AOS 3 ALL BLUES MILES DAVIS

Basic facts about ALL BLUES  This track is from the ALBUM KIND OF BLUES which was recorded in one take in NY in 1959  Line-up is trumpet /alto sax / tenor sax / piano/bass / drums  Unusually for Jazz the time signature is 6/4 and is marked JAZZ WALTZ  This is MODAL JAZZ – this means that rather than relying on complicated chord patterns the harmony focuses on a MODE or scale and the improvised solos are freer

KIND OF BLUE 1959

The recording  MILES DAVIS gave his band for this track the minimum of preparation before they went into the studio in New York in 1959  They got given some scales ( MODES) and melody lines to improvise on  Each track including this one on the album had only one take and the whole album was recorded in just 2 sessions. However all the musicians were at the height of their playing abilities

The band- MILES DAVIS- trumpet CANNONBALL ADDERLEY-alto sax JOHN COLTRANE-tenor sax JIMMY COBB-drums BILL EVANS –piano PAUL CHAMBERS -bass

This is the chord pattern for ALL BLUES 4/4 G7 G7 G7 G7 C7 C7 G7 G7 C7 C7 G7 G7 D7#9 Eb7#9-D7#9 G7 G7 D7#9 Eb7#9-D7#9 G7 G7  Notice there are DOMINANT sevenths used and that the last line has ALTERED chords where basically the harmony is made more interesting by adding notes

Structure of ALL BLUES  INTRO  HEAD – this is where the original tune or melody is played  IMPROVISED SOLOS-trumpet / alto sax / tenor sax / piano  HEAD- the main theme returns  OUTRO-this fades out

RIFFS – what are they?  A RIFF is a short rhythmic ostinato- very common in Jazz, Blues & Pop.  KIND OF BLUE uses 3 short riffs  The first G D ED F DED is on Double Bass  The second the alto and tenor saxes play in the intro in 3rds (in harmony)  D/B E/C F/D E/C

THE INSTRUMENTS & THEIR ROLES  The RHYTHM section provides the harmony and rhythmic background- in this case it is the DRUMS / BASS / PIANO  The frontline instruments are TRUMPET,ALTO SAXOPHONE & TENOR SAXOPHONE  THE WORD COMPING means accompanying- playing the background chords & rhythms
