Roy Hargrove songs

As a trumpet player one of my major influences has been Roy Hargrove, but outside of standards you rarely see the chords or arrangements of his songs. I feel we should amend this, that being said, here are two of my favorite charts by Roy Hargrove.

Lada by Roy Hargrove

Strasbourg-St Denis by Roy Hargrove

More to come soon! Please post some of your own if you have any! :)

Hi everyone, I'm also a Roy's fan like Bullet. Recently I discover his "Starmaker", it's an amazing tune.
It's a very cool even8ths!
The structure is quite simple and quite "hipnotic" but i'm not so able to write down...
Anyone could help me????
Thanks in advance!
 
Hi Chettino,

Thanks for posting! I had completely forgotten about posting charts until I received the email telling me your request(so much for my "more to come soon" statement).
Anyways... Here are the transcribed chords to Lou Marini's "Starmaker" as played by the Roy Hargrove Quintet as well as another one of Roy's Compositions I found in my list of transcrptions.

Starmaker - Lou Marini


Roy Allan - Roy Hargrove


Let me know what you think and if you are looking for anything else.
