![]() I think it was Adderley's first album as a leader. ![]() ![]() my looper pedal and I have been the virtual band playing all the parts on mandolin, guitar, and double bass. Thanks again for this posting I've been playing the song almost daily since I first saw it. Not to mention the bass player gets to open and close the song! Isn't that when he bought his first gullwing Mercedes while everyone else carpooled to the gigs? With Cannonball calling the shots and Miles being an excellent team player in that recording, it really stands out. I think it was a favor for Cannonball doing the Kind of Blue sessions and only receiving something like $225 union wage while Miles made millions off the recording. It will make a difference for the learner, the player, and every one else involved. Put the chord changes in big bold letters above the tab clef like happens with the Real books and Fake books and almost every other song charts printed. I generally see this tune as one to be played with others and your charts usually get carried around in an attempt to communicate with other players. The tab chart expresses a common frustration with many mandolin tabs I see: it is written like the mandolin is the one and only center of the universe. This is a jazz standard that gets played on almost every instrument you can imagine. In no way do I want to be critical of your effort, but I would like to point out this one thing. If you know this tune, add a simple I-IV-V intro section in E minor and you also have all the changes for the Rosenburg Trio's smokin' hot Gypsy swing tune "For Sephora". Ted E's jazz mando site had a fantastic harmonic analysis of this tune several years ago complete with all the mandolin tab nerdiness you could ask for. Nice! I've played that tune on 100s of gigs on several different instruments an iconic jazz standard- take the time to learn it and you get to play it 100s and 100s of times for life in all kinds of situations.
