Looking forward to playing this version.
Fixed a few things
1)Used skinny chord on crowded chords.
2) Put Wes Montgomery Ver. in the title so folks would know the source.
(Edit: corrected chart)

Don't post a playlist as the songs in a Realbook if the changes aren't from the book.
If you do transcribe changes from a book put it in the title RB1, RB2, GGB, Sher, etc

I prefer to code the actual title of the chart.
That way, I can easily identify the version in my index.
I do that for the charts different singers I work with use.
Also, using the style line for non-style info will add a new (non-style) style to every downloader's style list in their editor.
For me, it's cleaner to append an artist code to the actual title and clarify (if desired) using text.
Good use of S/N.

Nice Bob
I hadn't thought about the style issue. I tried putting Wes Montgomery in the title but it was too much.
If possible please delete my version

A suggestion for naming non-standard chord charts
Many of us do things like follow the title with an additional entry. In my case, I post charts with titles like "Title (k ver)" to let folks know that I'm not necessarily using fakebook changes or that there is an intro or coda or some other non-standard feature. I also try to describe my alterations in the posting. In this way, there is less confusion about the chord chart.

Here are several potential transitions from F to Ab. They are based on different versions I've been listening to but not exact transcriptions. This is just an exercise for me to decide which changes I like.

That is really cool thanks for posting
Im wondering if you should take the advice from 2 posts up and put" Mancini ver." in the title?

I would personally leave the title unchanged for
original versions and add the artist name in the title
for covers or other versions.
There are over 600 versions of this song. I notice
that people often reharmonize the song without even
knowing the original changes (from the composer).
This is why I posted it. Reharmonization can be great
if it uplift the melody and makes the song sound
better than the original. If not, better stick with the
original changes. I believe any serious musician
should always learn the original changes first before attempting to reharmonize it.

Here's a version of the Bill Evans' modulations for "Days of Wine and Roses." The turnarounds work better than Jonas'version, I think. Let me know!
