Saturday Transcription

OK, busy week, so just one chorus of a really good solo, Charlie Rouse on Green Chimneys.  Tons of motivic development and improv based around the melody.  I guess after playing with Monk for like a million years you'd have to develop some of that.  I'll get back to ya with the other choruses.



Oh yeah, it's from the 1968 Thelonious Monk album Underground featuring Ben Riley and Larry Gales.  Great album.  Get it.
