Its been 30 years since I played this solo. And i still love it! Its not every day you get to play with Art Blakey, McCoy Tyner and Art Davis! This knockout blues improvisation of Sonny Stitt is a scorcher!

The phrasing, language, lines, rhythm, subscription to the beat are all tremendous. The 16th notes are like a semi- automatic! Blues language mixed with bop and beyond! The diminished solo is featured as well. The record this Blues comes from is called ‘A Jazz Message’ led by legendary drummer Art Blakey with McCoy Tyner on piano and Art Davis on Bass In this first video of 2 parts I wanted to show the solo played without music as I believe it is important first to learn solos by ear before notation and analysis- Just as an infant learns to speak from its parents-not a book reading! Jazz/ Music for me is a language! The pdf however is available (for those who want to cheat) for free download here: (look for the Blue ART BLAKEY album cover ‘A Jazz message’) In part 2 of this video there will be a detailed analysis of the solo.
