    From Jackie's Bag album

    I have to admit it's not completely full in fact.
    the very slow intro at the beginning is omitted.

    dedicated to iReal Pro player

    It's obviously worse to see than the chart above,
    but it sounds better to me when it is played by iReal player.

    Hi,

    Can you explain your A1, B1, C1 etc. chords ?

    shin1ro,

    If what you mean by the "1" chords is that you just want the bass note of each one, there's a less cluttered way to indicate it.

    For example, to hear just an "A" in the bass, hit the vertical oblong shape to the right of the fermata and then type "A." When you go out of Edit mode the shape disappears and you're left with "/A."

    Cheers,
    Jer

    MontunoResonante,
    They're a (dirty) trick only for iReal player that make the piano (or the other chord instrument you choose) stop playing.
    Unfortunately we have to ignore the unavoidable error message by clicking YES (bothersome), and it is intentional.

    Jer,
    I know what you mean.
    I already did what you said.
    (You will find the 6-7th bars in my previous "Appointment in Ghana (full)" chart)

    But it's too loud to hear the piano comp plays all through
    the first chord *every* beat.
    Thus I chose to stop the piano and to play bass line at the same time.

    What I'd like to do in the first place was
    "long" chords with a half note or whole note
    with a bass line with quarter notes
    and I failed to do so.

    I tried a notation such as "N.C./A" but it was rejected to put on the chart by the editor..

    Cheers,
    shin1ro

    Good trick! I didn't know that one, as I never use the piano chords.

    Thank you!
