Partial transcription of Milt Jackson’s vibe solo on the Modern Jazz Quartet tune “Blues in C Minor”.
Really great minor blues vocabulary here. He had some incredibly hip ways of bending the time within phrases that made it difficult to notate the exact rhythms. Definitely check out the recording to catch the laid-back rubato-esque feel.
