A Jazz Messenger alumnus, saxophonist Watson writes with a characteristic hard-swinging edge to his contemporary rhythms and harmonies. UNISON FRONT LINE INSTRUMENTATION RECORDED AS A QUARTET Front Line: Alto Sax , B-flat, C treble clef, C bass clef Rhythm Section: Piano, Bass, Drums, Guitar Piano Voicings by Mulgrew Miller Bass Lines by Curtis Lundy FULL SCORE [JRTS]* This has great rhythmic counterpoint between melody instruments and rhythm section. A lot of fun, when it all comes together. SOLOS: The solo changes are neither simple nor extraordinarily difficult. Common chords are arranged in an uncommon progression, but the changes have an internal logic and a recognizable pattern that gives the solost a harmonic anchor. These may take a little work, but the work will pay off for an improviser of any ability level. * Jazz Repertory Transcription Series includes chord voicings, bass lines, drum fills and cued melody lines in rhythm section parts.
