    It was posted by MCJazzer in 2013. I just copied it here to add content to Jerry’s thread. We’re all in this together.

    I Love Music - Ahmad Jamal

    Been working on this one for a while! Arguably the most influential song by one of the greatest pianists ever, who changed hip hop forever with this tune. Peace be upon him.

    I notated the harmony and structure specific to the when the drums and bass join at 3:49, though the entire song follows an AABA form of 32 bars with minor alterations (Aalt becoming a Gm in 2nd bar).
