By Wes Montgomery. By John L. (Wes) Montgomery and Sascha Burland. Arranged by Arranged by Alan Fagan & Dr. LeRoy Henry. 20th Century,Blues,Jazz,Standards. 7 pages. Dr. LeRoy Henry #817258. Published by Dr. LeRoy Henry (A0.1220916).

     Fortunately for us, guitarist Wes Montgomery went over to Europe in the spring of 1965 and toured. We're lucky, because Montgomery wound up on European TV shows during many of his stops, resulting in lots of video clips. 
     Wes was filmed May 7 in England with pianist Stan Tracey, bassist Rick Laird, and drummer Jackie Dougan. This session is quite different from the April 4 session in Belgium with pianist Harold Mabern, bassist Arthur Harper and drummer Jimmy Lovelaceand the April 2, 1965 session in Holland with pianist Pim Jacobs, bassist Ruud Jacobs and drummer Han Bennink in that it includes commentary from club owner Ronnie Scott, who explains the career and music of Wes Montgomery as if he were giving a lecture. The music, of course, features more of Montgomery's great stuff with personable glimpses at each of the artists. The quartet swings and seems to enjoy every minute of the show. The guitarist's West Coast Blues, in particular, makes this video stand out as an unforgettable piece of jazz history.
     An interesting thing about this video, the horn section did not know that the chord changes for solos were different than the changes for the theme. One can imagine that Wes was not traveling with a Real Book so the group did not learn this from paper. This arrangement corrects that issue and includes a head chart for the rhythm section and a version for guitar with tablature. It also includes trumpet, alto saxophone, tenor saxophone, and baritone saxophone.

By Elle King. By Dave Bassett and Tanner Schneider. Arranged by Brad Esbensen. Blues,Contemporary,Jazz,Rock. 61 pages. Brad Esbensen Music Services #6645243. Published by Brad Esbensen Music Services (A0.774488).

Arranged for jazz combo as a vocal feature, this arrangement loosely follows a similar form to a version recorded by Postmodern Jukebox. The chart is written in C minor and features an ensemble shout section and solo space for the drums, bass, and a short scat vocal break. This is a fairly straight ahead chart with mostly moderate brass ranges, and rhythm section parts notated throughout to assist less experienced players. I hope you enjoy performing this chart and if you would like it transposed into another key, please e-mail me at brad@bemus.com.au. www.bemus.com.au

Altzheimer's is a piece in support of the afflictions and societal problem of this illness.  It is a disease that affects all peoples without bounds in all walks of my life. It is a piece of hope that represents a turning of the tides the affliction as well as the dense fog that it produces within. I played it live with drummer for prelude for piano solo or ensemble. This is an original tune with a great funky vibe. The piece has a distinct and unique introduction, and development. You got to give it up for the key of this piece of Ab minor, you have been warned.  LOL.  2 page arrangement is challenging but not overly so, and well worth the effort to learn. Fun tune to learn and improve over. I used it in church for a prelude and it was well received with a jamming drummer. Fun Stuff.
