Thought of Cheryl first. The weirdest blues. Great job man. I wish I just could read and have so much knowledge and freedom to create genuine versions of timeless music

I never noticed that, but yes, there's a connection with Cheryl!

This is great! I don't know why it would not be played in a Jazz gig, sounds fantastic.

I totally agree about the song, Raphael. It can work well in a jazz context.

@@rondrotoskeyboardimprov9453 I played it last night and the Charlie Parker piece for a couple of hours. Joyful pieces. I find this one harder to play as the chords don't change very fast and the 5th of Eb is Bb, so I keep feeling like I have stuffed up playing the next chord too early before the Bb comes in half way through the bar. Also the kind of delayed comping rhythm they use in the Parker recording doesn't fully work here because of where the chords fall. I can't exactly follow what you did at times, and when exactly you used the 3 6 2 5 1, so I am thinking of writing out a re-harmonization of it this weekend. I'll post a link with my ideas on how to improve it.

Hi Ron, I did contact Hal Leonard on the Chelsea error and they're changing it, I'll let them know on this too. :-) I did contact them before and requested Cabin in the Sky for Real Book 7!

Wow, James, you're amazing! It's great that they're correcting it, although I'm a little surprised they didn't look over the chords more closely the first time around. All the previous generations of jazz musicians knew about it.

You've made a valuable contribution to the jazz world with this one :)

Thanks! We both have haha! Do mention any errors you find in your videos! Fun tune to play BTW, reminds me of those old Hollywood Technicolor films shot in exotic locations with Brando, Mitchum, Hope or Jane Russell etc!

Yes, it has that kind of sound. Strayhorn even recorded a version with Latin rhythms, on one of his few albums as a leader.
