"Good
enough for jazz"
New
Orleans jazz is played by heart and ear. You fake some good old tunes
and improvise on the melodies and the chords they are built on. Most of
the tunes are forgotten a long time ago, nobody ask for them, nobody
should play them, and today they should have been almost useless if it
hadn't been for a few persons and bands who love early jazz and try
keeping this old music
alive. To preserve these tunes is more of a cultural achievement. Often
you have to transcribe them from old recordings, because there
has not been any sheet music available for many decades, if ever. Below
are some which of some reason have occurred. The transcriptions are
mostly an interpretation of the song and don't claim to be quite right,
simply just "good enough for jazz". The upper section with the chords
is for C-instruments (banjo, guitar, piano, bass), the lower with the
melody is for instruments tuned in Bb (trumpet, clarinet, soprano- and
tenor sax, trombone). Have a look at the tune, memorize it, put in your
soul, and play it hot!
