I think it is a great thing we have started. One of the members here has a number of Bb lead sheets that he has promised to post soon.

I am working on a few transpositions that I will post as soon as done.

can we upload image files that will get displayed in the thread ?
or do we need to host the images externally ?

I have a sizable collection of Bb charts, which I will post after my return from France next week.

image test post:

Here's something I made to show how much of Charlie Parker's Omnibook is based on other tunes.

For GJ saxophonists & clarinettists, note that there are many Parker solos based on 'Honeysuckle rose', 'I got rhythm', 12 bar blues, etc.
So plenty of licks & riffs for borrowing ;-)



normally I'd recommend getting the B-flat version of the Omnibook, but the GJ keys are often different from those played by the be-bop guys. So transpose

Next up - some GJ lead sheets in Bb

Note that lots of guitar players to Si Tu SAvais in Bm which Andy's C# minor transcription is perfectamundo although original music that I have shows it in Cm and I will post that and my Dm transcription as soon as I can figure out how best to post it :oops:

I practice it in all 3 keys (I really need the practice)

Swing Gitan for Bb instruments .
p.s. ignore that tempo marking!



I just got my piano talking to Garageband - makes keying-in music a lot easier.

so - any requests for GJ heads in Bb ??

Something I'm working on,here's the A section of "Made in France"



more "soon" lol

p.s. on sax you may want to use LH side D for the 4th line D's,
p.p.s on clarinet keep your choice of C# key down , either LH or RH, for all of bar 16

AndyW

here's "si tu savais" in D minor (for guitars in C min)


scribble in your own middle eight,
it's || Bb7 | Bb7 | Dm | Dm | Bb7 | Bb7 | A7 | A7 || , then back to bar 9 :roll:
