This music from Miles Davis has always seemed very enigmatic to me : the mood, the peculiar chord changes. I always wanted to try to play over it but never did. This is my take on it. That's not an easy tune for sure.
Hope you will like it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3QRUz5J2qfI
ps : posting it because the forums rules seem to allow jazz too!
However, Blues is not all about the notes you play, but much how you play those notes: The tone first! And the tone comes from the way your fingers touch the fingerboard and how your right hand hits the strings.
Remember most Blues player most often use the so called "hybrid picking": Freddy King, Albert King, Eric Clapton, Peter Green, Mike Bloomfield, just to name few.
Hope this helps

Hi buddy,
Thank you for your message. Blue in Green is not a blues. This is a jazz tune with some very interesting chord changes. You can't just play pentatonic there, you would miss a lot of chord tones and tensions displayed in the chord sheet.
Happy holidays!
Yep! I've noticed that... and I certainly won't miss any chord change indeed!
