    I think if you want to play jazz blues, this is the only solo you need. Sonny nails the changes, has amazing control of rhythm and articulation, has the nice swing era thing with beautiful vibrato, and then of course the straight bebop double time chops. Even a couple modern sounding side slipping licks. Really a master class all the way around.

    BreckerFan, thanks! Would it be too much to ask if you could share your transcription? I haven’t been able to find one in concert pitch online, it would be really helpful to learn this solo.

    Thanks!
