Description:
One glaring omission in most fake books and lead sheets are the recorded intros and endings that are part of the famous recordings of well-known tunes.
The Real Intros and Endings Book is a long-overdue collection of over 100 accurate transcriptions of the intros and endings for classic jazz songs and standards.
These are parts that every jazz player has heard, but that are not played simply because they have never been available in print before.
You'll find the recorded intros to Clifford Brown's "Joy Spring," Miles' "Bye Bye Blackbird" and Cannonball's "Autumn Leaves," among many others (see the Table of Contents below). By incorporating them into your performances, your band will automatically sound more professional and unique - a big plus!
The Real Intros and Endings Book is largely transcribed from the recordings of mainstream artists like Miles Davis, Cannonball Adderley, John Coltrane, Bud Powell, Wes Montgomery and Dexter Gordon, but also includes more modern artists like Mike Stern, Alan Holdsworth and Dayna Stevens.
Most transcriptions are of the rhythm section on the recording, but some include horn parts as well in order to help recreate the original sound.
There's a section devoted exclusively to Charlie Parker, whose compositions include some wonderful composed intros and endings that are essential parts of his songs and too frequently omitted from lead sheets.
A "More Inspiration" section of intros and endings is included simply because they are (1) musically lovely and (2) attached to frequently-played songs and therefore useful.
Includes cool, original portraits of famous jazz musicians by artist Lissa Herschleb.
