One of my all time faves
I called this at a jam session few wednesdays ago
Love the smooth brass
Your tromboning is sweet
Man, that arrangement is giving me goosebumps !
God, those are some rich harmonies, man
really love the modern hip hop beat - really freshens it up
You are freakin' arranging genius, mike !!
Beautiful solo - Flugelhorn ?
Wish i woulda paid attention in arranging class, rather than just wanting to blow leads

It is a very hip tune.
The solo is valve bone.
I tweaked the chords for the melody a bit (instead of sus7, I build some fat sus13ths), and the solo part (after the melody and hits) a bit more.
At the beginning open sections, in the minor sections, that sandwich the two dominant sections that are half step apart, you can play around between min11 and min69's and I like a walk down with Cm11, CmMaj7, Cm9, Cm69.
In the G13+ section (the third section) I used a Dm7/G, and a nice FmMaj7/G.
The melody coming in out of the open blowing is awesome--that's Freddy Hubbard's genius.
The solo section:
Cm69---Bflt min9, Bflt min69/Eflt(bass)---Aflt Maj9, Dflt13/Aflt(bass)---Dm7flt5, G13+
I can show you the brass voicings.
You can crunch the seventh of a dom 13th down low just above the fifth and pedal roots and then crunch some lower chord notes together in the middle (like the ninth--or 2nd--up against the third--and then spread out the rest of the notes by fourths on top, and it gets a thick meaty texture.
Trombones have space at the bottom between root and fifth, crunch in the middle, and spread at the top.
Trumpets (in this arrangement Eflt alto horns) get crunched close together up high.
Its ok that you were asleep in arranging class, I didn't learn any of this in school, and your leads kick @ss anyway.
I made up the chart as I went along, and its sort of scribbles on scraps of music paper.
If I were to write it out for people to play I would have to go back and transcribe it LOL.
If the chart works, a lot has to do with it being basically very simple structurally.
Thanks a lot for your words of encouragement, it means a lot, and helps.

I tell ya, this may make some people around here cringe, but If I had a serious deal, and LAWDOG offered his services, I'd at least entertain the thought
