Always check your music…
In the first song of the Charlie Parker Omnibook**, “Confirmation“, I found:
5 wrong notes
2 missing turns
3 notes that they added which didn’t exist
1 missing note
3 wrong rhythms
And that’s just the first song!
I recommend checking with the recording before you assume any transcriptions are correct. Why don’t they hire me to re-edit and re-release it? Anyway, it keeps you on your toes when you learn those solos. Happy practicing…
