Transcription Re-do of earlier Transcription When the Saints - Blue Mitchell and Waltz for Ruth- Charlie Haden

So in my January attempt I didn't get it up to speed so this is what I focused on. Recording is a little unbalanced. The Charlie Haden solo came back very quickly. I will memorize it eventually. Still trying to incorporate the melodic approach he has and tone in my own attempts. I will just post videos.

  1. Yea! Sounds great! I found it a lot easier as well, to re-visit solos. Beard is also looking pretty stylish! Nice Job! (on the beard and solos that is)

There will never be another you: Chet Baker Solo

I have come to the conclusion that I stray too far from the melody when soloing.  This is a perfect example of melodic development and embellishment.  Very short, but great little solo.  Didn't put any great effort into the notation...  but oh well.

Love this one but still a work in progress. 80% speed...barely. A lifetime of work to take from this. I really need to go back and mine both Dexter solos for vocabulary....

May Madness: Like Someone In Love etc

 So this month was about working on taking some licks around the cycle and playing through Like someone in love as well as this short and sweet solo by John Patitucci on Like Someone in Love. I had some struggles notating the last 4 bars but really got a lot out of the solo especially the fast double time lick over Dmin7/ G7#5 at first ending. That is one of the licks I took around the cycle. Also kept playing previous solos from this year and worked on blues ideas. I am just posting the solo for now.
