That's a weird thing in Star Wars canon though. Yes, as stated in Episode I, "Always two. No more, no less. A master and an apprentice." But even Sidious called Darth Maul a Sith Lord in that very movie. And in all early scripts and adaptations, Lucas has always called him Darth Vader, Dark Lord of the Sith. It's one of the few instances where Lucas has seemed to contradict himself in the canon Star Wars realm. ---------- Hawkeye Kane
Cristal, do you work any of the Star Wars music into harp licks? Give it a try. I tried picking up some classic rock riffs to use as cliches, and I found some work quite well as legitimate licks, hardly recognizable at different tempos and different moods. It's a way to incorporate something of your own....uh...or steal something in a creative way. I also lifted some 1940's big band stuff from Harry James, Glenn Miller and such. I even lifted a trumpet solo from Tuxedo Junction almost completely intact but harmonicized somewhat. Those old brass guys used to use plungers to get that wah sound, and Tuxedo Junction was a big plunger song.
Well, I'm talking about just, say, two bars in the middle of a solo. I just worked with the...uh...I think it's the Imperial Death March, start on two draw times three, bend, then three draw and back to two draw, then repeat bend, three, two. Just enough to give them a taste and turn their heads. It comports with my cliche theory, as does Louie, Louie and the guitar riff from Johnny B. Good.
