Windmills of Your Mind - Michel Legrand

[Gabz]

Hello everyone,
As a great lover of iReal Pro, and as a test of deciphering and scoring a REAL complicated piece of music,
here is my Oyster gift of one of my favorite song of Sting, "Windmills of Your Mind".
Enjoy and give a feedback.

Just saw your past now and grabbed the chart. Amazingly close, awesome job! My favorite arrangement too. I haven't quite gone through the whole song yet, but I'll make some edits and upload a new chart when I can. The first thing I noticed was the Rhodes starts on the Bb, so I would call the first chord an F-11 (and most of the other F-9s as well cuz most of them sound like C-7/F. Same with making the F#-9s into F#-11s.) The bass is also doing F - C - G / F - C - G - Ab, and the second chord sounds like an EMaj7 (over the second G bass note) and a C7(b9b13 or b9#5) or Bbø7 (over the Ab bass note.) Whew! That's exhausting and that's just the intro! =P

Way to go. I love this recording and have sat down a few times to transcribe it...then stood up 10 minutes later discouraged!
