Buddy DeFranco Rhythm Changes Solo Transcription

[@gerrycappuccio4186]

Buddy De Franco always played very interesting musical solos.I had the pleasure to play with him for 2 weeks in 1968 on the Glenn Miller Band & for another 2 weeks in 1973 on the same band. He was the best leader I have worked for in my career.Gerry Cappuccio He was a great gentleman & Musician.

Burning solo. A lot of melodic stuff for all musicians to steal from.

[@ADDLIBONNIPPON]

Absolutely brilliant. Have been following Buddy for 60yrs and always wondered how he did it. Great to see the notes just how he played it. Play on in heaven Buddy, we shall miss you.

This is fantastic bebop playing and mastering of the instrument...and to think that critics said he was too " mechanical "- them that cant do criticize.

[@bobbly7132]

Buddy was perhaps the greatest technical jazz clarinetist after Benny Goodman.

[@icietmaintenant3891]

+Bob Bly Buddy : not After but .... Before Benny Goodman !....

[@egyptianminor]

+Bob Bly Arguably the first clarinetist - and one of the few, to move beyond Swing and Goodman's influence and learn from Charlie Parker and absorb the Be Bop vocabulary. Eddie Daniels is another cat, but he's much younger - still alive.

[@pauloteixeira9427]

Wow baby

[@tomczykiewiczmusic8086]

Wow, I can't imagine how u transcribed all the notes! :) Did you do it by ear, or had some kind of program for this?

[@lagromusic]

I transcribed it over many weeks (during train journeys with my laptop). I used the program Transcribe! to slow it down. Did many things by ear and used the build in keyboard to verify the lines i heard ;)

[@mohitoness]

+lagro amazing!!! do you have sheet music for it all?

[@williampiburn973]

Where can I get this transcription? Amazing!
