Deep Purple - solo jazz piano. Another experiment - this time with 8 bars of the lead sheet displayed, with the scrolling notation , the clear piano view and the text comments on some of the techniques used. There is a much better version (along with a midi file, pdf transcription and leadsheet at

Nice playing.

I think you could change some of the notation - there's lots of enharmonic (sharps where there should be flats etc.) strangeness going on that might confuse the beginner...

Nice playing, reminded me of Peterson and Basie a bit, with a little bit of Bill Evans (my personal favourite) in there

Thanks for the comments. Yes, the enharmonic irregularities are there - the program I use decides to use either sharps or flats according to the chord that operates at that point. Chords that derive from a 'sharp' key (e.g Am7 / D7) it translates as ii and V in the key of G Major, no matter that it may resolve to Gm. I have to accept these irregularities, as the other features of the program make the job of transcription much easier than any other program I have used.

By the way, the software is either Band in a Box or Power Tracks pro audio. They have certain advantages - they will allow a floating split point between clefs, will read a tempo map that allows fractions of BPM, and are easy to edit.

Gotta say, your tutorials here have been tremendously helpful over these last two years or so. It's really hard to find advanced great playing to learn from in such a clear format. Bravi and thanks!

My Dads favourite and he and my Mum had this played for their wedding song- in 1938. A fovourite of mine as well.

You play beautifully- very nicely done

Thanks for posting

There is another way of playing it that makes it a fox trot or waltz. Just look up "Lighthouse point stinson band organ" and it will play deep puple.

nice playing, kinda like an easy stride feel from the left hand with bill evans harmonies from the right with hints of oscar peterson and erroll garner
