    Bob,

    Nice chart. Thanks for the lead sheet.

    The lead sheet shows Fm9 at the start of the B section; your chart shows F∆9.

    I have to disagree with the transcriber using the overly complicated Abm13#5 and then Abo7. Abo alone (or Abo7) serves for both.

    Cheers,
    Jer

    Thank you Jer

    I corrected my B section error on the posted chart.

    I agree with you on the Abo chord which I chose not to change in order to illustrate a “player friendly” way to chart non-recognized chords.

    The original Ab-13#5 isn’t recognized by the player and although it would display as written, it would be overprinted by the subsequent chord and only an Ab bass note would sound.

    By changing it to Ab-6, a compatible (though incomplete) chord would sound and be visible.
    I used text to show the #5 because adding it to the chord quality would also make it unrecognized.

    While an Abo would work for the entire measure, I left both chords to ensure some movement in the player.

    Thanks for your insights and catching my error.
