Broken People
Basically, this solo idea is to create a melody using the
chord's notes and approach notes most of the time.
Over B6(9) he apllies "E Melodic Minor" scale.
The chords notes are painted red.

Souls in Chains

The chord notes are painted red again.

Resting Days
"Improvisation over chords" idea again. But this time we have a more static harmony.
We have two "II, V" cadences (over C and Bb, respectively) and another one (over Dmin)
to return to the first chords.
He applies a "B Altered Scale" over B7(# 5) chord and then two more "II, V" cadences
(over Bb and D, respectively) with "A Altered Scale" over the last chord.
