Mine is The Quintessence. And I usually do sing the whole thing, which is why I usually listen to it alone.

If I've ever transcribed an entire solo, George Harrison probably played it.
Bits and pieces for me.
I've learned a lot of tunes from charts. But does that really mean I didn't use my ears?
What about the choices for voicings, voice leading, chord patterns/substitutions, countermelodies, soloing and rhythms for comping? None of that was in the chart.

ATM I am listening to a podcast series by an Italian saxophonist living in Australia, Mirko Guerrini, called Jazz Transcription Clinic. In each of the ca. one hour long series Guerrini discusses with a fellow musicians their ways of and views of transcribing. I am only at Episode 4 but very interesting insights so far.

I like a story my guitar teacher told me a few years ago.
He and one of the local phenoms were sharing a house with some other musicians. My teacher went out just as the phenom sat down to transcribe some music. He returned a couple of hours later. The phenom had transcribed pages and pages of music. In pen.

I think that transcribing is very important as this way you truly know what's happening in the music and you can use this on your own music.
Over the last year or so I've been transcribing a lot of Ben Monder solo guitar stuff. Through transcribing I've come to know some of his 'secrets' and I can use them in my own playing.
Of course, Ben bring Ben, some of his voicings and progressions leave me utterly confused...but I'll get there

I’m trying to transcribe some Chet Baker solos. Slow going.

It’s slow until it’s not. Just like reading, 5 minutes a day and in a year you’ll be walking. Originally Posted by Bach5G
