Basie Blues Changes
As the Blues form evolved during the Swing Era, the V-IV-I cadence in bars 9 through 12 was replaced by the ii-V-I Jazz Progression. The Count Basie Orchestra played many blues-oriented compositions during this time period. This progression was used in tunes such as their popular One O'Clock Jump
Below is an example of the Basie Blues Changes in the key of C.
