Tomorrow's Blues Today

Tomorrow's Blues Today is a somewhat different kind of 'blues.' While it employs the normal 12-bar chorus format, it uses minor seventh chords insted of major or dominant chords in the first eight measures of the 12-bar chorus. Yet, it's not a minor blues, because it sounds major as a result of the minor 7th substitutions, which do not resolve to dominant 7th chords in II-V sequences. The only dominant 7th chord in any chorusm occurs in the 9th and 10th measures, a C7 raised 9th. Solos are for 1st Tenor and 4th Trumpet. Not a difficult chart, about a '2' or '3', 'Tomorrows...' should go down smoothly in a medium swing tempo (quarterr note = 108). Trumpet 1 to double high G.
