This piece is part of the collection Styles & Smiles, Vol. 1.
Staccatos fill the air with this 12-bar blues. Professional-quality 2-note shell voicings make the piece sound sophisticated and more difficult than it is.
Bumpy Bus Blues by James L. King III gives early intermediate students a bouncy, staccato-filled journey through the blues scale and professional “shell” chord voicings. Students are encouraged to improvise their own melodies after learning the original!

This rollicking barrelhouse boogie blues showstopper for late intermediate players is a huge success at recitals and other performances!
You won’t have to buy any bananas, you’ll GO bananas over this arrangement!
This early intermediate arrangement of the famous theme from Debussy’s Suite bergamasque is ideal for adult students, and is a great introduction to French Impressionism for everybody!
