No doubt this has been covered before.

Are there any copyright issues with sharing arrangements of cover tune?
I'm specfically excluding the melody.

Can we do it here?

I've got a hundred or so I've worked up i'd be willing to trade.


Currently I'm looking for a take on Clifford Brown's "BluesWalk'
The fast bop (200+bpm) styles work fine for the 12 bar blues.
Just looking for the right combination of pushes and rests for the 7#9 chord that opens the song.

The User Showcase Info and FAQ states:
"The songs must be originals, no copyrighted or "cover" songs. You must have all of the rights to the songs."

I understand that you can share songs with Chords only, and no Melody. I don't believe that Chord progressions can be copyrighted (but I'm also not a lawyer... wink )

Others have covered this topic many times.
