"And I Love Her"

Backdated, archival post

---&---


I spent the last week or so figuring out the bass part to "And I Love Her."

There's a really interesting part transitioning from the second verse into the bridge (just before "A love like ours / Could never die").  At that point in the bass part, there's the same phrase that - on guitar - opens the song (B, E, D#, C#).  Without having learned the parts, I doubt I ever would have noticed that.

I'm still missing the arpeggiations in the guitar part, but I have learned two of them.  I'm still working on the others, but I think I'm pretty close.  Also, I might rush a note or two in the solo, and I think one or more of my instruments is slightly out-of-tune.
