Today we lost a jazz lion, Freddie Hubbard. I’ve spent countless hours digesting his music and transcribing his solos so his death deeply touches me. His art was a major influence on my jazz vocabulary. If you don’t own Speak No Evil, you’re missing out.

I took one of my handwritten transcriptions and put it in the Logic Studio score editor this afternoon to give you a taste of his genius. I hope you enjoy it.
