Satellite - Joe Locke

A few days ago I went back to a video clip Joe sent Ed & I over a year ago and transcribed the first two choruses. This is one of Joe's practice sessions over Coltrane's tune "Satellite", which is based on the standard "How High The Moon". Joe was incredibly kind to let us share this treasure with you. I also thought this would be a nice "segue" to Ed's great solo over Coltrane's tune "GiantSteps", which we posted earlier this month. The connection being that on "Satellite"Coltrane also used the "three tonic system" as re-harmonization technique.
