The end of the A section is difficult - slowing down the backing track will help.

The solo is largely a steal from an Ella Fitzgerald scat recording. I haven't tabbed it yet as it's too much work.

The backing track is from a midi (author unknown), which I found on the Internet. I then dropped the piano track (except at the start/end) and added some rythym guitar to fill it out a bit.
