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.
My workflow is sing it (as well as possible while listening a bunch of times), get it under my hands (while improving the singing), getting it on paper, then working up the speed. Not sure if that is the best way to do it, but memorisation is a nice side effect.
Nice work. What a great solo. We should play that this summer. I liked that you memorized it as well.
