Pat Metheny’s solo on Equinox
I had a request for this one so here it is. This is Pat’s solo on Equinox from the 1997 Kenny Garrett recording Pursaunce: The Music Of John Coltrane. This solo transcription is incomplete. I should finish it up some time!
Blues For Los Angeles by Bill Frisell
Blues For Los Angeles can be heard on Bill Frisell – Gone, Just Like A Train (Nonesuch 1998). This is more of a simplified lead sheet than a strict transcription. I love this tune! Bill really says so much with so little (unlike this guy). It’s a 24-bar blues in E. I added a bass-clef stave in lieu of chord symbols. But just in case you wondered, it’s a 3 chord blues: I, IV, I, V, I. Enjoy!
Broadway Blues by Ornette Coleman
I first heard this Ornette Coleman tune on Pat Metheny – Bright Size Life (ECM (G) 1073). On that recording, Pat pairs it with Round Trip, also by Coleman. It was originally released on Ornette Coleman – Love Call (Blue Note BST 84356, CDP 7 84356-2) and Ornette Coleman – New York Is Now!, Vol. 1 (Blue Note BST 84287, CDP 7 84287-2).
NM updates his site…finally!!!
Wow, it’s been a while. I just scoured my desktop mac for all pertinent files including many transcriptions, photos, and tracks from over the years. Not sure how to share whilst still protecting my intellectual property. I guess for now I’ll make my stuff available here and see how it goes. Enjoy!!
