Does anyone have the composer's (Willard Robison) chord changes to "Old
Folks" ? I think the first four bars went: I F A7 I Dm F7 I Bb Bbm I F D7?
I, but after that I'm stumped. More 'modern' substitute changes are I Em7b5
A+7 I Dm7 Db7 Cm7 F7 I BbMaj7 Eb7 I etc. but I like to follow Bobby
Hackett's dictum and use the chords the composer wrote whenever possible.
