One of my favorite albums, and first big jazz guitar influences, around the same time as Benson "body talk" and Martino "consciousness" ! Nice job, you put the work in!

Hi Blake I use to listen to that album when it first came out Joe was truly one of the best chord melody guitarists when it came to Jazz. You did a great job must have taken some time to transcribe it you must have a set of ears on you!!!

@OnSugarHill Thank you kindly, I transcribed it from the album "Portraits of Duke Ellington" put out in 1974. You can find the record on Amazon and most other sites.

Very nice man. Is this written out somewhere or did you transcribe it yourself? I'm trying to find Joe's recording of this chord melody.
