Hey homie, I know this is a year old now but if it makes you feel any better, Paul Desmond probably wouldn't have hit all of those changes on this song anyway. Some of those chords are more of a comping flare and you don't need to automatically contextualize them. The important beats to hit are the CbMAj, BbMin, Abmin, and Gmaj, which should hopefully make it a little more manageable

Me over here using this backing track for a Tenor solo. It works great! thank you man!

My kazoo is tuned. Im ready.

Won't you stop and take A little time out with me Just take five Stop your busy day And take the time out To see if I'm alive Though I'm going out of my way Just so I can pass by each day Not a single word do we say It's a pantomime and not a play Still, I know our eyes often meet I feel tingles down to my feet When you smile, that's much too discreet Sends me on my way Wouldn't it be better Not to be so polite You could offer a light Start a little conversation now It's alright, just take five Just take five

Merci ! Tout est relevé ici, y compris les basses et accords : kzread.info/dash/bejne/qaGpxqdxgrDWhLw.html Tu dois faire référence au voicing BMaj7 simple que j'utilise (B A# D#) et en particulier le La#. Dans l'original au piano il fait B A# C# D# (compliqué à la guitare) donc la Maj7 s'entend plus dans mon BT.

Cool.

Here's what got me through it: www.jazzguitar.be/blog/how-to-play-take-5-chords-on-guitar/ The trick is to play what the piano is playing - i.e. arpeggios and chords, not just chords. Makes it much easier to keep time.

Try listening to take five a bunch, by various artists, even various styles. It’ll help get some musical ideas floating about in your brain as well as normalizing the time signature

technically it's not a B maj7 but a Cb maj7 , since we play in the Eb minor scale, Cb is the VI and B the V , not the same thing

Does anybody have any reccomendation on how to improv after the first run down of the whole chorus lick? I'm getting back into music after 4 years out of high school, and I'm not particularly comfortable with playing jazz improv. Sheet music, I could do. but having to think on the spot, will throw me off beat and I'll have a hard time jumping back in, I am experimenting with 5/4 right now, as I am already used to the usual 4/4, 3/4 2/4, etc.

hi, you can try Eb- pentatonic all the time. you can play F#maj/Eb- scale. you can alternate scale Dbmaj (Eb- dorian) in the A section, and F#maj in the B section. you can use chord arpegios, arpegio substitution and other things. i suggest to listen george benson version. bad english...sorry

Eb blues (Minor pentatonic with the added b5) works well over the Ebm Bb-7 vamp. Over the B section, I would recommend using the full Eb minor (aeolian) scale because the pentatonic is missing important notes. For the last two bars of the B section (Fm7(b5) and Bb7) Eb harmonic minor is implied here.
