Transcription: Max Roach solo on "Daahoud"

[User555]

Hi. I just finished this. I'm sure someone will appreciate a classic bebop solo. I love the triplet cross rhythms in the B section. I'm not sure about the sticking in the last A section. It just made sense to me to play it that way, and it feels real cool. Also, the HH (left foot on 2 and 4) continues through the first four bars, but until I register Sibelius it's gonna be left out. Enjoy.

P.S. This is from the 1954 Clifford Brown and Max Roach recording.

That's cool. Were you just learning it by ear, or do you have another transcription? I tried learning it by ear at first, but I couldn't figure out exactly what was going on with those triplets near the end.

I am learning it by ear but I might end up writing it out for myself depending on my mood
