This almost totally improvised and multi-artistic performance entilted "The Journey" pictures the evolution of two human beings into a supposed post apocalyptic world.

I’ve recently transcribed this great Art Blakey Solo on the tune “The Theme” by Miles Davis. It’s from an amazing recording by the Jazz Messengers entitled “Ugetsu” which I urge you to check out if you don’t know it yet.

I have the solo written down so feel free to get in touch if you want a copy of it!
