Miles Davis on Freddie Freeloader. This coming Tuesday he will be
looking at another solo by a classic jazz artist.
"We'll look at a Lester Young solo......the tune is "Almost Like Being
In Love" (New Real Book 3 and some others I guess) and it's from an
album called "Lester Young in Washington, Volume 4" from 1956. Not on
Spotify (I think) but on itunes, and if people preview the track they
can hear the first chorus of Lester's solo (which is the one I've got
the transcription for).
Best,
Geoff
Dots are attached. let me know if you have any problems with the
attachments. I have unzipped them.
Members like the idea of learning and analysing solos as a way of
learning jazz language. Feel free to give me more feedback about
approaches you would like in the workshops.
See you on Tuesday.
