Green Dolphin Street Arrangement

[momotor]

Hi all,
would anyone like to share an arrangement of Green Dolphin Street with me? I'm surprised I couldn't find one by searching this forum (or even the web in general)

Thanks in advance!

Thanks for this link. Great!

I used to visit this site too for solo guitar stuff:

Lick By Neck - Learn The Guitar Visually. Play The Guitar instantly! Teach The Guitar Globally!

Plenty standards there. The site distributes small apps that run on your machine .exe. The app shows chord symbol, fretboard and tab, while tune is playing. In the 'Solo Guitar' section.

I'm also trying to learn from Jimmy Bruno's new site:
Learn Jazz Guitar | Jimmy Bruno Guitar Workshop

His 2nd video on the above page teaches this tune in CM.

Could anyone please tell me what chords he played at the end (i.e, corresponding to the 5 consecutive G notes in the key of C)?

There's a version of On Green Dolphin Street in the chord melody book I'm learning from at the moment which is great jazz standards by Fred Sokolow. It's the first chord melody I've done and it's taken a month to learn all fourteen tunes. I can't play them from memory! But it's a good book. The arrangements are quite tasteful and it's pretty challenging. He also wrote a great book about chord melody which is called something like 'constructing a chord melody solo' which I have, and it's great because I have just started cross referencing one with the other and it helps to categorise all the substitutions.

Thanks!
I supposed these 4 chords correspond to the 4 G notes after the A in Measure#29. After these, the head end with a Cmaj7 with a G as the top note, right?

Too bad my knowledge is so poor that I still couldn't figure out the fingering of your 4 chords from the video (~1:15 in the video) I've watched it a dozen times.

Yes, that's right. You'd find these chords on most lead sheets for Green Dolphin Street.

As you develop, your ear should get good enough that you can just hear what he's playing. This may be a long way off for you, but it's never too early to start.

For ear training, I have my students use a program called Earmaster 5. But there is some free ear training stuff on the web (I can't remember where). Another, more challenging route, is to try to play or transcribe stuff you hear.
