Ceora: Lee Morgan solo from "Cornbread"

Nice little solo.  Lots of usable stuff here.  He plays with a good amount of tremolo, that I toned down.  Mostly because vibrato on guitar instantly makes you sound like you are at a blues festival, and I have a lot less sustain than a trumpet.  Choose this solo because I love his conviction to the notes he plays.... and I am slightly damaged after the Metheny solo :) (Note:  Using Sibelius now)

Old Folks: Pat Metheny solo from "Question and Answer"

This one was a challenge.  Probably could spend the next 6 months working on the nuances of his style.  Had a couple of flubs in this video, but managed to get through it.  May try to re-record this one.  Love those slippery chromatic Metheny lines.

Do it the Hard Way- Chet Baker scat solo from "It Could Happen to You

Ok. Totally loved this one. Great intervals for the bass. A good manageable length as well. I think I might do the whole recording...eventually....

Old Folks- Dave Holland solo from Question and Answer

Always liked this recording and finally found a solo that I might be able to play from it...
