概要
“502” Blues and Jimmy Rowles (117)
“502 Blues (Drinkin’ and Drivin’)” is a composition by pianist and songwriter Jimmy Rowles that stands as a clever example of his harmonic imagination. Despite the title, the piece is not a traditional blues. Instead, it unfolds as a 32-bar tune in 3/4 with subtle structural variations and a melody that feels almost folk-like in its directness while still containing angular leaps. One of the tune’s most striking features is its opening progression—Am7 moving unexpectedly to DbMaj7(#5)—a colorful harmonic shift that immediately signals Rowles’s distinctive approach to harmony.
The composition is most widely known through the recording by Wayne Shorter on the album Adam's Apple (1967), where Shorter’s lyrical tenor saxophone interpretation highlights the tune’s melodic clarity and unusual harmonic movement. Rowles, long respected as a “musician’s musician,” brought a deep harmonic sensitivity to both his playing and composing, and “502 Blues” remains one of his most enduring contributions to the jazz repertoire.
