Anytime you post a recording, there's always "that guy" who is going to ask for the sheet music.


Is the sheet music available?

Very nice recording, by the way.

interesting/unusual...

Back in my high-school guitar-playing days (again: in the 70's, $35 playing nylon-stringed guitar for a cocktail party was way better than $1.65/hr. for drying off cars at a car wash), I was fascinated with that l.p. ("Time Out", which was not new - actually released well over a decade earlier) and taught myself two or three of the tunes (those that seemed as though they would work out on guitar). ...I did a bunch of "pull-offs" and "hammer-ons" with the nylon strings (on "Blue Rondo" - even though they are not considered to be part of "classic" guitar technique.

A friend and I played a piano-guitar version of that ("Take Five") at (probably...??) some sort of high school fund raiser (LOL...NO $35 - gratis - ...and probably a "spaghetti supper"), and I'm thinking we also played "Blue Rondo à la Turk". (Most everything else was either light pops, movie themes, or - what I mostly liked playing - "bossa nova" stuff.)
