[Harp-L] Tenor madness

[JON KIP <jon@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I found and "borrowed" the audio from that video some time ago, and have recently been using it to good effect in my attempts to hear the upper areas of chords that toots started to live  in at the time... and where he lived even more so in his later work.

Transcribing that solo (using Transcribe! app) will open lots of ear-doors for the interested listener-student.

A good mix of predictable, totally accessible,  lines with "toots" lines....a good bridge between "bebop" and Toots' neo-bop. In short, a lesson. Thanks, toots.

I find no issues with the band....
