[edit] Toshiba TMPZ84C015
Not sure why you re-uploaded Image:TMPZ84C015AF.png — the original one was removed from the article, but hasn't been deleted yet. BTW, it's probable best to upload any GFDL or Creative Commons images from other versions of Wikipedia to Wikimedia Commons when you use them. Cheers, --StuartBrady (Talk) 18:56, 12 July 2006 (UTC)
- Well, I'm not sure I understand completely what is happening here, but the first time I uploaded this image (a week ago) I forgot to select a license, so I immediately uploaded it again, but this time under the name TMPZ84C015.png (without "AF") because I didn't know how to erase the previous one (or change attributes, if possible?) and that is the version currently displayed on the Z80-page. I probably should learn a little about Wikimedia Commons, and other stuff as well — I'm still a novice here at WP... -- HenkeB 21:50, 12 July 2006 (UTC)

- Take a look at Image:TMPZ84C015AF.png, and choose 'edit this page'. You should see the licensing information is specified with templates. {{no license}} was added by OrphanBot when it removed the image from the Z80 article. You'd have had to change {{don't know}} to the correct template — in this case, it's {{GFDL}}. Wikipedia:Image copyright tags has a list of them. --StuartBrady (Talk) 22:24, 12 July 2006 (UTC)

- Ok, I've tried that (on both files), I suppose the one with {{no license}} will be deleted soon(?).
- I will probably use Wikimedia Commons next time — thanks for your guidance! -- HenkeB 23:39, 12 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Bass
The early bass players used the slap to add volume in between the bass notes and it seems clearly imitative of a snare drum "backbeat." By saying "percussive" this implies that it's a deep, drum-like sound and there is an element of this due to the fact that the wood of the bass body will vibrate sympathetically with the slap. However, the slapping of the thick metal-wound strings against the hardwood of the fingerboard, in all the traditional jazz and rockabilly bands I've heard who use this technique, it produces a strong trebly metallic "click," as opposed to a deep "thump" Badagnani 00:16, 23 October 2006 (UTC)
With gut strings, are the lowest strings wound or just pure gut? How would you describe the sound produced by the slapping of gut strings? I've seen the clip of Cab Calloway's "Reefer Man" and it sounds similar to the more modern examples I've heard. Badagnani 00:28, 23 October 2006 (UTC)
Interesting to hear about this music in Sverige. I think you're describing the difference between the technique as done with gut and metal-wrapped strings. I'd agree with you on the sound produced by the gut strings. I think we could split the difference in the description, while acknowledging that with either kind of string there's a sharpness (maybe somewhat like a "crack" of a snare drum rather than a "click") to the attack which is contrasting to the mellow, round depth of the bass string's plucking -- though the metal strings create a sharper attack. So it creates a substitute for a snare drum when a band doesn't have a drummer. I think another reason it imitates the snare drum is that if one slaps more than one (or all four) of the strings against the fingerboard, they don't all strike at exactly the same instant, creating a complexity of sound that is similar to the sound of the snare drum, with its many wires jangling against the bottom drumhead. By the way, I listen to a lot of Swedish folk artists, one of my favorite being Garmarna who do old Swedish songs with modern instrumentation. Badagnani 02:46, 23 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Svensk jazz
I'll look for that music! I heard of something similar, but it may have been Norwegian songs that were learned and arranged by Art Farmer, I think, maybe in the 1960s or 1970s. Badagnani 04:40, 23 October 2006 (UTC)
Oh, it's here: http://www.amazon.ca/Sweden-Love-Art-Farmer/dp/B00000IWNQ Do you know this one? Badagnani 04:42, 23 October 2006 (UTC)
You can try this one (it's working for me now). One phrase in "De Salde" reminds me of a phrase from Grieg's "Peer Gynt." http://www.cduniverse.com/search/xx/music/pid/6764228/a/To+Sweden+With+Love%2FLive+At+The+Half+Note.htm Badagnani 05:49, 23 October 2006 (UTC)
