Presentation transcript:

Ray Charles

First Recollection What’d I say Really moved me Not so difficult – just a blues but lots to it. Done in the key of E – good for guitar. Next 2 slides have harmony and words.

Next slide has bass part Ray played this on piano. Fender Rhodes sound. If in a band have guitar and bass double this part. This outlines 3 notes of the chord, the root, 5 th and b7 of each chord.

Play in 1 st position

Secondary Melodic Idea This happens every other time. It is a rhythmic figure comprised of the root and the b7 of each chord. 1 st one is in 1 st position, 2 nd is up at 7 th position. Either work fine.

This is a backup part. Could also do an octave higher.

The fill at the end 2 ways to play. It is just an E7 arpeggio Same idea as ending line to “I Feel Fine” by James Brown and Jose Feliciano’s version of “Light My Fire”. Again the Chord rules.

Your Cheatin’ Heart Great feel Written by Hank Williams (Sr). One of Ray’s country hits. Does have a blues feel. Chords are very traditional country: I IV and V and one time to the II7 not minor II7 but a dominant chord. Very common in Country music! In C; –I = C –IV = F –V = G –II = D

Hit The Road Jack Whole song is Am G F E Similar at the time to Walk Don’t Run More modern would be like Stray Cat Strut

Solo to Hit The Road Jack This is totally in Am Easiest scale to use is the A minor pentatonic. One problem is when on the F chord but since it passes so fast it should work. Could also use the A Blues scale with the same caveat.

Born To Lose One of my favorite feel songs Again a Country tune with a Blues Feel

Unchain My Heart This song is in a minor key. Again feel is everything. End timing is 1 2 (& 3) & 4 & | 1

Georgia Not what most people think. Song is about the State – where Ray was from. But it can be felt like a love song. Interesting progression and play with major and minor. I will write the chord voicings on the board.

You Don’t Know Me Another country ballad that Ray turns into more of an R & B song with the feel. Make sure that you accent beats 2 and 4 to give that backbeat feel to this piece. There are some substitutions that can be put in to really spruce this up.

A You give your hand to me A7 And then you say, "Hello." D And I can hardly speak, Eb dim7 My heart is beating so. A And anyone can tell F#mBm You think you know me well. EA D A Well, you don't know me. E7 (no you don't know me) Some substitutions that can spice this up a bit. Explaination: A to D can usually put an A7 in between to make it a V7 of D then on D back to A the Ebdim7 is used as a passing chord to lead back to A. The F#m is the relative minor of A so it works as a substitute, then leads easily to Bm (it is the V of B). Bm is the II in A and leads to the V. Those two chords are fairly interchangeable.
