Dewey Square

[JohnoL]

I am working on Dewey Square from the omnibook.
This is a little lazy on my part, but it seems to me like the chord progression is a little irregular. Could someone outline the progression or give me some insight about whether it's aaba or whatever?

Yes it is AABA

Thanks, that looks right, it just seems like in the omni book when the solos start the chord progression deviates slightly, but I am really more interested in the head anyway.

I compared your condensed version to the Longer version in the omni book and I think I have it figured out now. That pdf was a big help. Thanks again.

Thats cool.. not familiar with the omni book..I guess its a big book of Bird tunes. I feel sometimes we get lost in complicated changes and such. It's actually pretty straight forward chord -wise
