Which do you go for? Yeh I know us jazzers should be able to play 'everything in every key' but what about rock and pop solos for example Your Latest Trick, Smooth Operator, Will You, Pick up the Pieces, Take 5 etc etc?
I ask 'cos I learned Your Latest Trick from a solos book in an easy key, C or G major I seem to recall but I never felt comfortable with the sound as it clearly wasn't the same key as on the record. Anyway, I am now putting that right and it seems the 'correct' key is F# major, not exactly the easiest to master.
So what do you lot think?
