We have had many discussions on note choice in soloing - perhaps we could discuss another part of the equation, which is phrasing. How do you work on phrasing, and which players do you admire for this. I think it is the first lick that EC plays in White Room between the vocals - the note choice is ok but the inflections he brings to it make it really sing. His tone on that track is also amazing.
Miles' solo on 'So What' (Kind of Blue - an album everyone really should own) is also built from some incredible phrasing. Cannonball Aderley's solo is also very sweet on that take.
