There’s nothing illegal about just asking in this group. But if by "modern" you mean stuff currently or recently popular, it is all under copyright. If you should find a place where it is offered free, I would assume that site is illegal, as downloading it would also be, strictly speaking. The copyright laws changed recently, and I’m not completely up to speed on them. It used to be that standard copyright was 27 years, renewable once (54 years total). International copyright was for the life of the composer, plus 50 years – generally a much longer time. At the expiration of either of those time frames, it became "public domain" – anyone can use it free. But I think I read that the newer laws are even more stringent, or for an even longer time.

Response:
You can go to Harmony-Central.com, they have a bunch of everything you might ever need. There are many places on line to get whatvever you want. I recommend searching on any of the seach engines, Google.com is one of the best, in my opinion. Beyond that You can purchase it off Ebay.com, both new and used, at reduced pricing. However, Take my word for it don’t mention The "f" word (free online), or trading around here. The first lesson I ever learned, is that people on this news group don’t care for trading, and are very in favor of copywrite laws. I most add that I have come to agree with the group. (that should save me from what happened last time, I think I was nearly banned from the news group). There are however Artists out there that find it acceptable to offer there lessons and insight for free, you will find many links to those sites, listsed thoughout this news group. I am in favor of this as well. I expect that as I improve to the piont were my knowledge is useful to others I will start a site as well, but for now I will llist some sights I have found that have a variety of guitar related stuff. I hope it helps: http://www.digevent.com/events/consumer/music/guitar_mania/ http://www.people.fas.harvard.edu/~desmith/guitar/guitar.htm http://www.guitar.net/ http://www.musicforkids.com/ http://www.guitarists.net/ http://www.harmony-central.com/ Anyone else?

I’ve seen sites with classical music, but not rock etc. Try google.

I’m going to sound like a bit of a snob here, so please forgive me. I’m not trying to get anybody’s back up, or even start a debate that’s been gone over a million times already. Does anybody know of any sites where I can find bass music transcribed as notation rather than TAB? I find TAB pretty useless unless I already know the piece of music in question, and even then I think the notated form is so much easier to read, but I haven’t yet come across any sites that offer this. Do they exist? Ta very much, Terry Blyth — http://www.tez.clara.co.uk

I have found that the easiest way is to download a midi file, there are loads of them, and to use Cakewalk to look at the dots, you can find this on lots of cover disks. The only problem is , that the music is produced by a synthesiser, I presume, and the each instrument is patched in. Now if the person producing the midi file gets the instruments mixed up, what you hear is not neccessarily the instrument to which it is patched. An example of this is Birdland, where the opening bottom end is patched to bass, but is in fact played on synth (OB1 if memory is right), but at least you can change is yourself, and even use it to produce your own music. I assume that you have a sound card etc. Regards Gareth ‘Most people would’nt know good music if it bit ‘em on the arse’ – Frank Zappa.

Here’s a suggestion based simply on the (possibly mistaken) assumption that your son-in-law is accomplished enough to improvise working from root notes. The Online Guitar Archive (OLGA) at www.harmony-central.com/Guitar/tab.html has mirror sites within it that contain both tabulature and chord progressions in plain text format of durn near every song on the face of the earth. (I’d also recommend the Cowpie Bunkhouse for Country stuff, but OLGA pretty much the exact same everything that Cowpie does, including country.) I’m a fairly accomplished ear player, especially when it comes to rock, but every now and then there’s a passage of a particular song that stumps me, and the OLGA tabs/chord progression offerings have helped immensely in these tight little spots (since the tabs also give the root note if the bare bones chord progressions don’t happen to be available for a particular song) and the root chords/notes are correct when comparing to what’s on record 99.99% of the time. Just a suggestion. Scott

The only problem is , that the music is produced by a synthesiser, I presume, and the each instrument is patched in. Now if the person producing the midi file gets the instruments mixed up, what you hear is not neccessarily the instrument to which it is patched. An example of this is Birdland, where the opening bottom end is patched to bass, but is in fact played on synth (OB1 if memory is right), but at least you can change is yourself, and even use it to produce your own music. I assume that you have a sound card etc. Regards Gareth ‘Most people would’nt know good music if it bit ‘em on the arse’ – Frank Zappa.

Here’s a suggestion based simply on the (possibly mistaken) assumption that your son-in-law is accomplished enough to improvise working from root notes. The Online Guitar Archive (OLGA) at www.harmony-central.com/Guitar/tab.html has mirror sites within it that contain both tabulature and chord progressions in plain text format of durn near every song on the face of the earth. (I’d also recommend the Cowpie Bunkhouse for Country stuff, but OLGA pretty much the exact same everything that Cowpie does, including country.) I’m a fairly accomplished ear player, especially when it comes to rock, but every now and then there’s a passage of a particular song that stumps me, and the OLGA tabs/chord progression offerings have helped immensely in these tight little spots (since the tabs also give the root note if the bare bones chord progressions don’t happen to be available for a particular song) and the root chords/notes are correct when comparing to what’s on record 99.99% of the time. Just a suggestion. Scott

I’m going to sound like a bit of a snob here, so please forgive me. I’m not trying to get anybody’s back up, or even start a debate that’s been gone over a million times already. Does anybody know of any sites where I can find bass music transcribed as notation rather than TAB? I find TAB pretty useless unless I already know the piece of music in question, and even then I think the notated form is so much easier to read, but I haven’t yet come across any sites that offer this. Do they exist? Ta very much, Terry Blyth — http://www.tez.clara.co.uk

I have found that the easiest way is to download a midi file, there are loads of them, and to use Cakewalk to look at the dots, you can find this on lots of cover disks.
