Hi, thanks for your kind words.

There's a thread from a few days ago here:

Easy to transcribe solos


where I mentioned some fairly easy miles davis solos to get started with transcribing. I used to trascribe a lot of these in the beginning, and it was really useful to get my listening chops together with these simple phrases and lines that Miles is playing.

Easy,

Janek
