Find Lead Sheet on Sheet Music Direct (PDF)Harmonic Highlights:
- Utilizes a 16-bar structure built on dominant 7th chords, primarily alternating between the tonic (Bb7) and subdominant (Eb7) to establish a blues-funk foundation.
- Features a rapid secondary dominant turnaround (D7–G7) that follows the cycle of fourths, providing a brief but high-tension departure from the tonic.
- The extended C7 section functions as an elongated II7 or V/V, creating sustained harmonic tension and rhythmic anticipation before resolving back to the Bb7 head.
Improvisation Focus: Blending the Bb Mixolydian scale with the Bb Minor Pentatonic/Blues scale.
Difficulty Rating: 2/5. The harmonic vocabulary is straightforward and repetitive, making it an ideal entry point for practicing dominant 7th soloing and syncopated funk phrasing.
