[@sumabatman]

This is still one of the most insane solos I’ve ever heard

[@anthonyhencher6190]

i have not enjoyed myself so much;;fab;fab;fab;;what more can one say;; out of this world!!

[@scottpazera9131]

This has been on my transcribe list since I first heard it. I will buy a copy when you release it. Are you doing his solo on "Mana" from the same release?

[@blindblackpianist]

Rob you gotta release version 2.0, there's so many corrections that I bet you'd spot quick if you gave it another hour :)

[@RobEgertonJazzTranscriptions]

It's not my transcription! I posted it as a favour to help David Sear promote his book.

[@fetze]

Isn't this basstrumpet ?

[@RobEgertonJazzTranscriptions]

Yes.

[@bobbycat8]

awesome :D

[@kalebsummers8483]

Sounds like a calves trombone

[@evangarner6412]

does he slur or tongue

[@RobEgertonJazzTranscriptions]

A mixture of single tongue and slurring, I believe.

[@kalebsummers8483]

Valve*^

[@RobEgertonJazzTranscriptions]

Bass Trumpet!

[@melvinnimtz4821]

Still a great solo though

[@blindblackpianist]

@@melvinnimtz4821 why do you say "still" though lol, for me it's great because his instrument choice If you tried to play this at tempo with a slide trombone, you wouldn't come close to matching the nuances and intricacies Elliot gets with the bass trumpet. Especially with the lines that go below the tuning Bb that sits atop the staff. So glad he plays it

[@kalebsummers8483]

@@blindblackpianist This would sound fire on a slide trombone. The trombonist in New Orleans play like this and so does does elliot on slide but yeah he does give a different vibe with the bass trumpet

[@blindblackpianist]

@@kalebsummers8483 it wouldn't be close to as fluid though, that clarity and butter sound would be hindered by having to tongue every note in the same partial
