Kenny Burrell is one of the groovyest players around. His playing is very “fundamental” and clear and thus ideal material to learn from. Less is more said Miles Davis.

The chord C7sharp9 is used instead of C7/9/13.  Note that this is not the case throughout the whole song, somewhere in one third of Kenny’s solo he uses more notes than the blues scale alone, using notes of the mixolydian mode(s). His comping changes accordingly using 9 chords and 13 chords. 

Here are the changes:
