Ok ill check it out. I have made a new backing track which I will be sending out once I get some time. I have transcribed the Bass and on the Chord that you say Adim7. Is that possible if the Bass is playing an F#? From my knowledge of theory I always thought the Bass is the Root of every chord obviously other than rootless voicings.

IF you could upload your source of information and make it valid that would be great! I wouldn't mind getting the correct voicing for the strings as well.

nice and smooth my friend. I see you are playing at the start a Gm7, Cm7 then Dm7 BUT at 0:09 you play another chord that replaces the Gm7, please tell us what it is?????

[lewybrown]

It's still a G - 7 chord, just a different voicing. R D string - 5th G string - b7 B string - b3 E string Does that make sense?

[lewybrown]

Boongg - I can't agree with you anymore! :-)

Great! Nile Rogers is the best rhythm guitarist that ever held a Strat in history.

realyl good, can you help me ? what is the first riff? ( the muted ) ? i have a bad ear :(

@lewybrown If you're playing a full A dim 7 chord.. the F# is the 7th. But since it resolves to a G minor chord.. you can think of the A dim7 over F# as an inversion of a D7b9. Remember, Nile hardly ever plays full barre chords.So if the bass and keys are taking care of the bottom and the middle, he plays the upper partials of the chord. Think about it.D7b9 is D..F#..A..C.Eb. . A dim7 is A.. C...Eb..Gb Gb and F# are same note. Think of the chord as D7b9 over F#, resolving to Gmin

What if you did another awesome nile rodgers cover. This time Chic - I want your love ?

[MrLegendarygeek]

No guitar tabs on the net... Shit I must do it myself :(

[DJRckwl]

@denis213 Actually, he didn't switch styles right there. He switched to playing the lead guitar riff of the song. But I do agree, Awesome!

[Thelis]

Nice playing dude !

[megavega4]

@lewybrown Bernard is definitely playing an F# as passing tone. If the chord is A dim7.. then he is playing the double flatted 7th. An A dim7 chord is voiced A ... C... Eb.. Gb.. which is enharmonic to F#. Classic Bernard...
