Jamey Aebersold Jazz, Volume 7 (Miles Davis)

Here are eight jazz originals written by Miles Davis, many recorded twice with one slower track for easier learning, and another track at a common performance tempo. This is a unique way to learn eight of the most popular songs of the 50s. Most are considered jazz classics because most jazz musicians have learned them, and all are interesting vehicles for improvising. The interesting chord changes, altered bridges, and logical melodies have been quoted in many compositions throughout the music world. Here is a way to gain an insight into early Miles and gain an understanding of the transitional bop to post-bop period. Titles include: Four; Solar; Tune Up; Dig; Vierd Blues; Milestones; The Theme and Serpents' Tongue. Level: Intermediate/Advanced.
