I started messing with Apple Loops in GarageBand to make a backing track for jazz improvisation, and came up with something more appropriate for background music in the film "Boogie Nights." Feel free to download it if it's useful to you. Meanwhile, I have to reconsider whether I really belong here.

Well I like it, and I'll probably try ripping a very dirty solo over this sometime soon.
It's not "not jazz."

Put some nylon string over it and call it adult jazz or something.

Which particular loops did you use in garage band?

As a fer instance ... Not sure what this is, but I think I know how ...

PS, I took the liberty of editing it into a 12-bar form, because I can count to 12 but not to 10.Last edited by John A.; 12-16-2019 at 11:53 PM.

And I wonder if there is a way to end the loops at bar 11 and use some sort of midi track for a turn around in bar 12. I'm hearing a Hendrix-like E7#9 chord there.... (if we're still in A minor)
