    Have you downloaded the Great Gig Book (Blue Book) pdf?

    The price is right.

    You will want the "C" version if you buy books.
    There sure are a lot of RealBooks out there...

    There's only one page on your link. Second page?

    Here's what I have:

    Seventh Street Blues Rev - Martha Mier

    Your Bb7 chords could just as well be Bb6 chords. Since the composer only has plain vanilla triads, which in themselves are not very bluesy, you're free to make whatever changes you like to make it more soulful.

    Cheers,

    johand,

    Here's the complete tune.

    Seventh Street Blues Rev 2 - Martha Mier

    The G7b13 chords could be straight G7 chords. The Eb in the melody is just a blue note that needn't be reflected in the chord.

    The G7b13 in bar 11 and the G7#5 at the end of the bridge are the same chord. However, the melody over the G7b13 includes a natural 5 (D), and I don't like to notate chords that contradict what's in the melody. One solution is to show two different chords in bar 11: G7#5 under the Eb note and plain G7 under the D note.

    Cheers,
    Jer
