I don’t always post when there’s a new transcription now that we have over 150, but there have been a few recent entries I want to highlight.
First a neat (and fast!) Bruce Johnstone solo from a Maynard Ferguson album on the song “Superbone Meets the Badman”. Thanks to Mattew Stevenson for this one.
There’s also a new Ronnie Cuber transcription on his tune, Passion Fruit. Giovanni Contri provided this one.
And lastly, and maybe most interestingly we have our first Bob Gordon solos care of Zachary Spondike! Bob Gordon is a very under-represented baritonist with an unfortunately short career but could play the hell out of the baritone. He died awfully young in a car accident, but the recordings we have are excellent. These two transcriptions – one on “Have You Met Miss Jones” and one on “Dot’s Groovy” both come from an album with Jack Montrose. You can read what Jack wrote about Bob Gordon on his page here.
Head to the Transcriptions Repository to grab these new solos, and enjoy them.
