http://www.retrothing.com/2007/06/phil_collins_no.htmlOne more surprise up 8-track's sleeve is just how long it stuck around on the sly. Around 1984 8-tracks disappeared from most retailers' shelves, but determined fans could still pick up some limited new releases until about 1988 via mail-away record clubs. That's the story behind the Phil Collins 8-track of his massively successful solo effort, "No Jacket Required". That makes "No Jacket Required" one of the few albums that would have been concurrently released on LP, 8-track, cassette, CD, VHS, CED, and who knows what else since.
Not many people know that.

Some of the hate posts here are coming from pure arrogance and some are just plain stupid.
What you people are saying is that transcribed sheet music should be obsolete as no one should ever use it.
You are also saying that there must be only one method to learn playing the piano. It should be by ear alone. That's really arrogant and stupid.
Some have an excellent ear for music, others not, some are piano experts and can deduce all the chords and fills in 5 minutes, some are beginners who need a place to start from, some people don't like notation sheets others want to practice their notation reading etc. etc. etc...
So stop being arrogant and just shut up if you don't like this thread. You don't need to reply.
On the other hand, thank you to those who were helpful in this thread.

No one was hating on sheet music, yairhol, in fact one poster defended your use of sheet music.
They were hating on Phil Collins, and then the Kaiser and then John F Kennedy, then there was a discourse on the inequity of wealth and class and then back to Phil Collins again. But never was anyone hating on sheet music.

debs is correct, no problems here with sheet music. i do have a problem with shite music though, and phil collins has made his fair share of that...
plus as hes now banned i dont think its fair to start threads about him.

Phil collins is a genius in my perspective.
Sorry about the sheet music thingy. I was sure all those pictures and whatnot were intended (somehow) against that.
Now back to the sheet music, I have found this link:
http://www.forpiano.com/FILEX/phil_coll ... l_odds.pdf
but since now it is still pretty difficult for me to play I cannot fully understand what it should sound like.
If there are experts here who can play and record it (only the accompanying chords not the tune itself) then I will really appreciate it.
The problem is that I play it so slow now that I can't understand big parts of it and how it relates to the song.
Thank you.

It's been discussed in a lengthy thread recently. Can't bother to dig it up for you, but many (including me) do agree with you...yairhol wrote:Phil collins is a genius in my perspective.
This song is probably not the easiest to play. And if your sheet music reading capablilties are still lacking, then you need to work on that. Excersize, practice, do it often. You could cheat ofcourse (I know I would!) but really... all the info you need is in that pdf.yairhol wrote:Now back to the sheet music, I have found this link:

On page 1 someone pointed you to a midi file, not? Import that into any host, and put the piano part in solo mode. Select small regions of notes, and play those at slow pace. It's probably not the exact same thing as what's printed in that pdf, so I'd suggest to make up your mind: play what's written in the pfd or play what's in the midi file. Personally I'd use the midi file only for guidance of the broad lines, not as an exact guide.yairhol wrote:If there are experts here who can play and record it (only the accompanying chords not the tune itself) then I will really appreciate it.
You could also do the reverse: record the notes you play from the sheet music, in a DAW, and edit the timing so it's back to how it should be.
Practice, practice, practice... It's not easy, you need to work on it! And maybe this song is just too difficult for you right now.yairhol wrote:The problem is that I play it so slow now that I can't understand big parts of it and how it relates to the song.

Yes, that's a great idea.BertKoor wrote:You could also do the reverse: record the notes you play from the sheet music, in a DAW, and edit the timing so it's back to how it should be.
The other midi part that was posted here is not the same as the pdf file that I posted and I wanted to follow the file.
I think I'll do just what you suggested and vary the speed.
Thanks.

Back on topic, the original poster asked for an accurate score. Keep in mind that if you're trying to play this on piano, you don't want an accurate score. An accurate score would have individual staffs for each instrument in the arrangement. What you want is a piano interpretation of the song, covering as much of the instrumentation and vocal melody as possible with a single instrument. It might still be possible to purchase a used copy of the sheet music for that song somewhere, if you dig around a bit.
