What the HECK is MODAL JAZZ?! // Miles Davis – Milestones // Lesson 4

This is the 4th lesson in a series looking at #milestones by #milesdavis as we unpack what #modaljazz is.

We are back to the beginning of the A section for his 2nd chorus. Also there is a RIDICULOUS sweep picking lick in this one so watch out!
