Thats the beauty of the blues and blue note jazz. That juxtaposition of minor notes creating a melancholic but uplifting vibe. Musically, that dynamic often happens when you set a minor chord against a major chord.

You find this all over in jazz, but good example of this is Art Blakey’s A chant for Bu. Listen to the first few bars, the way the bass line and then the horns play a minor chord and the juxtapose it with a half note up to play a major chord. You don’t realise the first key is a blue note until it’s paired against the major key.

simple, but brilliant.

@Chief

I reckon we're about the same age (48)

Were you into that Electro scene that ran alongside early 80's hip hop ?

Roland 808 was the instrument that linked it all together.

Just had all the bomb the bass stuff and that on, later 80's.

So yes, although I'm older than you pal.

NWA, into De Le Soul and Cookie Crew now!

Bliss. Good Times.

This, by the way, I was going to my first Glastonbury to watch Pixies with SLF and De la Soul on the way down in the car.

And getting into The Proclaimers while I was there.

There was all the stuff about them being manufactured and not playing their own instruments etc. at the time.

My 08 Touareg still has a CD player in it. So that 'state of the art' 6 CD changer is currently stacked with the following:

Tribe Called Quest : Low end Theory
Kate Bush : Hounds of Love
Michael Jackson : Off the Wall
Goldie: Metalheadz
Portishead : Dummy
Herbie Hancock : Headhunters

I used to go to a Roller Disco when I was 11, in my first year of secondary school and they used to play this.

I was trying to impress a girl called Leanne Bishop, who was 3 years older than me ( a bid deal ) by skating with the 15/16 year old lads and one of them knocked me over and then ran over my fingers to this tune <laugh>

Wasn't it about 86?

You can't have been 11 if you're 48 now?

Anyway, **** it, those were great times.

In that year by the way, me and my mates (still are, always will be) went on our first holiday abroad. BAD were a go to tape at that time.

Was a backdrop to the whole two weeks.

So were Wham! and The Smiths of course.

I dunno, maybe it was my second year... I was 11 in 1985 when I started secondary school

But like you say, great times.

BAD is a gem of an album. I think that was 87 ?

I got some heat for it the last time I mentioned it on here <laugh> but that bass line on Club Tropicana is a fukin classic
