          Very true.

          I don't know if I'm alone is this but the stupid thing was that when they did start bringing out good guitar tab books for rock I would buy them fully expecting that meant I would be able to play it all by the following week.

          I don't know why I thought that. I wouldn't have bought Bach sheet music expecting to pop down the local church to play Toccata and Fugue in D minor.

          I'm not sure I ever learned anything faster or better from tab rather than doing it by ear. Judging by YouTube requests for tab in the comments it seems that kids all completely rely on tab these days - or maybe they're just being dumb like I was.

              Well. you must have the ability, not saying that you do not, but score is like script.

              It is to be used as a reference, either to help learn recitation, or as a place marker.
              When giving a speech (oral recitation of script) notes are used, in a play the scripts are used until the oral recitation can be recreated by memory.

              Someone that can read music, can read it all day long, and get what the author is communicating (if the author can write communicatively in music), but perhaps not play it in a compelling way. When music is recited, it is the same as script, either it is compelling or not. And sometimes that depends on the reciter and/or rector.


              There is oral communication and written communication. When writing an oral communicator's words who does not write the communication first, sometimes the nuances of the oral communication require script that has noted adaptations to express that reciter.

              For example:
              -------------
              212-07 3-01 31 ECU Rabbit with fox'a hand over his mouth.

              Fox: "AH SAID....."


              CUT TO:

              215-08 9-13 32 ECU Fox trying to scare o.s. rabbit.

              Fox: "....I'SE GONNA ROAST YOU - ON DAT
              FIRE! NOW!" Points o.s.


              CUT TO:

              225-05 4-00 33 CU Rabbit and Fox.

              Fox: "IS DAT SOMETHIN' TO LAUGH ABOUT?"


              CUT TO:

              ---------------------------

              Rabbit: Ain't dat terrible.



              Fox: Now wait a minute.
              Wait jes' a minute, Brer Rabbit.



              Fox: Maybe I better
              'splain something to you.



              Fox: I said, I'se gonna roast
              you... on dat fire! Now!



              Fox: Is dat somethin' to
              laugh about?

              ---------------------------

              Things looked very grim for the poor rabbit at that moment. He was so afraid he was shaking like it was cold. Then an idea that might just save him poped into his head. He began to laugh as loud as he could while Brer Fox was turning the spit. He was so surprised to hear this coming from the rabbit that he stoped what he was doing,took him away from the fire, and put his hand over the hystericaly laughing creature's mouth.

              “Now wait just a minute Brer Rabbit, maybe I need to do some explaining to you.” Said Brer Fox. “I said I was going to roast you ,on that fire.” he paused and pointed at the fire behind him. “Now is that something to be laughing about?”

                Well, perhaps that is not a direct example of a communication that is first oral and then written, but it is close, though perhaps a canned example.

                      Sometime in the late seventies a publishing house put out a song book that covered the first couple of Van Halen albums. Although I could read and write music pretty well (OK, to an extent), the pages for "Eruption" and "Spanish Fly" might as well have been written in Chinese. All I could see were a bunch of closely-cropped birds sitting on telephone wires. And I was fairly certain the other tunes were not transposed properly, because I highly doubted that every single song started on "E". Other than including a series of great photographs not found on the albums, it was a complete waste of (my then teenage) money.

                                No kidding, and to derail this thread even further, it broke my heart to learn that after all these years, National Speed and Sport is calling it a day.
