Also, here is the sheet to see the note structure.

psh hardly (and double time feel doesn't count, either). Jazz is all about the 8th note, so you won't find it there lol.

Nope, not talking about double time. I mean I have played a number of charts over the past couple of years which were in 4/4 with swung 16ths (for big band). Of course they're not the norm, but they are out there.

Olimar12345

Must be newer stuff. Normally in jazz the sixteenth note is straight when the eighth is swung.

Off the to if my head:


Ack, couldn't find McConnell's Boss Brass version, but this will do.

Tunes like Cissy Strut and The Chicken, charts like Can't Take My Eyes Off You and Easy (yeah Lionel Richie!), and anything else in a 16th note shuffle groove.

But yeah it took a moment to get the hang of it the first time I read it.

A major (3 sharps).

EDIT: Dudeman is correct: A minor.

What key and time signature is this in?



I have a feeling it's in swing 4/4 and E flat major but I'm not so sure.

It is in 4/4 Swung Time but the key signature is Bb Major. (I'm pretty sure)
