OP Mike Laatz Apprentice M Joined: Oct 2006 Posts: 207 South Africa	I've lost a list I had of lots of jazz standards, grouped into same or similar chord sequences.(For example, "I got rhythm" chords are the same as those in "Cottontail" and several other songs.) Can anyone help? Even one or two at a time would be great. Regards Mike Laatz Capetownjazz.com mikelaatz@telkomsa.net Mike Laatz Cape Town

Everyone should know Rhythm Changes in Bb and Eb at the least, inclusive of all the modified bridges that have evolved. --Mac PGmusic FAQs, Tutorials and Updates! click here You must be Audiominds. www.audiominds.com
