This review is from: Freddie Hubbard: Trumpet (Transcribed) (Paperback)

quality - notes are easy to read and the cover is good quality

accuracy - not checked for typo's and this is rather tedious to do

limitations - the round sound, phrasing, slurs, vibratto, etc can not be notationally recorded; also the solos vary from one recording to another, so the music cannot be used to follow his playing unless checked against the specific recording

usefulness - great for trumpet players who can test their ears

bonus - each song indicates bflat trumpet or flugelhorn (usually also a bflat instrument)

bottom line - a great book to evaluate freddie's methods and view the organization of his ideas

Great book that provides the head and Freddie Hubbard's solos on all the listed tunes. It also tells you which album from which each transcription was taken. If you want to improve your style and investigate Freddie Hubbard's, get this book along with the corresponding recordings.
