Introduction

This booklet contains full discographical information for the Companion Recordingswhich go with the What To Listen For in Jazz  part of my book The New Guide to Harmony

with LEGO Bricks.  It runs to 13 CD's or MiniDiscs, and the main part of the text consistsof track by track details.

It also includes a summary of the system, all the joins and all the bricks, courtesy of

tireless LEGO bricklayer Phil Clark. You can reach Phil on [email protected]

For musicians I have made an attempt at a Transcription Bibliography, in transcriber

order for the solos in the examples. This will always be out of date and incomplete, but Iwill update it with my own and readers' discoveries. Where there is a knowntranscription available, the track's details are followed by a reference to this bibliography.

There are also a Songs Listing, in alphabetical order, cross-referenced to the tracks on

the individual CD's where they occur, and an Album Listing, in artist order, of all thesources for the given examples.

That should help anyone who doesn't already own the material used to identify and obtainthe music they want. The opportunity to sample before you buy means you can buy more

than you might have done anyway, and with complete confidence that you are going tolike what you get.

The 2 listings, Songs and Albums are, of course, given in The New Guide to Harmony with

 LEGO Bricks itself. But there are enough differences here from the recommendedexamples in the book to make it advisable to include listings here that accurately reflect

the CD's.

You will need the book at hand because the text associated with each track is not repeatedhere. There are places here where extra text and/or different examples are used, and

those are fully explained as they occur. The typography of The New Guide to Harmony

with LEGO Bricks has been retained (and in a few places corrected) to help you keep your

 place.

As always I will respond to any reader who emails me about any relevant matter.

If you want a source of sound advice about what to buy, as well as access to a huge list ofkeenly priced new and second hand records, it is a pleasure for me to recommend Alan

Ross, of Jazz House Records. Visit the website:www.jazzhouserecords.co.uk

recommend).

Partly because of the beauty of this version, but also because of the almost inaudible nature of the

original recommendation, I have reluctantly dropped the Getz/La Faro version.

Please bear this song in mind when reading the 'two-cadence bridge' section titled

bauble+bauble.

Bridge starts

Bootstraps at Bridge Starts.The next 10 tracks all feature AABA songs where all  of the bridges start with a bootstrap. In

addition, some of these songs have two-cadence bridges  (see next section). This means simply

that halfway through the bridge there is a  jo in  to another cadence, so that the whole bridge

can be expressed as just two joins - e.g.  BootStrap+NewHorizon . Rather than repeat the

tracks immediately in the next section, they are delineated accordingly here, in the brackets

after the album references. Please refer forward to the book's text on Two Cadence Bridges 

when listening.

For Musicians especially: just a thought for you. The next three songs (covering four tracks)

all have identical  bridges. And, by simply being able to play cadences in any key and by

knowing what the joins are you can play all these bridges in any key too, without a second

thought . The complete set of possible joins is covered later in  All the Joins There Are, and the

actual intervals which make the joins are given in the  Al l the Joins part of this

documentation, and in Part IX of the book, The Harmony With LEGO Bricks Playalong .

As Carter's Crazy  Rhythm . Saxophone solos in order, Rouse, Woods, Hawkins, Carter.

Known transcriptions available: Carter and Woods solos (Miedema).  

Track 11. On the Sunny Side of the Street .  Lester Young (2). NB There is an error in the book,

where the attribution is given as Lester Young (1). (Almost Bootstrap+Woody. The join in the

middle is there OK, but there is a variation at the point of the second resolution).

Lester Young, tenor; Oscar Peterson, piano; Barney Kessel, guitar; Ray Brown, bass; J.C. Heard,

drums. NYC, August 4, 1952.

Sonny Stitt, tenor; J.J. Johnson, trombone; John Lewis, piano; Nelson Boyd, bass; Max Roach,

drums. NYC October 17, 1949.

Incidentally, if you get the CD reissue of this (Sonny Stitt/Bud Powell/J.J. Johnson on OJCCD-

009-2) you will find the take used here - the one we've always known - described as 'take 1', a

'bonus track'. Don’t be fooled. The 'take 2' is much less assured, and considerably worse inrecording quality.

Two Cadence Bridges

We just saw several tracks with bootstrap  bridge starts, so we don't repeat them here. (One of

the advantages of having gone digital is that going back to previous tracks is much easier to do

than it ever was with cassette).

As a reminder of the non-bootstrap starts in two-cadence bridges, here, starting with Woody+New

Horizon, are some examples to illustrate the points the book makes.

Woody+New Horizon.

All the Joins there areAll examples here illustrate the joins by having two successive cadences. The join is heard in thecontrast between the resolved sound of the first, and the 'further away' sound as the second

cadence kicks in. As well as having a name, the join is defined in words as e.g. 'starts a minor

third up'. That phrase, for instance, means that the next cadence starts a minor third up from the

resolution of the first. So in that case, a cadence ending on C would start the next one on Eb-. If

you want to see what they look like written out as changes, consult Part IX of the book, The

 Harmony with LEGO Bricks  Playalong . Note that the book locates each join in the tune for you.

that the last measure of the first cadence drops back , to launch the retake.)

Harewood, drums. Van Gelder, Englewood Cliffs, New Jersey, May 6th , 1961.

Known transcriptions available: Davis in both Isacoff (1) and Washburn & Harbison. NB if you

check out Open Key, under  Reading & Writ ing Sheet Music, in Part VIII, More Things to Think

 About , it is possible you may not have found yourself convinced. Try the comparison of the two

transcriptions of the same solo here, and then see what you think! For a start, they don't always

agree on actual notes. Then, Isacoff presents it in 4 sharps, because the basic key (for the

trumpet) is E. But while the first cadence is to E, the second is to D, and the third is to C!

Isacoff doesn't change his key signature at all, which leads to some pretty odd and unnecessary

accidentals. Then again, while Isacoff starts out at four measures to the line, he only sticks to it

for the first chorus. The second chorus starts with five measures to the line, and so the

transcription ceases to look like the structure of the music. Washburn & Harbison are exemplary.

used the one from  Lee Koni tz Inside Hi-Fi. It's a little less abstract sounding than the (admittedlywonderful)  Motion   version, and so may actually be a better illustration. A bonus is that you get

to hear 'tenor Lee'.

for both supertension endings and surprise sad endings. Interesting to hear this song done as areal ballad for a change.

On a personal note, and to underline how LEGO can often save you, I was playing alto on this

Bells & Whistles 2: oblique routes to resolutions

 Yardbird Cadences

The book doesn't make it clear enough that the 'dominant' used to arrive at the resolution is one of

the Bartok substitutions discussed under Substitution in Part IV , The Transi tion from Listening to

 Play ing . People often say 'substitution' when they really mean specifically 'tritone substitution',

implying that Db is the only sub for G. Remember Bartok showed that a sub could be anything 

from the diminished arpeggio of the 'real' note. Yardbird cadences use the bIII, so Bb for G. The

'straight' form of the cadence breaks down  the dominant seventh into a minor to dominant pair,

F- to Bb7.

Track 7.  Speak Low.   Booker Ervin (4).

Ervin, tenor, Horace Parlan (known as 'Felix Krull' - after the Thomas Mann confidence trickster

- on the original release), piano, George Tucker, bass, Al Harewood, drums. Nola Penthouse

Monk, piano, John Coltrane, tenor, Wilbur Ware, bass. Riverside Studios, NYC, April 16th , 1957.

Known transcriptions available: Trane (White).

Coltrane Cadences

There isn't a 'listen now' in the book for this next song, which I can only explain as an

unaccountable oversight on my part. After all, I quote the words as the bridge negotiates its

Giant Steps, so the song ought to be illustrated. Here is what the book should have said:

The bridge starts resolved (‘and all at once’), then proceeds through three compact cadences,

 per fectly conventional in themselves, but which move downwards  to arrive on resolutions a

‘giant step’ apart. In these, the last three beats of each measure containing the approach chords

has the words 'and all at', and every resolution is reached with the word 'once'. This repetition in

the lyric helps to point up the giant steps feel as you stride downwards. The final  giant step  goes

 back upwards, and the approach chords lyric here is 'earth and', with the resolution 'sky'. (What

is really interesting is that Giant Steps itself does exactly this taking two steps down and one back

up from the starting point!)

 Now perhaps you will believe me when I say Giant Steps is a Doddle, in Part VIII , More Things

to Think About .

Art Pepper, alto, Russ Freeman, piano, John Heard, bass, Carl Burnett, drums. Sage & Sound

Studio, Hollywood, Los Angeles, California, July 30 th  or 31st , 1980.

 Note that although Stit t is the album leader, he doesn 't play on this track . It 's a feature for Art

Pepper. The album is one of a series (Konitz' High Jingo is another) where the formula is 'X and

his West Coast Friends', where the friends always prominently include Pepper. There were 2 led by Stit t, both used in this Companion, and I know of ones by Jack Sheldon and Pete Jolly. And

there may well be others. 

Track 8. Oleo. Miles Davis (1).

Track 11.  I’m Afraid the Masquerade is Over.  Sonny Stitt (3).

Sonny Stitt, alto, Don Patterson, organ, Billy James, drums. NYC August 25, 1964. If the start

seems a touch abrupt, it's because the song is the second in a medley, and I had to cut in!

Track 12.  I’m Afraid the Masquerade is Over.  Milt Jackson (1).

Jackson, vibes, Frank Wess, flute, Hank Jones, piano, Kenny Burrell, guitar, Percy Heath, bass,

Art Taylor, drums. Atlantic Studios NYC, c 1959.

 NB, due to a typographical error, the D on page 153, in the example of Grigson 's 'alternat ive' bass

notes is under the Bb, not the Bb7.

 Note too, that the #IV diminished chord is not the result of any exotic theory. Jus t as with the #I

diminished in the rhythm turnaround, the diminished triad is reached by simply raising the root of

the preceding chord a half step, but leaving the other two notes of the triad alone. So F A C

 becomes F# A C. Louis uses both set s of notes in his Chimes Blues solo to emphasise the upward

movement, and what's more, you can hear Bud Scott's banjo go with him!

Pennies Turnaround

Track 13.  Hi Beck.  Miles Davis (1).

Davis, trumpet, Lee Konitz (leader), alto, Sal Mosca, piano, Billy Bauer, guitar, Arnold Fishkin,

Doo Wop Turnarounds

Go buy your own Whitney Houston! It was bad enough creeping out of a record shop with Patsy

Cline under my arm.

PassacagliasThe book should have made it clear just what the descending notes in this turnaround are. In C,

at two beats each the roots would be C Bb Ab G. Only the Bb is different in any way from a POT

with a substitution in it, of course. But the passacaglia is its own beast, and that wholestep down

from C to Bb is part of the relentless march to G!

Track 3. Friday the Thirteenth.  Roswell Rudd (1).

Rudd, trombone, Steve Lacy, soprano, Misha Mengelberg, piano, Kent Carter, bass, Han Bennink,

drums. Barigozzi Studio, Milano, June 25th

Blakey, drums, Lee Morgan, trumpet, Wayne Shorter, tenor, Bobby Timmons, piano, Jymie

merritt, bass. Live from the Paris Olympia, May 13th  1961.

Since we used the track the book refers to already, under Amen Cadences, here's a different one.

It's still by Blakey but it's by the band after Wayne Shorter replaced Golson. I remember this tour

very well, because as a student I made the journey from my University town Nottingham to

Leicester (where ironically I now live) to see it. My first ever great live jazz experience was

seeing and hearing Lee Morgan play  Paper Moon .
