Walkin’ uses a simple and effective pentatonic scale rif in the intro. It’s a great one to learn and practice with left hand syncopated on beat 2 and 4. It’s a good idea to learn to play this melody to practice jazz blues form. This version has a very soulful feel to it. Wynton Kelly’s light-hearted touch swings real hard in his piano solo. It’s a delight to the ears and a great source of thrilling jazz licks.
