@ChibiVocaloidxPika You know the progression right? It's Bb7 Eb7 F7 Eb7 Ab7. Trane and Cannonball's solos are a bit dense and complex but Miles solo is a great starting point if you need some food for a solo. It's relatively simple but as usual for Miles, exztremely ingenious and hip. His lines over the V IV sections are just straight mixolydian and mostly root 9th maj 3rds and they sound so hip.

This is one of the first piano solos I transcribed for guitar, so many great licks in there. Wynton was the swingingest ever!
