I batted out a transcription this morning for my class this afternoon
and thought I'd share it. It's from the Herb Ellis and Joe Pass album
"Two for the Road" - the slower version of Cherokee. I just did the
opening chorus and haven't proofed it much, so I'm sure there is room
for improvement if someone wants to make suggestions. Enjoy.

Thanks, son! BTW, I found some mistakes already and updated the file,
but don't print yet!

So would it kill you to read a book from time to time?

You can compare to the hand-written version I did as a teenager:

Holy guacamole ... right on. Thank you Dan and Clay. Been lookin' at
Joe Pass lines these past two weeks to augment my studies. Great stuff
and in sync to my recent activity. Thank you.

Although Scribd does a funny rendering thing with my computer with the
noteheads. I believe it reads ok on other people machines tho!

Hey I have that problem as well! Yours looks just as weird. Did you ever
check my files?

Some of the noteheads are administering the "Parthian shot" over their
shoulders on my computer.

Yes it愀 funny, some work and some don愒 - some show a rectangular box
in stead of the notes for a second and then look as they愉e supposed to
but some stay that way. Boxes in stead of notes.

Also, they扉e deleted the "groups" apparently ... and sometimes you look
for something and it doesn愒 show and then suddnly it愀 there after all.
