Good Bait

September 12, 2012 in Bebop, Jazz Originals, Jazz Standards

“Good Bait” was written by Tadd Dameron. This is among one of his first compositions that he wrote for Dizzy Gillespie’s band which he was a part of in the 40′s. However it was made famous by Count Basie’s Orchestra. You can think of this song as similar to the A sections of a rhythm changes tune.
This tune settles into two key centers, Bb major and Eb major.
