Revised (PrTenor Soul's vetsion). Added meter, composer, title in English (from Google Translate), fixed a couple of chords, missing bar lines, & corrected the key (it was set to C maj). E Preciso Perdoar - (And I Need To Forgive) - Alcyvando Luz-Carlos Coquejo

Another song by The Police, from their terrific last album, Synchronicity. Worked on this one for a while, & discovered that I can use a 1st Ending without a double bar/double dot repeat sign, IF I use the D.S. al 2nd Ending text command - ! Saves lots of space, & solves the problem of pop songs...

Have been on a bit of a Police kick lately. This is from their last studio album, "Synchronicity". Pop-Rock Ballad @ 116 bpm Elec. Gtr. Chorus Soft Synth Fretless Bass Wrapped Around Your Finger (The Police) - Gordon Sumner (Sting)

Here's a somewhat mysterious-sounding song from The Police's 2nd album, 'Reggatta de Blanc". Bring On the Night (The Police) - Gordon Sumner (Sting)

How's this for the ending? Cheating a bit, but it works. Cause We've Ended As Lovers - Stevie Wonder

Another Colin Hay song. First released by Men At Work on their "Cargo" album (1983), but the link below is from Colin's "Man At Work" (2003) solo release, which features acoustic versions &/or re-recorded versions of his hits w/ Men At Work. This version is essentially the same as the original...

Oh wow, I missed seeing this - 😢. Of course, no mention in the national media, it seems only musicians knew about her, which is a shame. I found out about her from the Hal Wilner tribute album to Thelonious Monk, "That's the Way I Feel Now". Her arrangement & performance by her Very Big Band of...

Thx, I have a couple of charts that I've been struggling w/ (pop tunes, more than jazz) that I'll try this with. Pop tunes tend to do weird things like add an extra 2 bars to an A section after a D.S., etc. Thx!

CyrilleB - Thanks for posting your excellent version of "Pools". I noticed that you used two different Del Segno's, labeling each with a number (1 and 2). How do you get those to work in the Player - do the numbers have to be placed in a certain spot or in a certain way? Thx, MCJazzer

OK, if you wanted the iReal player to only play a Bb bass note for that chord, then I guess that makes sense. Thanks.

OK, I think I've got it - make the performer (who may not necessarily be the composer) part of the title of the chart (which makes that name(s) part of the html file link), reserving the composer name(s) for the Composer Info, & adding the composer info as text in the message after the link...

Thanks, yea, that Eb9sus/Bb works just as well, & is perhaps easier to find on the fly. I use this chord quite a bit, depending on how well it can be voiced on the guitar. For notating for the iReal player, I like using the 6/9 chord of the relative major (still thinking of it as a minor chord)...

Was just wondering - several times you notated a Bbm7 chord with a Bb bass note - is that what you wanted? Wouldn't that chord already have a Bb as the bass note?

I know this song is posted earlier in this thread, but I humbly present my version of "Let's Dance": https://forums.irealpro.com/threads/Let-s-Dance-David-Bowie.15068/

This isn't really in the Ska style, but it IS a (big hit) song by the Ska group Madness: https://forums.irealpro.com/threads/Our-House-Chas-Smash-Chris-Foreman.29316/

Hi - I can't find in the User Guide what the proper format is for a thread title (you had edited my thread title: "Corrected thread title format"). Just want to mke aure I'm doing things correctly. Thx.

LOL! Haven't met that guy lately...

Acttually (& not to pick on anybody) the 1st post of this thread says: "...if you are making chord charts for jazz musicians to interpret, the baseline assumption for ALL chords is that they are 7th chords, at least."

Sorry, I don't agree that any chord in a jazz song is assumed to be a 7th chord of some kind - what about maj6 chords? Those are the backbone of the Swing Era harmonic style (Benny Goodman, Glenn Miller, etc.). Then there are min6 chords, maj & min 6/9's, sus chords that don't have a 7th, etc...

Again, SORRY - found what I thought had been deleted, here's what is germane to this topic/thread: + when writing original music, I use iReal to keep track of the chord changes, form, & to try out diff. rhythm patterns & tempi. + I've used iReal to write up a background track for a song at...
