Good Bait is a choon innit?
Why is it though, whenever you look at rhythm changes it's alwasys on the sidle up - and not quite the fuill rhythm changes? Liked Simon's approach though boiling the form down to an AABA made up of another
AABA.
can you email the co-opistas to let them know that I have a gig on Sunday evening...?

Simon will be doing Good Bait and Oleo tonight. He will bring the charts. The changes are Rhythm Changes for both of course. Anthropology is another tune that uses these changes.
And from me:
It is very common for jazz standards to be written using an established chord sequence. The most common is the Blues of course and the second is Rhythm Changes. You could argue that it is only the melody that is new but in the case of Good Bate the B section harmony was also re written.
