The Beatles Should Have Used the Tuba!

[Doc]

Here’s a Beatles tune. More fun projects with my band mate.

Blokespecial 186 (makes me sound halfway decent)
Blokepiece Imperial

[Three Valves]

One of my favorite McCartney bass lines as well.

I noodle on Beatles tunes all the time when I'm warming up before rehearsals. Often other players will join in and it becomes a bit of a Beatles jam session.

But if you really want to hear the Beatles done right with absolutely outstanding tuba and tuba taken to another level --> listen to this group Rhythm & Brass. Their Sitting in an English Garden is Beatles done right. Charles Villarrubia is one outstanding tuba player.

I will check it out!

I really like all of your tunes, Bill, and I'd like to hear you do a few on your F tuba - possibly voiced all in-the-staff.
===================================
Delayed TWO seasons (due to _____), I'm playing a pops concert (with a really good cover band - a band that has done TWO themed pops concerts with us before) that is (except for ONE actual "Beatles" song) a whole bunch of music that McCartney, Lennon, Harrison, and Starr recorded INDIVIDUALLY, after the break-up.

It's a pretty thick book...ie. LOTS of notes, and not all that many rests. (I got it in the mail from the symphony office - two years ago - and had to turn it back in.) The arranger/bass player always wants the cimbasso on everything, and - when I "put it to it" - looks back at me and grins ear-to-ear.

The Statler Brothers tune and You Took Advantage of Me were on F. But I’ll do some on F tuba specifically in the staff.
