There are a lot of books on the market offering licks in the funk/fusion style but this book goes a lot further. The 16 challenging compositions by renowned Australian guitarist Peter O'Mara cover a variety of tempos and grooves and are presented using a real rhythm section (from Klaus Doldinger's Passport) to achieve maximum authenticity. Rhythm guitar riffs are integrated into the overall groove and there is plenty of room for improvisation as well. The audio play-along tracks are presented in an order of increasing complexity. CD 1 contains complete recordings of all instruments so that you can hear how each track can sound. CD 2 omits all guitar parts so that you can play along with the rhythm section and create your own soli and rhythm parts. MIDI files of all compositions are also included on CD 2.

Fanfare Band - Grade 3

SKU: BT.AMP-046-020

Composed by John Miles. Arranged by Philip Sparke. Anglo Music Midway Series. Pop & Rock. Set (Score & Parts). Composed 2002. Anglo Music Press #AMP 046-020. Published by Anglo Music Press (BT.AMP-046-020).

Born in Jarrow, northeast England, in 1949, John Miles was something of a child prodigy, learning the piano from the age of five. In the early ’60s he persuaded his father to buy him a guitar and by the end of the decade he had joined a semi-professional band, The Influence. The group soon disbanded and by 1969 Miles was recording with his own group, The John Miles Band, releasing a dozen singles in the early ’70s. In 1975 Miles decided to move to London and secured a deal with Decca Records. By October that year, a newly formed band, John Miles and Co, had released their debut single, Highfly, but their greatest hit, which stormed the British charts in March 1976, was Music.

In 1976 bestormde het nummer Music van de band John Miles and Co de hitparades. Music, vaak bekritiseerd als pompeus en hoogdravend in een periode die steeds meer de kant van de punk opging, was in feite typisch Britsetechnopop en daarbij een bepalende plaat voor die tijd, samen met nummers als Queen’s Bohemian Rhapsody. Met veel gevoel voor dynamiek en dramatiek werkt deze ode aan de muziek nog altijd aanstekelijk.

M usic, ein Hit aus den bewegten 70er-Jahren, ist einer der Titel, die diese Ära nachhaltig geprägt haben. Leise und laut, gefühlvoll und dramatisch, zieht diese Hymne an die Musik in der Bearbeitung von Philip Sparke auch heute Orchester und Zuhörer unweigerlich in ihren Bann.

E’ con Music, il suo più grande successo, che John Miles (1949) conquista le hit-parade inglesi nel marzo 1976. Espressiva, potente e dinamica, questa canzone è un magnifico inno alla musica. L’arrangiamento di Philip Sparke è fedele alla versione originale.
