      Have you guys heard of impromastering.com ?

      Here’s the link – being if you are so inclined:

      http://impromastering.com/tunes

      It works like this –

      Tap in an artist – or song – on the content box, say for example, Gerry Mulligan
      or
      say, Fly me to the moon

      Up pops a music chart for ya edification. Howzat!!

      Howz this too – top RHS you can change the key to suit 1 or 5 steps up
      [concert / sax]
      LHS you can print offa the PDF file

      it only works for composers ‘though
      and pretty well jazz orientated

      some symbols to learn, anyways it’s all there
      eg
      A-7 the bar means minor7
      circle with a slash thru it means minor 7 with a flattened fifth
      triangle means major 7

      way cool !!!!
      check it out for your reeding pleasure
      happy days
      🙂

          No worries @Johnny am only to pleased to help.

          Here’s how i got into it, Keymaster –
          down the sailing club talking to my jazz guitar buddy, his name is John too
          he had a newish guitar out to strum on’ – being a spanky Ibanez George Benson hollowtop
          very spunky and ever so sweet, wow, finished in ash blonde and in mint cond
          relates he’s got twenty new songs to learn in two weeks for an upcoming gig with the jazz club
          no piano player on the night, so he has to carry the rythmn with the drummer, & there’s a double bass, trumpet and coronet
          hey man you’ll be interested in this he says, and shows me the rep
          hmm i says whats these ticks and dots means next to all the tunes mean??
          ok, apparently the dots are where he has downloaded the song from you tube to make an mp3, then to data stick
          the ticks he has downloaded the impromastering.com chart from site, or made his own music map
          aha i reckon, so knowing you John you’ve probably played all these tunes ten times over by now huh?
          ‘and the rest’ he says, and rolls his eyes ..

          lotsa tools available for us all theseadays and do trust you find that one is very rousing to use for you
          i really love your style mate you are a humble man and not a fatheaded know it all dude
          thanks Johhny
          🙂
          so anyway closing this day, says Mark Twain, i have never let my schooling interfere with my education.
