Joshua Redman e Pat Metheny Turnaround

It seems impossible to me that it's not understood: it's a Blues progression.

Sure, with dominant sevenths, diminished chords, sixths, fifths, augmented fourths—like they were a bra size.
But it's Blues!
12 bars, 3 chords.
Like "Il tempo di morire" by the great composer from Poggio Bustone.

Motociclettaaa / stu-strabodá / dieci accapí / stu-stu strabodá...

"Hey Chuck, it’s your cousin Barry: Barry Berry!
Do you remember that sound you were looking for?"
