The BeAtTuls:
-Yesterday -You've Got To Hide Your Love Away -Something -I'm a Loser, (If you can hit a good LOW note) -Strawberry Fields Forever, (beautiful and cool on guitar). Lennon has one or two acoustic versions on Anthology, from the first demo tracks. -Working Class Hero -Blackbird -A Day In The Life (Use a slide for the two climbing sections!)
-Imagine,
-Mule of Kintire, Bring bagpipe player! Trust me, it will go over.
-Pick a song or two from Harrison's "All Things Must Pass" album!
-Ringo's No no no no song.
-Play a Mandolin and do Paul's recent "Dance Tonight". Easy,,,fun. will get some feet stomping. -If you're feeling rockin, try "Smile Away"! -Or do what we're doing now,,,a REAL slow Maybe I'm Amazed. Sexy and allows the lines to be expressed in a blues style. Yeah!! We like it. Don't we Iggy?
Lots more of course. Find your range,,,your best high note that won't ever let you down. Make that note the note for the highest note in any given song, and then figure out what key that would have to be played in. (Finding out what chord would go along with that high note of a certain song,,,then just continue the song from that chord/highest note, and presto,,,,you found what key it should be in for YOU. Keys don't matter, but the singer hitting the notes sure do, and sounding good hitting them. Should never strain/go above your range just because you always learned a song in a certain key from the record,,,or because the G or A or D was too easy to ignore. But that could be ignoring your vocal,,,which is what is mainly heard and thought about when being judged at places. YOU got to sound right for you. I can't do Paul in his keys for some songs,,,,so I do it wherever,,,,and it becomes a normal sound instantly,,for I can SING the sucker in my keys, and have similar tones.
Hope that all helps! John
