This is my transcription of Sonny Stitt's recording of the great standard. He plays some beautiful lines on melody and solo I get slightly ahead at times and thats a learning curve in itself, Ive learned so much from this project. Thanks in advance for listening.
Hi all,
During the pandemic, I had a nice opportunity to do a considerable amount of recording with the Posi-Tone "bubble band" with Art Hirahara on piano, Boris Kozlov on bass, and Rudy Royston on drums . I'm very proud of what we accomplished during these uncertain times. My new album comes out March 19th and is available on my website now, behngillece.com
What key is it in?
Is it a minor ii V or major?
So if you if you know what key this is in, then you can figure out the ii V chords as well right? (Of course you can).
Play it in 12 keys.
Play a solo over the tune I'll Remember April. Fit this lick into the tune. Do you see where? Everywhere there is a minor ii V. i.e. Amin7b5 D7.
Honor system. When you've done all this work and done it well, sign off on the assignment here. Just make a comment and say Done or Completed or whatever you want.
I am selling my 'Musser M48 Traveler' vibraphone with bars from the late 70's. If you are interested please email me at christosraf@mac.com.
