Late #Straturday - But we can't get that back

▶️ Watch on 3Speak


We've been watching a TV show at our house called Dr Death. It's a "true" story about an American spinal surgeon that was less than competent with just a few issues.

It has some big names in it: Joshua Jackson, Christian Slater and Alec Baldwin. Before I got in to IT many many years ago I worked in an operating suit at one of Victoria major trauma hospitals. Nothing important but I was in there. The TV show is really well done and keeps you watching, but I have to say it all seems a bit too much. There is a documentary about the real Dr. Christopher Duntsch which I'm looking forward to watching after.

So that's a pretty bad segway to the Jackson 5 song I want you back, but here we are....

Great song with more than I thought in there. There are 3 parts. One is an octave of Ab.... Aaalllll the way through. The second is a bass kind of guitar part that pretty much follows the base line. Part number 3 was seriously cool. In the recorded version it's hard to pick up apart from the first part of each 'round' with double stop thirds kind of thing. Listening to the isolated guitar separate guitar tracks is the best, you can hear all the little bits and pieces.

I know that Steve Lukather did a lot of Michael Jackson's guitar work, but this is really early on and just checking there were 3 parts and 3 guitarists (Louis Shelton, David T. Walker, Don Peake). Maybe it was done live, there was a lot of 'bleeding' between tracks. You could hear a lot of guitar in the drum tracks.

Hope you are all well and enjoy the track! Any feedback or suggestions welcome.

Got to have respect for the session guys. They have to be able to play anything without too much preparation. Make a good groove is not so easy, but you did a good job. Such a funky song.

!PIZZA !LUV

Yeah, limited takes and editing. Just have to walk in and play along and hope for the best. YouTube and 3Speak would have very different content if you only got one take, certainly my channels 😁

Some of my videos are one take, as the one yesterday was, but others take much longer. Sometimes the computer plays up, but it's usually me messing up. Players like Lukather must have a reputation for reliability to get so much work.
