Pat Metheny - The Longest Summer (Guitar Solo Cover) karaoke version

A simple way in
A cleaner backing track for singing, rehearsal, and covers when you want the song to stay familiar but the lead vocal to step aside.
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.
