Middle Class Twit----------------------------------------------------------------------------From: kevinmoore@cruz.com (Kevin Moore)EC loves to take a regular chord and play it with the third in the bassinstead of the root-like a D with an F on the bottom. I once read aninterview with Paul McCartney where they asked him what it was about BrianWilson`s Pet Sounds that he drew on for inspiration during his Sgt. Pepperperiod, and he said "Brian would take a C chord and play a G in the bass."You can find these "5th in the bass" chords all through the songs ofMcCartney and Brian Wilson. I haven`t transcribed that much EC yet, but Iknow he likes the 3rd and 7th quite a bit. Steely Dan & Co. take the wholething even farther by putting notes in the bass which aren`t even in thechord at all, like an F chord with a G in the bass going to a G chord witha C in the bass. Or an A chord with a G in the bass.But I digress! The chord is Sulky Girl is a D chord, but with an F in thebass. At the beginning of the Bridge he sings: "Sul...ky Girl" and right on"Girl" he plays the D/F chord. So D IS the right chord, but putting thatF in the bass is what makes it sound so cool. Then he does it again on"cry" in "when you cry". What happens after that is wild, and I`m not surewhat the guitar is doing, but the bass is going C C E C F E C. I think theguitar is just playing C to F to C, switching to F when the bass does.What a great song-and as with most great songs, the bassline is a melody,not just a bunch of chord roots. The next part is great.It`s like money in the bank (bass: C E C F E C)Your expression is blank (bass: C C E F E C)But while the chance appears (bass: C C F C F)I think your chords are right, except maybe it goes C F C instead of F CF-my mail program has everything so mixed up that I can`t tell what goeswith what anyway.But I digress-when it goes to the little vamp on sulky girl, the bassplayer does the third in the bass trick again, this time on the C chord.The bass goes: G G F F E D C, with the E hitting right when the C chordcomes in.Earlier in the song, on the chorus there`s another hint of 3rd in the bass.On "hold your tongue" the bass plays F D G.The hardest part for me to hear is "never been that strong". The bass hereis just wicked! My trick for picking out hard basslines is to record the cdonto a 2 speed tape deck at the slow speed and then listen to it at thefast speed. This makes Mssr. Costello sound like Alvin the Chipmunk, but italso brings the bassline up exactly one octave into the guitar`s range andmakes the pitches very clear. The only problem is when the bass startsplaying really fast, like he`s playing here.Oh-wait-there`s the McCartney chord! On the "though" of "although" the bassis running up off of an E, so at the moment the guitar hits A, the bass ison E, the fifth.Here`s another trick: rest your finger on pause and hit it right after hesays "although" and let the sound of it roll around in your head in theensuing silence. God I love Elvis Costello! Have you ever heard that songthat Prince wrote called "I Love You More Than I Did When You Were Mine"?.It was covered by Cindy Lauper on her first album. Not that I`m a giant CLfan, mind you, but what she said "I know" in "I know....that you`re goin`with another guy..." it killed me. I love that song. Anyway, "I know" isthe exact same rhythm, notes and rhyme as "Although" in this song, but ECtakes it a step further by putting the E in bass.But I digress. On "never been that strong" the bass player, I think, goes DD C B A G, so we`ve got D, D/C, G/B, and then he runs down to the root ofthe G.This is that 7th in the bass I was talking about. A D chord with a C in thebass. This kind of chord loves to have the bass go down one fret to a chordwith the third in the bass: D/C to G/B. EC loves this progression and doesall sorts of exceedingly clever things with it.But i digress-there`s one more third in the bass chord right at the end ofthe chorus. When he sings "I`m sorry to say that you knew all along" thechords are like you have them, G A D G, but after the 2nd G chord comes theD/F again, on its way down to Emi A Emi Fmi.But wait! If anyone has actually read this far, HOW WOULD YOU INTERPRET THELYRICS???p.s. If you listen to Pony Street -"If you`re going out tonight..." then on"How can you be" is the McCartney chord again, G/D. Then on "When you layour pretty pal" (is that the words?) he goes to Ami with E in the bass. TwoMcCartney chords in a row!-I haven`t heard that since Pet Sounds. Trysinging that part of the song with just regular G and Ami-it just doesn`tmake it. So-maybe elvis has been listening to the Beach Boys! God-I hope hedoesn`t listen to the words!!!
