Re: Discussion of Eagles Documentary "History of the Eagles"
Can someone who knows how to play guitar (Austin...or anyone else!) talk to me about the part in the doc where they're writing Get Over It - Timothy's bass part. Is it as fast and difficult as it looks? He says something laughingly to Glenn about, "it's a 10-6" or something and Glenn says something about singing to that...???
Re: Discussion of Eagles Documentary "History of the Eagles"
I always wonder what he meant about the 10 to 6 and 5 to 6 when he said that Don after Don ask him do you want me sing or wait?
Re: Discussion of Eagles Documentary "History of the Eagles"
Great question. I'm not a theory guy (most of my heroes were selftaught and more old school by ear and that's how I went about it), but my guess is that it has something to do with the time signature or tempo of the song....
Get Over it is in "straight time", in a Chuck Berry type fashion. It's actually my favorite type of song to play over as far as lead guitar.
Re: Discussion of Eagles Documentary "History of the Eagles"
I remember Glenn describing Get Over It as 'Straight Chuck Berry: never play a seventh' on the doc.

And that's exactly what it is. Much like Johnny B Goode.

Is Timothy's "10 to 6 and 5 to 6" on YouTube?
Re: Discussion of Eagles Documentary "History of the Eagles"
It starts at around 27:00 here -

I was just wondering if that bass part is considered "fast" for someone who plays bass.
Re: Discussion of Eagles Documentary "History of the Eagles"
I think so yes, not unheard of but the right hand is definitely faster than usual.
Still don't know what 10-6/5-6 means.
Re: Discussion of Eagles Documentary "History of the Eagles"
I tried looking it up online, but I couldn't find anything on what 10 to 6 and 5 to 6.
What's a seven? I'm not good at music.

A seventh is a chord...can be minor or major.
