Pat Metheny - The Longest Summer (Guitar Solo Cover)

About this version

Some drum parts make sense on paper and still feel odd under your hands. This version is for closing that gap a bit faster.

Useful for

working on groove and feel

Useful for

cleaning up fills and transitions

Useful for

repeating the section before the section that usually goes wrong

A simple way in

A version for hearing the groove, fills, and transitions more clearly while keeping the shape of the original song intact.

Start with the tricky section, not the whole song. A few good repetitions usually tell you more than one rushed pass from top to bottom.

Once it feels settled, go back to the full arrangement and check whether it still holds together. That is usually where the real answer is.

Notes

Probably my favorite solo by Pat Metheny. A fantastic album too! It's been a long while since i transcribed any solo (of any kind or genre) and it's also been a while since a posted a solo cover video here on my youtube channel so i figured i'd give it a shot on this one. To be honest, this wasn't the tightest of all the takes i did but overrall it was the most consistent one, anway, hope you enjoy it! C&C always welcome. Recorded with Line 6 POD HD Pro X.
