Try kappa.rice.edu, or ftp.uu.net in /doc/music/bass

It would be nice to have a bass.tab group for all of us 4-stringers..

Regardless of the merits of that analogy, some people seem to have
this "perfect pitch", and the add claims that it can be learned.

Is there anyone out there who did not originally have perfect pitch
and then learned it, either through this advertised set of cassettes
or some other means? Anyone who completed this course and 
improved/didn't improved their sense of absolute pitch? 

I would love to hear about your experiences.

Ok, since I have some time and the only other thing I could be doing is
Calculus, here's a few PearlJam licks for those interested. I'd appreciate
corrections as I sometimes have a tin ear.

Jeremy - Intro
E--------------------------------------------------------------------------
B--------------------------------------------------------------------------
G----------------0-----------------------------0--------(12)---------------
D------------7-0--------(12)----------------7-0----(12)--------------------
A--0-5h7---------------------(12)---0-5h7----------------------------------
E---------5-------------------------------5--------------------------------

The (12) are for natural harmonics.  I might have them backwards.  A similar
riff runs throughout the song.

Alive
The main riff, intro and verses goes:

Intro:
E------
B------
G--------0-
D------0-
A--10s-
E------

Main Riff- runs through into and first two verses
E---------------------------------------------------------------------------
B---------------------------------------------------------------------------
G-2------------------2-2-2--------------------------------------------------
D-2------0-7h9-7(v)--2-2-2------0-7h9-7-9(b)--5--0--------------------------
A-0-5s7--------------0-0-0-5s7----------------7--0--------------------------
E---------------------------------------------------------------------------

(v)-vibrato (b)-bend

The turnaround after the intro and verses is just F and C ("...Sorry you didn't
see him (Ba Da DA DA Da dum). . .").  The chorus is just 2 beats each of E,G,D,
and A. The final verse is something like this:

E--------5-------------------------------------------------------
B-2--0-3---3--2-0-3--0--0-----------------------------------------
G-0--0-2------0-0-2--2--2----------------------------------------- twice
D-2--2-0------2-2-0-0--0------------------------------------------
A----------------------------------------------------------------
E----------------------------------------------------------------

E-----------------
B---4--2--5------- (I think) twice
G---2--2--4------
D---4--4--2-------
A---2--2--2-------
E-----------------

Which is about all I have time for now. Hope this helps someone. Any comments,
questions or corrections, feel free to E-mail.

I don't know if any of you in the states have heard of 
a band from Northern Ireland, called the Undertones. They
were formed in the late Seventies and included Feargal Sharkey
as their lead vocalist. They split in about '83 I think.
Anyway this is one of their classic (British) hits from 1980,
taken from their second album "Hypnotysed".

BTW, in case anyone is interested, "University Challenge"
was a progamme on British television, where two teams of four
from two different universities compete against each other
in a sort of quiz thing.
 Subbuteo, is a table-top soccer game with the catchphrase
 "Just flick to kick".

The Undertones - "My perfect Cousin"


intro
	G -> A     A -> E       X4
	3rd  5th   5th  12th

Verse 1:
	A                            E
	Now I've got a cousin called Kevin, 
	     A             E
	He's sure to go to Heaven,
	G                D
	always spotless, clean and neat, 
	 G		 D
	as smooth as you get 'em.
		   A                   E
	He's got a fur lined sheepskin jacket, 
	   A                    E
	My ma says they cost a packet,
	    G               D
	but she won't even let me explain,
	     G    
	that me and Kevin, 
	     D
	we just look the same


Chorus:
	    A	        E
	Oh, my perfect cousin, 
	     A               E
	what I like to do he doesn't, 
	 A	           D 
	He's his family's pride and joy,
	     Dbm              E
	his mother's little golden boy.


Verse2:
	He's got a degree in economics, 
	maths, physics and bionics, 
	He thinks that I'm a cabbage,
	`cos I hate "University Challenge",
	Even at the age of ten, 
	Smart boy Kevin was a smart boy then, 
	He always beat me at "Subbuteo",
	`Cos he flicked to kick,
	and I didn't know.

Chorus

Break:
	A G  E D X2
	E D  A G X2
	Db -> D x2 or 3...


Verse3:

	His mother bought him a synthesizer, 
	got the Human League in to advise her,
	Now he's making lots of noise, 
	playing along with the Art school boys,
	Girls try to attract his attention,
	but what a shame, it's in vain,
	total rejection,
	he will never be left on the shelf 
	'cos Kevin, he's in love with himself.

Chorus:

Outro:  as intro and fade.


	I hope somebody likes the undertones out there...

	Cheers....

	Chris.

I'm pretty sure (though not positive) that the easily-available (yellow and
black) book "Fingerpicking The Beatles" has that song.  It is probably
different from the recorded version, though, as that series generally gives 
solo, 2-3 part renditions of the songs, not what's recorded.

i knew i'd get alot about this post and the song...
yes there alternet tuning for open chords to make it sound
like the orig.  but if you just pick up your guitar and 
want to play `suite: Judy blue eyes', there was a way...


about the Gsus7....  the low C and the high B `clash a little bit'.
that also makes for a full sounding chord.  there are many instances
where there is a half tone clash (any maj7).

more to come...

The main riff to Back in Black goes like this (I forget which magazine I
got this from but I know it's correct):

   E   D       A
------------------------------------
-------3-3-3------------------------
-------2-2-2---2-2-2----------------

I think the other posts have successfully identified the other riffs. 
This song is not hard to play by any means, but just remember to mute
the strings a little after you strike them so you'll get the full effect.

This isn't a Gsus.  It's just a G, but some people like to call it
a G5 because it has a extra 5th (D) in it.  Gsus would have the notes
G, C, and D.  You could play it 3x0013, or 355533 (or just xx5533, for 
those of us who can't do bar chords).
