    Song for Bilbao - Pat Metheny

    Don't have time to iRB it, but thought I'd drop you a quick line since you need the changes quick. The version (to my mind a lot hipper than what you find in RB2) on Tales from the Hudson goes like this: A: 4/4 ||: C7sus | % | % | % | | CPhryg | % | C7sus | % :|| B: 6/8 || F Bb | Eb F | Db Eb...

    Jazz Practice Exercises

    Minor and Tyner Minor Blues by Impromptu Bit more idiomatic for hard-bop era things like Mr PC. And this: Trane/Tyner Blues by Impromptu For that slabby, '60s modal vibe. Trane and Tyner used this template very freely - try treating each dominant as a sus chord, or focusing on pentatonic...

    I Wish I Knew How It Would Feel To Be Free - Billy Taylor

    Not that much different, really But here you go... I Wish I Knew by Billy Taylor In the original recording, Taylor plays funky gospel style in F, then modulates up to Ab as the feel shifts to a more straightahead swing.

What's to say about four power chords over...

    Feature requests

    Anticipation ties Very impressed with the app and I've found it most useful. It's a request-killer! Been poking round the forums for a bit, and thought I'd contribute some charts, fill in the blanks. Much as I suppose many people do - if I need a chart enough to enter it into iRB, I'll share...

    Jazz Practice Exercises

    Coltrane II-V-Is Anyone wanting to practise Coltrane subs on II-V-Is should load up Countdown. The tune is Trane's reharm of Tune Up (which I prefer to credit to Eddie Vinson, rather than Miles). The original key is Bb, and the tune uses II-V-Is in D, C and Bb. Transpose to Db, E and G, and...

    Film Music

    Bond themes In memoriam John Barry Prendergast. I'll add more as I have time to figure them out. Goldfinger, From Russia and Nobody Does are hereabouts already. Dr No is just an Em CESH vamp (up and down from the 5th in semitones) with B7s at the back end of the bridge, so doesn't really need...
