Here’s some F blues records I used for inspiration for the new blues lesson section:
Bill Evans Trio - Blues In F
Art Blakey & The Jazz Messengers - Moanin’
Hank Mobley - Greasin’ Easy:
Cannonball Adderly - Straight No Chaser:
Thanks Hayden! Great recordings! Will add a couple of these to my LP collection. Bill E is my favorite of course…
My pleasure Lori!
Yes Bill Evans F Blues is also my favourite… I wanted to include a lesson on his block chord style at 3:22s … such a great sound!
I did transcribe a little of it… he’s still sticking in the F Blues scale for most of it and just playing left hand voicings in unison underneath. Simple yet effective to add extra energy to the solo.
This is a really great record to start transcribing from!
Cheers 
This recording of Wes Montgomery in 1965 is an awesome rendition of Blues in F. My son plays guitar and I play piano and we are using this as inspiration.
I really dig Sonny Clark’s blues filled stylings. He doesn’t seem to get much love. Maybe because he’s not as fast or “sophisticated” as other name players? I really enjoy his sound though as blues always feels like home base to me.
Workout is such a great album !
Great track! I love Sonny Clarks simple bluesy playing style. His arrangement of Softly as in the Morning Sunrise is a personal favorite of mine!
Love the vibe @Aaron_R - thanks for sharing.
@Tuomo - maybe we could do a transcription study on Sonny Clark in the future.
