 Jazz Solos Hey everyone Does anyone have any suggestions for guitar solos over blues changes that really get into some bop chops for transcribing. I have done my fair share of transcribing, and I have only done a couple of blues (Bennys back - Benson, Relaxin at the Carmillo - Kessel, Cousin Mary - Coltrane, When will the blues leave - Hekselman) but I feel like doing some more...my blues blowing isnt the best. Thanks in advance Aaron

| I get a sh*tload of mileage out of licks I ripped off from Woody Shaw's live version of "Bag's Groove". YouTube - Dexter Gordon-Woody Shaw-Milt Jackson Look at about 1:45. If you do transcribe this, let's compare notes. Another great one to do - but which is above my head for now - is the amazing solo that Wes Montgomery does in "No Blues" on the Smokin' At The Halfnote CD (which is a must-have). He does about 6 or 8 choruses and there is some really burnin' material in there. |

| Joe & Kenny It's hard to pick just one from either Joe Pass or Kenny Burrell...maybe Blues for O.P. off Joe's Virtuoso 2, and Saturday Night Blues from Midnight Blue, there's quite a spectrum. Joe is almost baroque, while Kenny is far more bluesy and funky. Enjoy (and don't forget to share)! Joe Pass ? Blues for O.P ? Discover music at Last.fm. YouTube - Kenny Burrell - Saturday Night Blues |

| Kenny Burrells Midnight Blue was the first jazz album I bought...in 1966 in California...was in the US Navy for 6 years... I have it almost worn out...but the riffs I coped from him still do me good.. Lots of others to be sure but this would be a good starting one In my opinoin.. time on the instrument...pierre |
