Hello all,

Just finished up the first track on Let Me Loose! Planning to do the whole album in the next month or two, but you have to start somewhere!



You can download the .pdf at my website at your leisure.

Story, a guy did a transcription of some Frank. Then when Frank was in town he went to see him perform. Proudly showed him the transcription. Frank looked it over, then said, "Sh__, I can't play that!"

Tell, you, what, the sound of those Eb's and the tonguing of them, had me really sad all day. Man oh man...

No kidding!

Also, sorry for line 6, measure 2, beat 4. Sounded like he was in between pitches, but I never really could quite figure out what was going on there...if anyone has ideas, happy to revise!

There are some note mistakes and some things I would write differently - like in the first line how about Eb to Db instead of C#. Same in line 4.
At the end of the first line I would have chosen Ab-Eb-F-G.
Line 5, bar 2, last 3 notes F-D-(Bb). And fix the rests in the last bar of that line...
Line 6 where you mentioned, he is between pitches but I would write Db-C instead of C#-C. It makes sense and I think that was his intent.

Those are just the first things that pop out to me, but you should check the whole thing at a slow playback speed.
