Dave Brubeck Quartet - Take Five (Played for Lead Bass Guitar)

Me playing/covering Dave Brubeck's jazz clssic 'Take Five' on Bass Guitar. I learnt and transcribed the whole piece by ear. Really smooth saxophone line and a great starting introduction song for kiddies who wanna get into jazz music.

I play a few sloppy lines with wrong notes in a few instances but i think this cover is ok for now. I play the saxophone solo note for note.

Im using a cheap Yamaha RBX170 through a Hartke VX2150 combo.

Nice transcribing and playing! Congratulations! ... but ... maybe I'm wrong, but I think that the D string is slightly out of tune. Check out the Eb at 13th fret ...

Im thinking about learning the bass and im planning on starting out with that bass. Is it any good for beginners?

Where you get the tab

[theextinction2330]

bass is so much better then guitar in my opinion.it has a deeper sound, frets are bigger, and it sounds funkier and its more important

[theextinction2330]

cool, i learned a different way... not sure if its right cause i learned it by ear.

Great job.

Also, P/J pu combo plus 24 frets. SWEET.

Youre out of rythm almost in all the hard parts . To fix that take five :P and study each part slow at first and when you get the grip of it then speed up ..

Also try to tune first before recording something :P

Otherwise pretty good . This is not flaming, just honest advice from one to another musician , don't crusify me :S

Fantastic, D seems to be a little out of tune but that doesn't take away from the great playing. I think I might dig out my bass and learn your version :-)

[jamesha175]

oh for god's sake write your own signature tune.

nice job though!

[spankyjoe88]

Cool cover man, have you put that tab up on line anywhere, would love to learn it but can only find it in sheet music form

[SuperCartiel]
