Coltrane Changes Demystified: Countdown Chord Melody

I recently posted a chord melody arrangement and harmonic analysis of "Tune Up" by Miles Davis. Well it so happens that John Coltrane was the saxophonist on the recording  of that tune. About a decade later he took this interesting 16 measure progression and re-wrote it using a harmonic innovation which has since become known among jazz musicians as "Coltrane Changes".
In this lesson not only do I show you the procedure Coltrane employed to write "Countdown", but I also teach you a chord melody arrangement of it!
