Here’s another great solo transcription from John Blevins. \u00a0John has graciously sent me a number of his transcriptions and given me permission to share them with the sax world on my site here. This is another great sax solo by Bob Mintzer. \u00a0 The tune is New Rochelle\u00a0from the album “Latin from Manhattan” and the solo starts at the 3:46 mark of the song.<\/p>\n

There a lot of great ideas and lines in this solo to learn from so I hope you enjoy it. Check out Mintzer’s use of the C blues scale throughout the solo. \u00a0I love the classic Mintzer lick at bars 60-61. \u00a0Thanks again to John Blevins for transcribing this and sharing it with all of us.<\/p>\n

Update: \u00a0I decided to make a revised version of Johns original transcription above. \u00a0I added some chords to the chart and made a few minor changes in measures 18,62,37,45 and 58. \u00a0(When I was playing the rewrite to the recording super slow I heard a few different notes than John had notated). I\u00a0also changed the meter to cut-time and spaced the transcription out to 4 bars on a line to make it easier to read. \u00a0I believe all the chords are fairly accurate although in measure 9-12 and 15-16 I was undecided on how to notate those chords. \u00a0I started with Eb11 then changed it to Eb9sus4 as I didn’t hear the third in there. \u00a0Then finally I decided to notate the chord as Bbm7\/Eb. \u00a0These are all very similar chords so in the end I don’t think there is a big difference. \u00a0If you are hearing anything different than I am please let me know (especially if your name is Bob Mintzer……..) \u00a0 Thanks, \u00a0 Steve<\/p>\n
