Jared,
I was looking at some past issues of Bass Player magazine. In November 2007 they have a piece on Learn to play - Roundabout. If you can't find it anywhere, just say so and I'll copy it and send it to you.

Jared,

HERE is a video version lesson of Roundabout at Bass Player TV.

After you arrive at this page from the navigation click on Lessons then Yes: Roundabout.
Enjoy the site if you haven't already discovered it.

Play it Healthy!

Ok Rich, send it to me in, like, an e-mail or through mail?

Okay, I'll snail mail it. I don't have it in electronic form for an e-mail, just a paper copy. E-mail me your mailing address and put Alembic in the subject (I get lots of junk mail).
Rich

Well, see, I'm not really able to give out my mailing address for personal reasons

Jared,
You had mentioned sending it through the mail so I thought that would be acceptable. What about a parent's work address or some place other than your home address that you would be comfortable with? A guitar shop that you go to, etc?

Jared,
Follow the link Art provided you on June 18th his post # 364. Click on lessons then Yes: Roundabout. A picture is worth a thousand words.
The song is broken down riff by riff with Brian Fox playing it solo on bass - nothing else to get in the way of hearing it. Let us know if you can find the clip, and if it helps you.
Rich, you can't send anything if he doesn't give you an address.

Kris, I found the Brian Fox video to be pretty cool. I have played Roundabout for years and haven't noticed a hidden bass part that was mentioned. I want to listen to Yes in the House of Blues (the only Roundabout recording I have) and see if it is there. It is CS playing on it but they don't play it the original way. There is a major part of the song missing. I'll have to see if I can pick it out.
I can't send a copy unless I have an address, even if it has to get to Jared in a roundabout way (nyuk, nyuk, Elwood). I hope Jared can come up with a way for me to mail it that he is comfortable with. I have 2 sons about his age so I completely understand playing it safe with personal information.
Jared, BRAVO to you on being careful. Let me know how I can mail it to you and I will.
