 Miles Davis' solo on 'Freddie Freeloader' - transcribed for guitar
 Artist: Miles Davis
 Album: Kind of Blue
 Transcribed by knucmo 2005.
 Tempo = 128 bpm
 Key = Bb major
 
 This solo mixes mixolydian runs with bluesy and bebop licks,
 over a simple 32-bar progression. While not being Miles' most
 complex solo, it is a poignantly lyrical one that does not simply
 regurgitate every possible blues cliche possible. It's important
 to listen to the solo since a lot of the runs are played in
 triplets, but you'll play those naturally since jazz places emphasis
 on the 2nd and 4th beat of every bar rather than the 1st and 3rd.
 As noted above, this is my interpretation of the piece, and
 I have quite an idiosyncratic style so some of the runs may
 be otherwise difficult to play in the way in which they are
 tabulated here. If this is the case, you should probably
 find adapting them easy enough to do. I may attempt to
 notate and play both Trane and Cannonball's solos (which
 follow Miles' solo) one day, but don't be impatient!
