Bob Seger - Turn the page - v1.0

The latest version of this song is Bob Seger - Turn the page - v1.5.

This is the only song from Bog Seger that I know yet it's been in my head for many years. The saxophone line is awesome and I was reluctant to try to record this song exactly because of that with the obvious solution of falling back to the keyboard...

Keyboard - saxophone

I didn't even try learning the saxophone for this song. I just searched for a good Native Instruments sample and found it right in the factory library. See the recording sheets for more details. I just focused on the primary saxophone sections but there's a lot more nuance to it, just pay attention to the second verse onward. Maybe I'll deal with this in the future with an updated recording.

Keyboard - lead piano

When deciding to make the recording, I was firmly convinced that this instrument is a guitar. But after watching a few videos of live recordings I matched it to the Breakfast in NY Scarbee sample which I have previously used for recording Time.

Keyboard - rhythm piano

Similarly to the lead piano, I chose a variation of the Scarbee Vintage Keys sample pack.

Vocals

I struggled a lot with getting the higher register of the final section into a workable state. This is the best I could achieve at this point of my vocals learning path.

Drums

I enjoyed learning the buildup of the drums. I focused a lot on keeping the tempo constant. I discarded the first version recorded in July and kept the Sep version instead.

Bass

A basic bass line following the chord progression. I didn't go into much depth here.
