I know all, and what I don't know, I shall learn and share with the ignorant masses on NS

Easy one to start with...

Who were the Mightyhandful?

Jesus, easy one?

That is obscure shit. I had to take a brief exploration but I found that they are what I knew vaguely as "The Five". A few Russian composers who started a movement to establish a "Russian" style of music. Heavily influenced Stravinsky.

Name the piano player who played with Train and eric clapton :D

From what band did The Hives spring forth?

From what hive did The Band spring forth?

The only pianist I know to have played with Clapton is Chuck Leavell, he also played with the Black Crowes, Rolling Stones, and Blues Traveler, so Train might be also be included.

All I know about the beginnings of the Hives is the omnipresence of a mysterious man named Mr Randy Fitzsimmons.

What is this guitar chord called?

That looks like some weird variation of E major, but I'm not sure it is a chord.

Of course its a chord. And yes, it's an inverted E major. But whats it called?

it isn't

You haven't answered mine yet. Do you admit defeat?

The Band?

Jungle Bush Beaters?
Ronnie Hawkins and the Hawks?

it isn't

Pfft. Any combination of notes is a chord. Whether or not it sounds good, of course, is a different story.

Actually in hindsight take off the low E string. There. Sounds good now.

Now what would you call it? You said any music related question Sussudio...

The Band?

Ronnie Hawkins and the Hawks?

No and no.

Dude... there are rules to chords. That one isn't a chord. I would know

Lets go with C 6th no5, an educated guess from one of my guitar books.

:D

Explain the words "aleatoric" and "contrapuntal" to me. (genuine question... I actually don't understand them.)

As for The Band,

I had to do a little research, but my last guess is The Canadian Squires

Dude... there are rules to chords. That one isn't a chord. I would know
Why not? Because it has discordant B and Bb?

Aleatoric is a style of music where the composer lets the music develop itself, like a luck of the draw. An example would be assigning each piano key a number and drawing numbers for the succession of notes.

I'll get back to you on the other one.

Why not? Because it has discordant B and Bb?
Because some combinations of notes ar no chord but just a combination of notes.

Are you suggesting that C - C# - D is a chord?

Explain the words "aleatoric" and "contrapuntal" to me. (genuine question... I actually don't understand them.)
Contrapuntal is where you have three or more melody and/or harmony lines moving in different directions to each other. Also called polyphony.

heres one for ya:

Who wrote the jingle "I wish I was an Oscar Mayer Weiner"?

My congratulations Siljhouettes, beat me to it and you are dead on.

oh yeah- and the same person wrote the jingle :

" I am stuck on Band Aid Brand cuz Band-aids stuck on me!"

Eadd11+

:D

Woo, finally, a name for the mystery chord!!!! (I seriously didn't know, not in any of my books and i'm not good enough to figure it out myself)

Why not? Because it has discordant B and Bb?

...which is what makes it sound cool.

Because some combinations of notes ar no chord but just a combination of notes.

Are you suggesting that C - C# - D is a chord?

Csus2?

Are you suggesting that C - C# - D is a chord?
Yes. Where do you get your definition of a chord? Where does it say that chords cannot be dissonant?

Csus2?
Csus2 = C-D-G

I'm not saying chords can't be dissonant. I'm just saying some combinations of notes are not chords

Csus2?
No, that's C, D, G.

Pfft. Damn. I cheated by using this www.jguitar.com website, but it lied. LOL

As for The Band,

WRONG! Announce your defeat!

What does "Sussudio" mean?

(voice from the crowd): Let's hear from the guy with a degree in Music Theory and who teaches music!

Yes ... let's ....

*clears throat*

Any combination of three or more notes, whether dissonant or harmonic, is, in fact, a chord. C-C#-D is, technically, a chord. It may not sound pleasant, but by all definitions, it is a chord.

Now ....

E - 0
A - 2
D - 2
G - 3
B - 0
E - 0

E - B - E - A# - B - E

That is an Edim5, most commonly used in Chicago Jazz, but can also be found in the late Romance era composers, such as Debussey.

That is all.

Now, if you're going to make a thread where you say you're going to answer some questions, then answer some questions!

Oh ... and don't ask me about bands. I really couldn't care less.

Alright, I give up on the Band, Sussudio is a really shitty Phil Collins song, and I'm the one to ask about bands.

Thanks, 'cause that's what I thought. (Though i've only been studying music for 3 years, and am only just beginning to touch on theory)



E - B - E - A# - B - E

Wow. Thanks a lot!

I just made it while playing around, and thought it sounded damn cool.

What would you call E - B - F - A# - B - E ?

Hell, What if i just muted all the strings that are open in those chords, then what would you call them.

Sorry for being difficult, but this is just one of those things that I just have to know. lol

I know all, and what I don't know, I shall learn and share with the ignorant masses on NS

What 2 producers came togeather to form the Itchy Trigger Finger Niggers on the Record label Stroid for its only 2 releases (coincidently named stroid001 and stroid002)

What label are these two most well know from and if you can, how about 2 or 3 more sublabels

;)

What are the main peculiar features of Pete Seeger's banjo style and prefered instruments?

Are you suggesting that C - C# - D is a chord?

At a guess I would say something like DMAJ7m7(no 3rd)(no5th), but there is doubtless a much more elegant way of expressing it.

What exactly was the Bob Dylan song "Silvio" about. And why was it made?

I don't know I'm asking you.

Hmm...lemme see...

What are the lyrics to "Against the Rest" by Knowledge?

That ought to keep you busy... :D

da da dee dee dah *held in a bass voice*

ID that one.

1) Who killed Kurt Cobain?

2) What are the lyrics to the Shins "Caring is Creepy"?

3) What are the actual lyrics to "Louie Louie"?

4) Which 60's band album was titled "Forever Changes"?

Kurt Cobain killed Kurt Cobain, don't give me that courtney love crap, she didn't hold the gun

I don't like putting lyrics on here, they are too long, however, Caring is Creepy and Louie Louie are two of my favorite songs. Against the Rest? Don't know anything about it.

Against the Rest? Don't know anything about it.

No worries, I picked the toughest thing I didn't know. Knowledge recorded about 10 songs (unfotunately - they had talent), only released on a tribute CD after the lead singer's suicide. The lyrics for "Against the Rest" are listed as "pending," and probably always will be. No amount of Googling has ever answered the question, so I figured it made a good challenge.

3) What are the actual lyrics to "Louie Louie"?


Which version?


Oh ... and I killed Cobaine ... he hated his fame and I was a fan ... it's my fault.

Which version?

I have a soft spot for the 'who needs love to have any fun/who needs love when you got a gun' version by Black Flag, which it must be admitted is a million miles away from the original calypso lyrics.

You mean there's someone else on these forums old enough to remember pre-Johnny Mnemonic Henry Rollins?! Oh thank all that is holy! We need our own forum ...

Oh yes, there's several of us if you look hard enough... of course in my not so humble opinion Rollins was the worst singer the band ever had, and I am still much happier listening to their earlier output with Keith Morris or Dez Cadena or even Chavo Pederast, but that's beside the point.

I have a couple of Rollins' spoken word albums and the man can't tell a story for shit. It's almost like he's trying to hard. I saw Black Flag when I was in High School only because a local band (Dead Horse) was opening for them and I wanted to see the locals.

I liked Rollins' stage presence and his delivery, but I knew his lyrics had to come from somewhere deeper than that jock lookin' MF could come up with.

Steve Winwood would be very unhappy to know that you've never heard of him.

The same can be said for the mighty John Mayall.

Hmm. Haven't heard his spoken word stuff, but to me, that sounds like he's trying to be a certain Mr. Biafra.
