That is amazing and will be valued by all of us who have struggled, eg, with Waltz for Debby.

Just to go into Mr Boring mode, if I may, a pianist friend of mine wrote to Bill Evans while he was at Scotts and asked for guidance on the chords for WfD which was brand new then and not as familiar to us as it is now. Bill replied with the chords which he had jotted down on a scrap of paper during the interval.

Hey Adrian, amazing work, thank you so much! I play Waltz for Debby with my jazz trio and although I have most of the bass part worked out, this is a really big help. I wish I'd known about Bill Evans years ago.
