Ruby Tuesday on piano

This is my cover of "Ruby Tuesday" by the Rolling Stones. I did all the parts myself.

First I made the live video recording of the piano part and the lead vocal part. Second, using my digital piano, I created tracks for an upright [bowed] bass, acoustic guitar, electric bass and drums. Third, I sang and recorded the harmonizing vocal part. And fourth, NOT using my digital piano, but instead a real alto recorder (i.e., that flute-like instrument), I performed the integral recorder part. Then I mixed them altogether with the video recording and voila, a decent-sounding performance.

That was awesome! Where did you get the sheet music

@appleinthesky1

No sheet music. Just got the basic chord progression from online, memorized it and played-by-ear along with the original recording.

Oh my God.. I was so skeptical when this video came on my recommend list, as i love the original so much, but i must say that this was brilliant.. absolutely amazing, you've captured it so well with the bass, recorder etc and your singing ain't half bad either..

Big Thumbs Up..!! :)

Thanks. :-)

That is GREAT! A beautiful song and you captured it on piano. I notice you changed key to get away from the original flatted key. I will study it closely. I love this song and your version sounds perfect.

Not sure about the key change; I learned it, in part, by playing along with the original recording.

Thanks though; glad you liked it. I had fun recording it and multi-tracking the various vocals and intruments

u should do a lesson for this song

[wallywaldo2]

Well done. An excellent cover of a strangley haunting stones song. Not many rock bands use a bowed double bass AND a school recorder in the same track!!

VERY NICE you sound just like the lead singer of the rolling stones & you play it so nicely on the piano. I do my own version on keyboard & I sing it but I do it a bit like Melanie. I sing it in key F. Cheers from Rich
