  • Randy Aldcroft 2 JAZZ DUETS for Tenor & Bass Trombones Volume II Randy Aldcroft 1
    These duets were written for the intermediate and advanced student interested in playing jazz. The range of notes gets higher and the duets get harder with each volume. The chord changes are included to help learn the structure and chord progressions, and so the duets may be played with a rhythm section if desired. Learn a little piano so you may visualize and hear the chord structures and follow their patterns. “Roll” those 8th notes. Keep the duets “swinging”. - Randy Aldcroft 2 JAZZ DUETS for Tenor & Bass Trombones Volume II randy aldcroft 1. q=128 > ° œ ˙ œ > œ œ œ > ? b3 Œ Œ œ bœ Œ Œ Œ nœ œ bœ Œ Œ Trombone b 4 F7 B¨7 F7 B¨7 - 3 j 3 3 j 3 ? b3 ‰‰ œ ‰‰ œ Œ Bass Trombone ¢ b 4 œ œ œ œ ˙ ™ œ œ œ œ œ ˙ ™ œ œ 5 > > ™ > nœ> ™ - > ™ bœ> ™ > ™ ° nœ œ œ œ bœ> ™ ˙ ™ ˙ ™ œ œ ˙ œ œ ˙ ? bb Œ ‰ F7 B¨7 EØ7 A7(b9) D‹7 BØ7 E7(b9) AØ7 > D7(b9) > > > œ> ™ b-œ > ™ œ ™ > ™ ? b ™ œ #˙ ™ nœ œ ˙ ‰ œ #˙ ¢ b ˙ ™ œ œ ™ nœ œ > > ° 13 nœ> ™ œ ™ #œ> ™ nœ> ™ b˙ ™ ˙ ™ œ œ ˙ œ bœ> ? bb Œ Œ A¨Ø7 > ™ D¨7(b9) G¨Œ„Š7 C7(b9) F7 B¨7 bœ> ™ bœ > > j 3 3 j 3 ? b œ ™ œ ™ b˙ ™ nœ œ œ ‰ ‰ ¢ b œ œ œ œ ˙ ™ œ œ œ œ œ 3 19 > > ™ > ° nœ œ œ œ œ bœ> nœ œ œ œ bœ> ™ ˙ ™ ˙ ™ œ œ ˙ ? bb Œ Œ Œ Œ F7 B¨7 - F7 B¨7 EØ7 A7(b9) D‹7 > > > ? b œ Œ œ ™ œ #˙ ™ nœ œ ˙ ¢ b ˙ ™ œ ˙ ™ œ œ ™ nœ œ Copyright © 2015 Randy Aldcroft - All Rights Reserved Published and Distributed by Cherry Classics Music www.CherryClassics.com 14 Aldcroft - Jazz Duets Vol.

  • Discography of the Mainstream Label
    Discography of the Mainstream Label Mainstream was founded in 1964 by Bob Shad, and in its early history reissued material from Commodore Records and Time Records in addition to some new jazz material. The label released Big Brother & the Holding Company's first material in 1967, as well as The Amboy Dukes' first albums, whose guitarist, Ted Nugent, would become a successful solo artist in the 1970s. Shad died in 1985, and his daughter, Tamara Shad, licensed its back catalogue for reissues. In 1991 it was resurrected in order to reissue much of its holdings on compact disc, and in 1993, it was purchased by Sony subsidiary Legacy Records. 56000/6000 Series 56000 mono, S 6000 stereo - The Commodore Recordings 1939, 1944 - Billy Holiday [1964] Strange Fruit/She’s Funny That Way/Fine and Mellow/Embraceable You/I’ll Get By//Lover Come Back to Me/I Cover the Waterfront/Yesterdays/I Gotta Right to Sing the Blues/I’ll Be Seeing You 56001 mono, S 6001 stereo - Begin the Beguine - Eddie Heywood [1964] Begin the Beguine/Downtown Cafe Boogie/I Can't Believe That You're in Love with Me/Carry Me Back to Old Virginny/Uptown Cafe Boogie/Love Me Or Leave Me/Lover Man/Save Your Sorrow 56002 mono, S 6002 stereo - Influence of Five - Hawkins, Young & Others [1964] Smack/My Ideal/Indiana/These Foolish Things/Memories Of You/I Got Rhythm/Way Down Yonder In New Orleans/Stardust/Sittin' In/Just A Riff 56003 mono, S 6003 stereo - Dixieland-New Orleans - Teagarden, Davison & Others [1964] That’s A- Plenty/Panama/Ugly Chile/Riverboat Shuffle/Royal Garden Blues/Clarinet

Bill, if we could start with you stating your full name, your birth date, and where you were born. Holman: My full name is Willis Leonard Holman. I was born in Olive, California, May 21st, 1927. Brown: Where exactly is Olive, California? Holman: Strange you should ask [laughs]. Now it‟s a part of Orange, California. You may not know where Orange is either. Orange is near Santa Ana, which is the county seat of Orange County, California. I don‟t know if Olive was a part of Orange at the time, or whether Orange has just grown up around it, or what. But it‟s located in the city of Orange, although I think it‟s a separate municipality. Anyway, it was a really small town. I always say there was a couple of orange-packing houses and a railroad spur. Probably more than that, but not a whole lot.
