Today let's tackle a chord melody arrangement of the Duke Ellington/Billy Strayhorn classic Satin Doll

Download the tabs and watch the lesson here.

We'll start out with a play-along with a backing track and tabs before we dive into the lesson. This is a great way to look at how we can navigate melodies inside ii V I progressions. While this can seem like a daunting arrangement, if you take it in small pieces you'll be swinging through in no time.

In the lesson I'll walk you through the fingering challenges and how to effectively practice the tune.

If this is past your skill level you can strum along with the basic chords to the tune in our previous lesson
