Productions No part of this book may be reproduced or transmitted in any form, electronic or mechanical, without permission in writing from the copyright holder. Printed in Canada Ultimate Funk Grooves for Bb Saxophone 92 of the Funkiest Sax Riffs known to mankind FUNK A style of music born in the mid sixties, that carries with it an unmistakable ‘attitude’. RIFF An integral part of funk music. A short repetitive musical idea, or phrase. > ABOUT THE BOOK Funk, and its infectious style, remains a popular part of the music we listen to today. Timeless recordings from artists such as James Brown, The Commodores, Stevie Wonder and many more, continue to enjoy massive popularity, and have had a major influence on contemporary music styles, such as Hip-Hop, Rap, and R n’ B. The Saxophone in Funk music, has its place not only in the Horn sections so often heard in this genre, but also as a dynamic solo instrument. This book contains 92 riffs that showcase the different ways in which the soloist can create a distinct Funk sound to their playing. The CD that comes with the book contains 31 different grooves that accompany 1 each of the riffs, and covers a wide range of different Funk styles, from the mid-sixties to the present day. The book is intended for the musician who wants to practically develop their playing style and improvisation technique in this genre. > IMPROVISATION Successful improvisation in any style of music is about developing, through playing, some form of pre-prepared material. This can be in the form of a scale that works over a given groove/chord, or even some short musical ideas/phrases. The latter are commonly referred to as ‘Riffs’, and make up much of the soloing and structural motifs that we hear in Funk music. Through playing and further developing the 92 riffs contained in this book, the instrumentalist will gain a greater understanding of playing in this style, and can improve their soloing technique. 2 > GETTING STARTED Each page of the notation covers 1 of the 31 grooves included on the CD, and contains anything from 1 to 4 separate riffs that fit with the track. Each groove is recorded twice. The first version has the saxophone playing the riff against the track, followed by the same number of bars just rhythm section, for the instrumentalist to copy the given riff. The saxophone then plays the next riff on that page, and so on. The second version is an entire track of just the rhythm section. It is intended that the instrumentalist will start with the given riff, and use the extra space to develop further ideas. Whilst some of the riffs contained in the book are playable by beginners, the majority of the material is intended for the intermediate to advanced player. It will be necessary, with some of the more complex riffs, to practise them through first before using the CD. 3 > THE NOTATION EXPLAINED In order to notate these riffs as precisely as possible with regards to ’feel’ and certain specialized techniques, some different notation has been used in places. ‘Ghost Notes’ The second note in the extract below is an example of a note that should be played as a ‘Ghost Note’. The best way to describe these notes is that they should be felt but not heard. Pass the fingers over the note, and allow it to sound lightly, or even not at all. Alternative fingerings The purpose of the alternate fingering technique used in the book, is to add slight changes of tuning/timbre to repeated notes. A slightly different note head has been used to show when an alternative fingering should be applied – see the middle 16th. note of the group of 3 D’s in the example below. An extensive Saxophone fingering chart can be found online at the publishers website www.adgproductions.com. This chart covers standard, alternative, and even the altissimo fingerings required for some of the optional harmonics used in the book. 4 > FURTHER PRACTISE Getting out there and playing as part of a band is essential for getting the feeling of what Funk music is really about. In order to improve ones versatility as an instrumentalist, something that is vital for ensemble playing, the material in this book covers all different keys and many different styles of grooves at varied tempos. Each riff has been specifically written for one of the 31 Grooves, but part of the further development of this material should be the practice of adapting them over the other tracks on the CD. This will in some cases involve transposition and adaptation of the riffs to make them work over the given chords/key/style, but will prove an invaluable exercise in preparing oneself for playing in a band environment, either as a soloist or section member. > BONUS MATERIAL 6 Additional Grooves and 17 extra Riffs, that we were not able to include in the book, are available for free download in mp3 and pdf format from, www.adgproductions.com.

    Mose Davis Public Relations Information

    Mose Davis Public Relations Information “My name is Mose…and you can call me Mose” – Mose Davis That quote from Mose Davis can be heard on Hamilton Bohannon’s hit record “Let’s Start the Dance”. The tune is a smoking-hot club classic. And the quote cuts through the clutter and camouflage of funk wannabes, to reveal a pure fact – Mose is Mose. Before Stevie Wonder, before Bernie Worrell, there was Mose Davis pushing the frontiers of funk with his use of the organ as the source of the bass line, during the late 1960’s. And if imitation is the highest form of flattery, then Mose Davis has been flattered by the best. And some of the biggest names in hip-hop have sampled a sip of Mose’s musical brew, including Snoop, Mary J. Blige and Queen Latifah. Classically trained at the Detroit Conservatory of Music, Mose Davis is an exceptional jazz artist and prominent fixture on the Atlanta music scene. Davis identifies jazz greats, Jimmy Smith and Ahmad Jamal among his musical influences. Davis performs with top acts across the country and internationally. Mose Davis has performed with Candi Staton, The Isley Brothers, Marlena Shaw, David Ruffin, Ray Parker, Jr., The Counts, Funkadelics and Carl Anderson. His festival appearances include The Atlanta Jazz Festival (with the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra), The Macon Jazz Festival and the internationally renowned Spoleto Festival. And now comes the new CD, “Sunshine”. “It’s a mix of jazz – the rough and the smooth – blended with some Latin and rock influences,” Davis says.

All Ya Needs That Negrocity is Burnt Sugar's twelfth album since their debut in 1999. Tate shared his thoughts on jazz, afro-futurism, and James Brown. GOODISON: Tell me about your life before you came to New York. TATE: I was born in Dayton, Ohio, and we moved to DC when I was about twelve, so that would have been about 1971, 1972, and that was about the same time I really got interested in music, collecting music, really interested in collecting jazz and rock, and reading music criticism too. It kinda all happened at the same time. I had a subscription to Rolling Stone. I was really into Miles Davis. He was like my god in the 1970s. Miles, George Clinton, Sun Ra, and locally we had a serious kind of band scene going on.

    A Kirby Family Record Some Descendants of John Terrell Kirby and Some Ancestry of Associated Families-Bohannon, Haynie, Lipscomb, Posey, Terrell, and Wilkins

    A Kirby Family Record Some descendants of John Terrell Kirby and some ancestry of associated families-Bohannon, Haynie, Lipscomb, Posey, Terrell, and Wilkins Compiled by Terrell Marshall Sr. 2/26/2015 A Kirby Family Record – 2 Compiler’s Note The within Kirby Family Record was prepared by Terrell Marshall Sr. through correspondence with members of the family, and completed in 1953. It begins with the grandparents of John Terrell Kirby and Lavana Bohannon and continues through the fifth generation. Only descendants in a direct line from John Terrell Kirby are shown and the arrangement shows all descendants of each of his children. The second section contains ancestral data as to the Bohannon, Haynie, Lipscomb, Posey, Terrell, and Wilkins families as provided by my grandmother, May Kirby Thomas. A Kirby Family Record – 3 Editor’s Note My grandfather (Terrell Marshall Sr.) spent many hours gathering data, corresponding with relatives, and compiling the genealogical information that his grandmother (hereinafter referred to as MKT) had accumulated over the years. My grandfather, a lawyer, was a very methodical person and my belief is that the information he has gathered about current generations (i.e. current in the 1920s to 1950s) is quite accurate. Some of the ancestry information is suspect (and I have tried to comment on that so as not to have the reader take away any false impressions as to its accuracy). This information may provide no new information to the reader, but I felt I owed it to my grandfather to put this information in the public domain. I have tried to add some dates to persons who may have died since he originally “completed” this information, but was not able to find the information (or the time) to do it for everyone.
