Hey guys,
This thread reminded me a a chart I have that you might be interested in.
This is a composition by Joe DiOrio called, "Blues for Bela" - that's Bela Bartok, and obviously it's a bit outside.
Joe played this a few times for us at G.I.T. back in 1978-79, and my roommate, David Carlson from Sweden transcribed it. He then showed it to Joe who confirmed it was accurate. Then, for our GIT class of '79 graduation party, David and Joe got up and played it together. I think it was a highlight in David's life. Anyway, David shared his score with me, and now I'm sharing it with you.
Hope you like it. It's a bit bizarre, but the more you hear it, it grows on you. Enjoy!
Thanks for the Diorio stuff! BTW: For those of you the belong to eMusic, the "It's About Time" CD just became available a few weeks ago. However, in typical eMusic fashion, it is listed under Dom Moio (not Diorio!), who is a sideman on the album.
I was a '79-'80 grad of GIT. Joe was sporadically around and the only time we really got to see him play was when Pat Metheny came for a seminar and he and Joe played a few tunes. Watching them play made me realize how amazing Joe was, and also how good Metheny was. They killed it on standard tunes. Joe's an amazing person.
You guys beat me to Joe by a few years (GIT Class of 1987). Loved my time with Joe. He taught me one thing that has stuck with me all these years: "All's well that ends well". Great transcriptions. Thanks guys.
Ha! And I'll split the difference...GIT 1984. Joe was around once a week or so during my year...and he remains to this day one of my greatest musical heroes. I love his "To Jobim With Love" CD.
Joe has always been one of my favorites. He actually played with my uncle Wally Cirillo in the seventies. An album called solo duo. I met joe when I was 15 ...back in the seventies and studied with him briefly in Miami. I have studied his playing ever since...still learning...for me... the Coltrane of guitar...
I was half joking? But I like the sounds.
But to me what makes it sound like you’ve done a modern is when you have a derpy derp major triad in the upper structure of a chord as opposed to...
Thank you Christian. Fact is, it's not a chord I've tried to incorporate into my playing, just behind the times I guess....

You can...

Too many musicians and not enough young people who value music enough to pay for it creates a problem for working musicians. Just as too many cheap, imported guitars has created a problem for US...
I mean at the time they said it was too dissonant to start a tune with
9 x 8 7 9 x
but that’s what young wrote. which was unsual at the time.
so
6 x 7 6 5 5
At the risk of being on topic, this sounds useful, I know zilch about Linux though.

My Fender guitars have Asian made tuners and Asian made cases.
The Pots on all of these guitars are probably Asian made.

The joke is that if you could play most of a Bbmaj7#11#9, then it would look an awful lot like Bbo(maj7)
All the alternate changes are coming from the same place.

?? - I can't think of a way to voice a chord with three semitones in it on the guitar (A/Bb, E/F, C#/D)
P.S. - Probably the only possibility: 1-0-0-3-2-0
What a lovely way to begin a tune!...
He sure does. I didn’t know there was a controversy about that first chord until I saw some Mike Moreno video a few years ago. I learned it from the real book when I was 17 or something and then the...
