Griffinator Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 "A Really Nice Clambake" - any chance anyone's got a basic chord chart for this one? Don't ask, purpose is farrrrr too weird to explain.

Sven Golly Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 They've got that tune at SheetMusicDirect; $3.99, but you can see the first page free, that might be enough for you. Needs the Scorch plugin to view. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aidan Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 It might be an outdated version of Scorch. Go the Sibelius site to download the latest version.

Griffinator Posted July 6, 2009 Author Share Posted July 6, 2009 Got it, thanks. Might have to go ahead and spring the $4, although that looks like a really, really "easy piano" rendition...

ELP71 Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 Well, its a pretty simple song. Weasels ripped my flesh. Rzzzzzzz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Griffinator Posted July 6, 2009 Author Share Posted July 6, 2009 It is, but from what I listened to in the Y/T renditions of Carousel, there are a lot of interesting passing chords that didn't show up on that score. I may just ear it out as best as I can from those clips and wing it... A bunch of loud, obnoxious music I USED to make with friends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, you did ask for a "basic chord chart". I was thinking it would be a good starting point; even just the first page might get the ball rolling, but it wouldn't be sufficient for anything beyond the skeleton of the tune... Wonder if it's in any of the "Real" books out there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Griffinator Posted July 6, 2009 Author Share Posted July 6, 2009 Well, it gave me a key, which is always a good starting point. A bunch of loud, obnoxious music I USED to make with friends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Ferris Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 Yeah, it's not a tune jazz guys play, in fact I've never even heard of it. I just looked in my 640 page "Ultimate Broadway Fakebook" (Hal Leonard). Probably at least 50 R&H tunes in there but not that one. https://soundcloud.com/dave-ferris https://www.youtube.com/@daveferris2709 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Griffinator Posted July 6, 2009 Author Share Posted July 6, 2009 That's pretty impressive, actually. Everyone knows "You'll Never Walk Alone" and "June Is Bustin' Out All Over" from same musical, but few have ever heard this one. A bunch of loud, obnoxious music I USED to make with friends.

Sven Golly Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 Sorry, should've mentioned that I meant one of the dozens of "Real" or "Fake" books that are genre-specific, like the one Dave cited above. It's Monday, what can I say? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Griffinator Posted July 6, 2009 Author Share Posted July 6, 2009 Death Metal show tune? Pretty much where I'm going with it. Will be using it for the closing credits for the upcoming episode. Figured we're already going to be goofing on the Elvis movie by the same name in the opening sequence, thought it would be more humorous to go after R&H for the close, especially since "Clambake" from the Elvis movie was less a song and more a horrid quote-fest - everything from "Shortnin' Bread" to several of Elvis' own songs...

It's Monday, what can I say? It's funny, as I go back and listen to the thing again, apparently I was imagining more than was there - even the melodies are pretty much basic chordal tones. I may just throw out everything but the vocal rhythm and just destroy the thing. Even the stodgiest of traditionalists around here probably wouldn't complain...

ProfD Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 I believe this is the overall direction of music. Regardless of style/genre, any tune will be fair game to flip providing the musos are interested in doing so. Good luck Griff.

Griffinator Posted July 11, 2009 Author Share Posted July 11, 2009 So I ended up springing for that chord chart, and it seems I was right about all the nifty passing chords - they just didn't show up until later in the song. Anyway... The evil deed is done.

Griffinator Posted July 11, 2009 Author Share Posted July 11, 2009 PS: My rendition only includes the first two choruses and the verse between, so no need to study the entire piece to get your reference (for those who have never heard this song)...

Griffinator Posted July 11, 2009 Author Share Posted July 11, 2009 I like your flip better, Griff. Did you do all the tracks? Yes sir. It actually rolled off quite nicely. I used a lot of what were intended to be passing chords between the ii-V-I as primary chords to give it a much darker feel. A bunch of loud, obnoxious music I USED to make with friends.
