I think I’ll leave this transcription now.  If anything, there are a few lines played farther on that have caught my ear that i may work out in isolation.  This solo IMHO develops well.  I find this entire solo quite memorable.   Be a great ensemble to catch performing live im sure!

Here’s the first chorus of the solo. 
Lovely bebop phrases.  Reminds me of Red Garland.
That’s my humble guitar player perspective!

United Blues is a great track found on the “Stay Right With It” album of Australian Bass player, Brendan Clarke. 
It is a F blues.  I believe this is a Ron Carter composition.  

The track swings with great energy.  In particular i really love the piano improv and thought i’d would be great to transcribe a few choruses.   The pianist is John Harkins.  Wonderful playing.  Here’s the head.
