It's ok to be off! This chart's harmonic structure uses only the last eight bars of a 12-bar blues - the first four bars of a typical blues are missing! - hence the title 1/3 Off. A perfect teaching tool for learning how to play in the same groove the great Count Basie bands of the 1950s and 1960s achieved. Your rhythm section will lay down a metronomically steady beat while the horns play their rhythmic phrases in a more relaxed manner. With an infectious melody and two shout choruses, students can improvise a solo using the notes of the concert C blues scale. Suggested solos are provided in all the parts.
