So What Guitar Lesson (Miles Davis)

VIDEO DETAILS
I just thought this riff, if you wanna call it that, is so hip, or cool: it comes from Miles' Kind of Blue, which is the height of 'Cool Jazz'. It also includes a further theme-development section, of course, (not attempted here) but just this theme is so.... cool. Well, this is not a performance video, just simply trying to show the little steps that create that famous catchy theme. And if anyone says to me: hey, that's not exactly how they do it on the record, I'll just look back, and say..... so what? ! (If you wanna hear my whole whack at the song per se, check out the audio stuff on my site.)

Hey Martin,

Always loved this song, thanks for showing me how to play it. I bought Kind of Blue second-hand on vinyl in the late eighties at the Hyde Park hotel. It was a gig the Perth Jazz Society put on... can't remember who was playing but I do remember a cool character selling records at the back. It's still one of my favourite albums.
