Couldn't be more awesome! Love the scrolling. Perfect song for intermediate players. Not too fast.

[Cheesehuggerz]

love the line he plays at 2:02 over the minor 2-5-1

[ok-oiuz]

Is it just me or does it sound like Night In Tunisia at 3:14

To my ears, measure 41, 4th note is a B natural. Nice transcription though!

[jakefalasca]

This head and solo belong among the most studied?

Hey if anyone can tell me the app used for synching/scrolling the notes to the audio I'd appreciate knowing.thx

[CorentinGagnot]

There are some critical errors in there tho

[James-vkv]

Yes nice try..listen closer next time..also adding a glossary of inflections for Dexter is important..like bends and vibrato. Yes the player can listen for these but then hes doing the job for you..For starters, there's a note leasing to note 1 of the solo (m15-16) and note 3 is wrong (C# not D!)...2 out of the first 3 wrong? I heard these after 2 or 3 passes..Sloppy. Obviously to create the solo is so infinitely more creative than documenting it. So get it right for posterity- especially this solo...Dexter is the man..

bar 55 should be a B natural. GET IT RIGHT
