Ahmad Jamal sample breakdown

on: April 05, 2011, 05:18:57 PM

Hello, i need some help with that Ahmad Jamal sample, i want to play the exact same chords - only things i got right are the passing notes(A,Bb), and the second passage (Cm7, Dm7,Fm7). I also think that last two chords voicings have some fourths in them, i`m not sure. Can someone ear-trained could tell me exact chords and voicings ? I would be really grateful.

Hi raz21,

the links you sent are not available in my country. Could you tell the songs name and the exact bar where the Jamal sample is?
I have almost all Jamal CD's at home and it would be easy to figure out the chords.
