Jeff Jarvis

Fatback And Greens

Los Angeles-based jazz composer Jeff Jarvis has composed yet another tuneful funk chart for advancing groups that grooves from start to finish. This chart has all the characteristics that make Jarvis' best selling funk charts so popular with jazz bands everywhere. If you like Critical Mass, Honk, Old School, and Mohave Breakdown - then you've got to check this one out! It begins with a contemporary piano introduction, moving into a catchy melody presented initially in a two-part writing technique. Heavily syncopated piano comping, supported by staccato bass lines, will remind you of Tower of Power's bassist, Francis Rocco Prestia. A guitar chord chart by Jim Greeson is included in each set.
