Riff-based blues tunes are always valuable when teaching young players to improvise, and here is one of the best! Arranged here for inexperienced players, this Sonny Rollins classic features a swing style at a moderate tempo, a simple melodic riff, and a flexible solo section for encouraging any player to give soloing a try using the blues scale. Chord/scale sheets in all keys are provided as well as fully-notated bass lines and piano voicings. This very appealing chart is also playable with optional reduced or expanded instrumentations. Highly recommended!
