Al Jarreau - Spain (I Can Recall)

[Satoshikuun]

I heard this in Popeye's while I was waiting for my order.. been searching a week for this.

[WilliamTornoeGuitar]

Hey does anyone know on which album i can find this? It is simply fantastic! I have been playing spain myself for sometime, but this really helps to develop. Thank you very much for the upload ;)

[jravell]

@WilliamTornoeGuitar On his album called This Time, but also on any one of his compilations, I assume.

[MrJimbodrummer]

God bless Chick Corea for writing this amazing tune

[zooby11isbambam]

this is when singers understood that they were still supposed to be musicians, not just some fuckin pop icon. don't get me wrong, Al jarreau was also a pop icon, but he kept his integrity and passion for music intact. that's what singers (and musicians in general) lack today, is an honest passion for music. singers today will tell you that their whole lives they've wanted to be famous, a "star". know what al jarreau would say? my whole life ive wanted to be a part of music. THATS the difference.

[ketusia16]

@zooby11isbambam  oh yeah !!!!!!! :*

[zooby11isbambam]

@ketusia16 thanks for the positive feedback lol

[Sincerelyrj]

freddy washington,, i beleive the bass player name is,,

[jravell]

@Sincerelyrj No, it's Abraham Laboriel.

[Merseymike]

The best singer in the whole world ever

[risefortich]

@Merseymike ; yes, in his genre, no doubt. do you know anything about what he is doing today or how he is doing;

[freekdevos]

It's in the real book as well. Sjek it ouw!

[evenbass]

Does anybody know who the personell on this tune is? I'm searching for the bass player in particular. But also the other muscicians..

[jravell]

@evenbass Well, Wikipedia says it's Abraham Laboriel. And that's clearly Steve Gadd on the drums. But the rest of the personnel list is long so it's hard to tell who plays on what track.

[catboyzee]

@evenbass The bassist was definitely Abe Laboriel, Latin electric bass is his speciality.

[risefortich]

@catboyzee what other artists has he played with?

[george6900]

Al Jarreau is my higher power.......



[MrDyadya]

Amazing keyboard solo-Bobby Lyle!!!!!

[fisteberg]

This song is rare.I heard it a few weeks ago for the first time.The words are good and the rythm is fantastic!it looks like a festival song.A romantic but festival song.

[Ravenelvenlady]

Spectacular!

[TheJabberwock]

this song is my childhood!

[multyhappykiller]

[flossythedog]

Hey, i can't seem to work out the notes for 'Yesterday I can say, I get a kick every time they play, that Spain again' could someone with a better ear help out just trying to work out the melody on guitar. Cheers, Rick

[jravell]

@flossythedog Don't you know that the Ultimate Guitar website is your friend? I can't seem to post URLs here but google them, I found one or two good tabs of this tune.

[flossythedog]

@jravell thanks mate, had no idea this song was that popular that it would be on UG, brilliant song and not a bad tab! thanks a lot :D

[risefortich]

@jravell You did it ; sounds like right off of the CD! do more!

[jravell]

@risefortich It is right off the CD!

[kvist34]

Amazing drummer

[jravell]

@kvist34 That'd be Steve Gadd.

[Frisbieinstein]

Greatness. That synth solo is the bomb.

Some of the best jazz lyrics ever.

@Maxwellconinious Hey Max, I just got home so I will be tired at jam tomorrow.

[Maxwellconinious]

@FalcorSachmo That was a good jam. We came up with some pretty good riffs, wouldn't you say?

[kidnflorida]

If I had a tenth of his talent, I would be amazing.

[woodenhoops]

Agree. Thanks for posting.

[MarcusHK1]

Many thanks for posting this. It's one of Al Jarreau's best songs and wasn't available so far on YT in a good version.

[jravell]

@MarcusHK1 I know, that's why I did it.
