One of my favorite tunes to play. In this lesson, I take an in depth look at the tune from beginning to end discuss topics like the tritone substitution, the I diminished chord, chromaticism, chord scale relationships and much more. I also have notated many comping ideas in the included 10 page PDF. The PDF is full of linear and chordal examples in notation and tab. A great lesson.
