TOTM - Summertime Resource

For the TOTM Tony mentioned that there was a bunch of Summertime stuff already on the site, so I figured it might be good to get it all together in one post. If anyone finds anything else, feel free to add it.

Summertime with stride:

Summertime vibes performances:

Wave (with link to transcription) - Mark Carlsen (bass) & Ed Saindon (vibes)

I saw that Tony and Behn selected Summertime and Wave for TOTM. Both great songs. Here's a clip that I made in my studio with good friend and bassist Mark Carlsen. I love anything written by Carlos Jobim. There are so many great compositions that he has written. I'm using some different scales (including symmetrical diminished) on some of the changes here as well as some techniques using upper structure triads and triad pairs.

TOTM - Wave - Guitar Accompaniment by Babu

Hi guys
I thought that it could be useful for some of you to have a Wave guitar accompaniment tape to work on.
The changes I'm using are :
For the A sections
/D7M/Bb°/Am7/D79b/G7M/Gm6/F#76F#75+/F#m7B9(or9b)/Bm7E79/Bb9A7/Dm7G76/Dm7G76/
And for the B section (bridge):
/Gm7BassBb/C79BassBb/F7MBassA/F6BassA/Fm7BassAb/Bb79BassAb/Eb7MBassG/Em711BassA/
Good work !
