Thad & Mel query


Spontooneous

Just a small point: it's "Bachafillen". I mainly know because a pianist that I used to play with brought a chart of it to our gig one night, in the early 70s. We felt our way through it that night and enjoyed playing it. It is a brief, 16-measure structure. Using the "AABA" kind of notation, it is just "A".

A great tune, BTW. Not totally unlike "Stolen Moments".

Also shows up on Booker Ervin's "Heavy!!!"

Yes, that's how it is spelt on Ervin's 'Heavy'. The spelling used for this tune on the original Solid State album is however 'Bacha Feelin''.
