I'd like a transcription of Rich's playing on The Sound of the Wasp. If anyone's already done this, it would be awesome!

If my memory is correct, someone transcribed his helicon solo on Sweet Georgia Brown. I believe it was published in the I.T.E.A. Journal several years ago.

Ooh, that would be perfect! I want to add one of his solos to my daily routine. I'd transcribe it, but time is short.

If only I knew where it was...Maybe I have that edition buried somewhere, but I don't know.

I would love you forever if you completed it! Even twice as much if you included his bassline, too...his walking is something I can't compare to.

All the old journals will be in an online archive at iteaonline.org in the readily foreseeable future. Looks like everything back to 2004 is available now.

Now that's pretty cool, but I'm no longer a part of ITEA.

Oh my god, dude. This is awesome. I love, love, love you.

I still ain't putting out, though.

Yeah, he was something else. I get compliments on my solos all the time, but I want to wow cats with my soloing. So I wanted to go to the source. And I really dig his bassline on this track. Simple, but swings hard!

I transcribed Matteson's solos to "Avalon" and "Sweet Georgia Brown" many years ago with primitive notation software. My versions are slightly different from the ones that were published in the T.U.B.A. Journal. Listen to the recordings and decide for yourself which ones are closer to the truth.

This is awesome. I love that you put the chord symbols above the Avalon solo. Makes studying it much easier! What did you use to engrave the music? It almost looks like something you'd find in the Colorado Cookbook.

Do you know which issue the transcriptions are in?

I think the notation software I was using back then was called "Music Writer" by Pyware.
There are plenty of better ones out there now. Sorry I neglected to put the chord symbols into the other chart, but you can find them in any fakebook. (The "Creole Fakebook" can be downloaded free, in several transpositions including bass clef; just google it.)

I don't remember which issue the Matteson solo transcription(s) were published. Maybe I will go through the stack of journals to find them some day when I am snowed in, if I remember.

Thanks. No problem. I'm a professional copyist and thought it was interesting to see a font style that's like something out of decades past. It's just pretty cool to see.

Creole Fakebook? I've got over 100 fakebooks, but not that one! Though, I probably don't need it, with that many...and Avalon is in plenty of those books, lol. And iReal Pro has replaced the need of any of them these days!

Heh. No rush. Looks like yours are pretty accurate.
