Hello everyone, Moment's Notice is a Coltrane tune that I have been working on and I whole heartedly recommend learning it. This tune works all aspects, comping some pretty heavy changes, single note playing and also lends itself very well to chord melody. The changes are pretty quick, and for some intimidating, but if taken in stride it's actually fairly simple. It's merely a number of II-V's moving up or down a half-step. Anyway, sorry about my grammar and incessant rambling but some tunes just ignite that spark again if you know what I mean. ;D

Hey, Always.
Have you got this one down yet? Are you up for posting the progression, or elaborating on some of the changes you like in it?
Which album is it on?
thanks

This is a nice tune. I don't play it anywhere near the speed of Coltrane. Maybe I'll make it into a ballad for something completely different.

Hello everybody, To answer your question, no. I don't have this tune completely down. I can play it fairly well but I wouldn't whip it out at a gig yet. I hate to say it but I don't know what album it's on. I've never even heard the tune as played by Coltrane. My piano teacher gave me the leadsheet and jammed on it for a minute at his piano. I would love to post the leadsheet but I haven't posted music on here before. Can I just scan it then copy and paste? How do you guys post leadsheets and what not? Anyway, I hope to hear again from everyone.
P.S. It may just be me but there doesn't seem to be much activity on our boards lately. What's everyone been up to?

You can post it from a scan, but it takes a few more steps, namely upload the scanned image to a free photo storage site (like photobucket), edit for size (probably 25%-50%), then copy and paste its URL in the reply box here (there's a place to click "insert image'). Sounds harder than it really is.
There's a thread called "Steve Playing" over at multimedia/pics, music, websites that took him through posting some pics.
Hope that helps!
