![Take Five Neo-Soul Backing Track in E Minor (160 bpm)
Track starts at 0:59
Hey Guys,
it is very essential for the modern neo-soul/r&b guitarist to casually practice jazz phrasing and harmony and there is no other way but improvising over jazz standards. There are almost no modern versions of jazz standards out there. Nothing is more frustrating than practising uninspired. Have fun with the first neo-soul jazz standard version and make sure to stay up to date on the series.
