Thank you for the imediate response. You play it wonderfully by the way. This song reminds my of my youth. Are options for learning songs back then were to either buy the sheet music, the LP or learn it from somebody. I wasn't good enough back then(and still not) to pick it up immediately by ear. I'll have to look up Steve Swallow, I only knew that he played with Burton. I love music history and find those that were involved with it interesting. Thank you kindly for shareing your music.
Aha! I recognise this pariticular notation and handwriting style on the sheet music, mine came from a from a book called Spaces 1 (mine was a illegal pirate) that was very popular amongst the jazz guys some years ago. Great book, it had over 200 songs of the jazz standards.
@CorvusDreams It's actually just a scan from the original Real Book. They say it might be the incredible Steve Swallow who was the author of it and he somewhat alludes to it (as does the fact that a disproportionate amount of his compositions was featured in it). One of the greatest things ever done for aspiring jazz musicians of the post-bop era.
This is one of my all time favorites and you do it so well. My favorite rendition of this song is when it is sung by Tony Bennett. Thanks for sharing this.
Exactly the way I want to learn this song. Beautiful, but I cant read the sheet music here...too small, can you email a copy of your arrangement to me/
Very nice! I enjoyed your chord melody, your choice of moving voices, the harmonies, and the fact that you didn't over play or under play. Very well done. Most importantly, a joy to listen to.
