I have been spoiled by MIDI. Back when you could download a MIDI rendition of about any popular piece of music, I liked to isolate tracks and try to figure out how a cool piece of music came together. I sometimes wish I could do that with live perfomances I see on TV, especially when there’s a great electronic-sounding bass line and the camera’s on a singer. I still want to know what the bass line looks like. And sometimes I wish I knew what the piano sounded like because I’m not hearing any piano.
Just out of curiosity, which kid in the Partridge Family could somehow sound like a string section?
