That's like the George Thorogood story, who, when asked why he didn't write more songs, replied "Chuck Berry already wrote them all."

Two thoughts:
re:听 I really wish that the poor weren't the ones that need to take
care of the poor.�
Martino听 wasn't poor. I'm sure he had a healthy bank account. But in
this country, serious medical expenses can bankrupt anyone who isn't in
the top "1%"听 -
and most folks don't have the exposure to get relief from sites like
gofundme. Likewise, most donors aren't necessarily poor either - as long
as they stay healthy.
I remember a similar situation not long ago with Kenny Burrell, who had
to raise money at gofundme, needed $150,000, got some $250,000
which put him and his family back on their feet again. A good outcome for
a bad situation - but what if he hadn't been famous?
re: "When we reduce our great artists to begging to ensure
corporate profits we need to rediscover our soul."
... so make that "anybody",听 not just "great
artists".听 Actually, successful artists will take a little
longer to get there.

Is it just me who finds these appeals profoundly depressing? If top-tier artists like Barney Kessel or Pat Martino can鈥檛 sustain themselves, what chance if any do the rest have? Is this an indictment of the US healthcare system, a lack of societal respect and support for the arts, an inability to save for a rainy day, or a bit of all of those factors and more?听

In 2009, a jazz guitarist from Maryland died in a plane crash. His music lives on.
In 2009, a jazz guitarist from Maryland died in a plane crash. His music lives on.
The Washington Post
Fifty lives were lost when Colgan Air Flight 3407 crashed outside of Buffalo on Feb. 12, 2009. Among them were two members of Chuck Mangione鈥檚 band: saxophonist Gerry Niewood and guitarist Coleman Mellett. Mellett, a 1992 graduate of DeMatha Catholic High School in Hyattsville, left behind hundreds of hours of recordings he鈥檇 made in the New Jersey home he shared with his wife, jazz singer Jeanie Bryson. 鈥淗e was up there in our studio, banging these things out, year after year,鈥� Bryson said. 鈥淭hey were never completed.鈥� Suddenly it seemed like they might never be. In some cases the music amounted to snippets: multiple takes of different sections of different songs, some recorded in digital formats that were no longer so easy to access.The story of the resurrection of the 34-year-old Mellett鈥檚 music is detailed in a documentary screening Thursday night at the AFI Silver Theatre.

Thanks Juan,
I thought I had missed something.
Yeah, it's being treated as a II in G (with a pedal D) instead of a I in C.
I hope you're doing great also, and wish you a Really Roaring 2020s!

Bobby,
Fair enough; in that case it's not really functioning as Cmaj7/D as much as it is an Am9/D or even Am9/11, right? This is a good example of how chord names can be deceptive or misleading; too many guitar players tend to name chords by their shape rather than by their context, it's a huge "rabbit hole". Hope all's well.
Cheers,
JV

Why? Cma7/D is nothing more then Am9/D (no root), and if one looks
at the Am7 as a II chord, the D bass is no stretch at all.

Hi,
I'd say it's probably "safer" to go with the Real Book changes but it is after all "jazz", so there's always room for variety as long as it doesn't stray too far. Many years ago I played this tune with a well-known NYC jazz guitarist whose name I won't mention, and I played a couple of different changes at the end. When we were done he got really pissed at me and said something to the effect of, "you can't change the chords...". I remember thinking, "wow, and you call yourself a "jazz" player"... I don't know which version you're listening to, but Cmaj7/D seems kind of a stretch replacement for Am7, although it'd probably work voiced "right". HTH.
Cheers,
JV

Subject: [Jazz-Guitar] Pent Up House #Improv #SonnyRollins
Can we discuss Pent Up House for a second? In regards to playing this tune, a guy teaching it whose opinion I respect has said that he's always played this Sonny Rollins tune with the "blowing changes", as listed in a couple of Real Books, which are Am7 - D7 - GMaj7 - - Am7 - D7 - GMaj7 - - Dm7 - G7 - Cm7 - F7 - Am7 - D7 - GMaj7 - -
However, the changes over the melody seem to be CMaj7/D - D7(b9,#5) - CMaj7/D - D7(b9,#5) - GMaj9 - Ab9 - GMaj9 - -
CMaj7/D - D7(b9,#5) - CMaj7/D - D7(b9,#5) - GMaj9 - Ab9 - GMaj9 -
Dm7 - G7(b9, #5) - Cm9 - F13 - Dm7 - G7(b9, #5) - Cm9 - F13 - GMaj9 - Ab9 - GMaj9 - -
I can see that both sets of changes are similar, but it sounds to me like Rollins sticks to the posted changes. I haven't heard much of other versions of the tune. Is it standard procedure to the more vanilla "blowing changes" for the whole tune? Anyone else do this?
