Jazz+ Posted July 7, 2014 Share Posted July 7, 2014 ||: C (2nd inversion) | G- | F | F mi :|| This triad progression is so familiar but I can remember which other songs use it. Hiromi's vamps with it on her new tune "Seeker". During this vamp she simply plays left hand triads in bouncy quarter note rhythm (like Errol Garner 4 to the bar). Her right hand runs fast, highly chromatic, bebop lines over it. Just transcribed right hand at 10:20 interlude.

Floyd Tatum Posted July 7, 2014 Share Posted July 7, 2014 ||: C (2nd inversion) | G- | F | F mi :|| She does that vamp a couple of times before 10:20 also. I'm not sure how significant the 2nd inv voicing is on that first C chord - it could be simplified to ||: C | G- | F | F mi :|| or ||: C | C7 | F | Bb7 :|| One that comes to mind is Mercy³ (close, at least). Also Sunny/Red Clay. Do you agree? During this vamp she simply plays left hand triads in bouncy quarter note rhythm (like Errol Garner 4 to the bar). Her right hand is also errol-garnerish when she does those octave closed voice blues licks with grace notes. She seems to like to do that a lot.
