Stan,
Why aren't you notating these in 4/4 with eighth notes? Benny isn't playing "Let's Dance" in compound meter.
More importantly though, if you want to really get something out of these transcriptions, you need to be playing along with them, absorbing the masters' style. I always learn solos by ear, playing along with the recording, before I begin to notate anything. Then when i do write out the solo, I also transcribe the melody and chords.
You'd get much more out of transcribing something this way--even if it's something super easy, like a simple melody--than by just figuring out what notes someone's playing.
For what it's worth, I also think transcription books are a waste of money.
