Jazz Classics for Solo Guitar by Robert B. Yelin
English | June 1, 2002 | ISBN: 0634029029 | 104 Pages | PDF | 33,2 MB

Full disclosure: I am a player of moderate ability, who is just getting into jazz. The book is as advertised: "…contains 35 professional chord/melody arrangements for solo guitar." Yes, these arrangements are written for a professional player; in other words, if you can easily articulate four or more different, difficult jazz chord changes per bar of music, this work is for you. The tablature appears accurate, and the chord harmonization is very tasty. Just be prepared for a very difficult slog if you are not prepared for this level of work. If you are, the music is quite beautiful and will inspire you to create your own reharmonizations of famous standards. Song choice here is excellent.
This collection includes Robert Yelin's excellent chord melody arrangements in standard notation and tablature for 35 all-time jazz favorites:
