Title: Flatback Caper...? Post by: Anna on March 30, 2007, 07:02:39 PM Can anyone tell me which album(s) Flatback Caper appears on?
I was just having a look at it and would like to hear it - what's in the songbook has me intrigued, not least how to deal with a time signature change from 4/4 to 6/8. 9/8's easy enough, it's just 3/4 in disguise :o (don't tell any music theorists I said that ;D) but 4/4 to 6/8 has me confounded although the metro-mo-gnome might be putting me off a tad. Cheers guys! Title: Re: Flatback Caper...? Post by: Jim on March 30, 2007, 07:04:29 PM its on "full house"

As I thought, they play it about a million times faster than I'll ever be able to!! Title: Re: Flatback Caper...? Post by: Anna on March 30, 2007, 07:12:28 PM Bizzarely enough...
My grandfather was Ronald Cooper and his daughter (my Aunt) was Miss Susan Cooper - until she married of course... How's that for a co-incidence! Title: Re: Flatback Caper...? Post by: Jim on March 30, 2007, 07:16:15 PM i work with bob cooper and used to work with dean cooper(no relations)

Title: Re: Flatback Caper...? Post by: Anna on April 01, 2007, 10:32:14 AM The first section of the track is called "Miss Susan Cooper", written by a Ronald Cooper, but I'm sure I'd have been told if it was my grandfather...

Listen to Lark In The Morning from L&L, tap your foot to 2 beats in a bar in the first tune, then carry on with the same beat into the second tune.....or just ask a drummer :) Title: Re: Flatback Caper...? Post by: MPinelli on April 04, 2007, 12:18:35 AM Anna, there was some discussion several months ago regarding Flatback in the "8 stringers" thread in Musician Talk. I learned Flatback on mando from Songbook 2 last year. It was a fantastic experience learning to play it. As I stated in the 8 stringers thread I'd love to record it with guitar and bass but with all the sig changes etc I'm really unsure how to go about making a seamless recording, being that I'm a extreme novice at recording.
I guess I just have to sit down and try and see what happens. :) |
