  • A transcription of "We're Still Here/He's Alright" by Wycliffe Gordon, including all his solo parts and some of the band cues as well. I hope you enjoy, this was a fun one to transcribe!

    Crazy to see Chip McNeill as first tenor - I've been been to several jazz camps with him as one of the teachers and have played in the band he directed. Great guy, monster player.

      YES! So, augusta university hosts jazz bands and I just played in one of them. He directs the high school and uni band. I was in the middle school band and he came to play a tune for us with gum in his hand! I even got a chance to solo in front of him during the f blues section. The fact that he nonchalantly whips out licks is crazy.
