You have a wonderful touch and feel, and it was a really interesting idea. You might want to check some of the melody notes though. Keep it up, great idea!😊

This is a great interpretation. I will add that the genders or identity and point of views of the protagonist might be more ambiguous than you think. Steely Dan has been known to take some really unique perspectives as far as their characters. Notice how there is no use of pronouns indicating gender. I have always considered that this might be from the perspective of a female bartender or waitress having a soft spot for a young street hooligan getting involved with a nasty (drug) scene. I also think that this might be a prologue (on the low) from Fagen to Becker who was developing a really bad habit that comes to full fruition by the time the Gaucho Album was being created. If you listen to the song, "Gaucho" it has the same type of complaintive narrative (longing for a lover or close friend/ambiguous gender) to stop falling for something "bad" and come back to the protagonist (something "good").

Hell of a bridge on this composition

@zachnoland 14 күн бұрын

It's based on the bridge in Kurt Weill's "Speak Low," which was based on some Ravel composition according to Walter Becker. Haven't been able to figure it out.

The lack of volume could be the lack of a compressor or a pre-amp, but specially a comp imo, I remember X Japan bassist Taiji Sawada (Japanese Heavy Metal band) used a Killer Dagger bass with both JJ and PJ config and most people who own the bass say the exact same that it is just not loud enough, so a comp and a pre-amp combo fixes that issue

It kind of does, Walter falls for his love (the meth cooking buisness) and it leads him down a path of violence and when a man challenges his love (hank) he gets him killed and is forced to flee only to return once again dying in the arms of his love (the meth lab)

Great tutorial! Is that tape on the Jazz bass pickups? If so, any particular reason?

@DrakeMartin 3 ай бұрын

Thank you! Yeah, I put take over most of by bass pickups. I play with very low action and often use a lot of force plucking the strings. The tape prevents the string from making contact with the magnet in the pickup, which makes a loud pop noise. Just a fun little preventative measure.

@sumaer9449 3 ай бұрын

off topic musical question about this song rather than your analogy. Does this song have a chorus? It seems that the only candidate is sort of an alteration of the verse melody- (masterful but somehow also not so conventionally chorusy!). Weird but I need an answer, please!!!! What I am thinking is the sections starting with One night a wild young cowboy came in 0:48 and the section starting "Out through the back door of Rosa's I ran" 1:45 (and I like the rhyme in "I caught a GOOD ONE it looked like it COULD RUN".) Man what a fantastic song this is...and the guitar accompanying is so perfect that I cannot imagine the song without all that!

@jaxonklaus838 5 ай бұрын

I've listened to the entire album more times than I can remember lol, and I feel like most Marty Robbins Gunfighter songs stylistically don't really have choruses. Songs like Running Gun or The Master's Call have little titular refrains, especially Running Gun, but I think El Paso is the only "true ballad" in that album, because lyrically it more resembles an epic poem than a song. I agree though, it's such a well written song, and you can see its DNA in so many other western songs written after

@etamommy 5 ай бұрын

@@jaxonklaus838 thanks - I will have to listen to some of the songs off the record that you mention like the Master’s Call and Running Gun to hear what you mean!

@DrakeMartin 5 ай бұрын

It’s more of an A B structure. The main section “out in the west Texas town of El Paso” is more similar to a chorus with that other section acting like a bridge. Similar to jazz/showtune structure.

@etamommy 5 ай бұрын

@@DrakeMartin why is the verse melody to you more like a chorus. And why would the twice repeated alteration to the chorus (which to me is a blessed relief melodically - along with the wonderful classical guitar accompaniment ) to you more a bridge than a chorus?
