Transcriptions

Whenever I’m working on a tune, I listen to how the pros handle the changes and follow along with transcriptions of the solos. Here are the solos I’m been doing that with this past week for the new songs we’re working on. Especially check out the Lover Man solos to see examples of how to play outside.
