael and Stuart Gorrell and first recorded that same year by Hoagy Carmichael at the RCA Victor Studios at 155 East 24th Street in New York City. Hopefully my pitch recognition will get better. I will hear a run first convinced it is- 3rd string 0 1 2 3 4 5 4 5 then after not being satisfied find that is actually 3rd string 4 2nd 5 1st string 3 5 6 7 6 7. I have transcribed it pretty much note for note. Recently I heard Peter Frampton’s Georgia on My Mind instrumental version (2019 I think). Listening to Bluesville on SXM driving I take screen shots of songs I might want learn (dangerous I know). If I screw up, I just cross it out and keep going. I write the notes down on tab lined sheets in black ink. If I slow down further like 50%, it starts getting muddy, 35% is barely usable given my hearing condition. I can usually pick out a lot a full speed but 70% works really well. I use Transcribe software to slow it down if needed. I think got it note for note (can’t play it like Carlos but sounds good to me). ![]() In January, I did Santana’s Black Magic Woman, start to finish except the keyboard parts. Thank you.I started some new transcriptions this year. ![]() If you like jazz music played with classical guitar, let me also suggest you “ Summer Song“, that is a composition of mine. The versions that I propose are played with the classical guitar, try it you too, please. The most famous version is certainly that of Ray Charles, but it’s a song that has become a standard proposed by many jazz musicians. The song was originally dedicated by its author to Georgia Carmichael, but then became the official song of the state of Georgia in the USA. It is also in the ranking of Rolling Stones magazine, which puts it at number 44 among the best songs of all time. ![]() Georgia on My Mind is one of the most important songs of the last century. ![]()
