Jelly Roll Backing Track Jazz - Here the instrumentalist will be able to apply his knowledge on this theme by Charles Mingus.

"Jelly Roll" is a 1959 composition by Charles Mingus that is a tribute to the New Orleans jazz pianist, Jelly Roll Morton. Although at first it looks like a blues, its harmony presents a different blues movement from its seventh bar that instead of returning its possible tonic rises to its perfect fourth, from there on starts the traditional progression I, VI, II , V revealing that "Ab" is your actual key.

This theme can be found in "Real Book vol.1" on page 243 and in "Real Book vol.6" on page 226.

This backing track consists of drums, bass and piano. The tempo is at 132bpm.
