Tell me what tune you are working on right now! I'm learning some nice standards for a gig coming up. Estrellita Ms Otis Regrets (courtesy of @Viktor Houf) Thou Swell Willow Weep For Me. When I'm bulk learning tunes for a gig I try to spend each day going through a new one till I sort of know it. Once I have my set of tunes "buskable", I listen to different versions and mess around with them trying to find my own way of laying the melody. I always try to work out the harmony by ear but then check it against the ireal book changes to see if how I'm doing/if there are different ways of playing the chords. Which tunes are you working on?
