Everybody Loves the Blues
$25.00 Add to cartAn original written with Maynard…so it’s a trumpet feature. Starting as a slow blues (flugelhorn & guitar) it builds into a medium swing with lots of ensemble shouts. Solos by trombone (with Ellington inspired harmonies) and alto sax in straight ahead blues, before returning to a trumpet solo…..eventually trading 2’s with the whole trumpet section. A real tour de force. This is available for pdf download $25

River Whale
$25.00 Add to cartAlthough written for Maynard’s band, it proved to be little too funky for the times. Luckily Eric Miyashiro set his fabulous Tokyo band after it and they brought it to life in a way MF never could. Another trumpet feature with lots of tight ensemble writing and a rhythm section that can dig on Tower of Power. This is available for pdf download $25

Stella By Starlight

Take That

The Spirit of St. Fred
$25.00 Add to cartA chart I wrote for Maynard featured on his It’s My Time CD….This one works well to feature a trumpet soloist with lyrical aspirations and R&B sensibilities.
