I saw the discussion, but I doubt there are rhythm changes in every key. Maybe some vindictive guitarist has written a rhythm changes in E or A, but they would be loathed by all other sentient beings and so wouldn't have a gig. To find them, and their recordings, I'd suggest street-dweller types ;) In all seriousness, I'll post on twitter to see if you can't get some more suggestions. Good luck! Thanks, Camden.

What a bonkers sounding album! Harpsichord, bass, vibes and sleigh bells! Beautiful sounding recording too. The Blues in H is a major blues. Not many blues tunes in B major around, so thanks for that! Thanks for your comment, Bruce. What a bonkers sounding album! Harpsichord, bass, vibes and sleigh bells! Beautiful sounding recording too.

Although I cannot positively say at this point if they are major or minor but the melodies are based on the minor blues scale it seems.

There's a groovy little minor blues shuffle by Freddie Hubbard called "Down Under" that's in F# minor if you want another slightly obscure key... plus it's a 12-bar sequence, unlike "I Put a Spell on You". Can be found on an Art Blakey album called "Mosaic". Jon Hi Mike,
