Hi all, the people of cafe saxophone have bestowed upon me..........the ballad of the month.
So I decided to pick "Naima" by John Coltrane, as this months ballad.
Coltrane has stated that it was his favourite composition.
Thanks to Chris, for his usual brilliance, thanks to Trimmy for recommending me...........
(From Chris).........
"OK guys here we go all the sheets and an mp3 can be found here, NAIMA
("This file now has an extra track, that has just one chorus plus ending, to match the sheet")
There is no intro to the backing just the drum clicks, there are x3 choruses with the long tag ending, hopefully
that should be clear enough from the sheet,
Tempo is around 60bpm, and it still ended up longer then 'Tranes' version"
