Woody Shaw Vol9 Aebersold

Eight beautiful songs, written by Woody Shaw, which are a departure from the typical bebop jazz melodies and chord progressions. The songs are a challenge and should be a treat for intermediate to advanced players. The styles and tune formulae represented are bossa nova, waltz, minor blues, alternating bossa/swing and latin/swing, slow and fast. These songs are a welcome departure from typical bebop and swing tunes and are sure to inspire fresh ideas. Rhythm section: Ronnie Matthews, James Williams, piano; Stafford James, Jamey Aebersold, bass; Louis Hayes, Mike Hyman, drums
