Lester Young: Transcription of the Astounding "After You've Gone," BONUS For Paying Subscribers
When I posted it in this series, Young’s amazing 1938 solo on “After You’ve Gone,” from a radio broadcast, created quite a sensation. Now, as a bonus for Paying Subscribers, saxophonist Carl Woideck, author of books on Bird and Trane, shares his carefully notated transcription of what Pres plays. He made this in 2016.
In 2017, Kevin Sun also transcribed the solo and he performed it on the sax, as you’ll see in a video below! So please CONTINUE SCROLLING down!
