Four

This tune was written by Miles Davis, and recorded by his quintet in 1956. I was attending a (guitarist) Stephen King clinic, where he was talking about solo guitar, and that no one has tried to arrange bebop tunes. So here's my answer to the challenge.

dude.... that was simply bad-assed. if you arranged it, then it's even more incredible. put out a chord-melody book of miles tunes. i'll be first to buy a copy.... keep up the work... i'm totaly inspired to grab my archtop...

Thank you! Yes, I did arrange this.

I'm guessing you're a fan of Antonio Carlos Jobim. The visual and musical delivery on your vids shows a clear melodic style with no fanfare. Whether playing Joplin or Davis, I can't help but think of great '60s Brazilian Jazz when I listen to you.
