The most common way musicians get this music for free is through the Real Book. "Flamenco Sketches" is a jazz standard and appears in most legal fake books.

Method A: The "Real Book" Search The melody to "Flamenco Sketches" is often incorrectly listed or simply shown as a set of scales.

Method B: IMSLP (Public Domain Resources) While Miles Davis's recordings are copyrighted, you can check IMSLP.org for any scores that may have entered the public domain in your country.


"Flamenco Sketches" has since become a beloved classic, celebrated for its mesmerizing blend of jazz and flamenco. The piece continues to inspire musicians and music lovers alike, a testament to Miles Davis's boundless creativity and innovative spirit.

“Flamenco Sketches” is the closing track on Miles Davis’s 1959 album Kind of Blue, the best-selling jazz album of all time. Unlike the hard-bop conventions of the era, the piece is built on modal harmony—a radical departure from complex chord progressions.

If you want the actual notes Miles played, free PDFs found online are often inaccurate. For a proper education, it is highly recommended to use paid, authorized scores.

  1. My longtime favourite is Solomon’s Boneyard (see also: Solomon’s Keep!). I’ll have to check out Eternium because it might be similar — you pick a wizard that controls a specific element (magic balls, lightning, fire, ice) and see how long you can last a graveyard shift. I guess it’s kind of a rogue-lite where you earn upgrades within each game but also persistent upgrades, like magic rings and additional unlockable characters (steam, storm, fireballs, balls of lightning, balls of ice, firestorm… awesome combos of the original elements.)

    I also used to enjoy Tilt to Live, which I think is offline too.

    Donut county is a fun little puzzle game, and Lux Touch is mobile risk that’s played quickly.

  2. Thank you great list. My job entails hours a day in an area with no internet and with very little to do. Lol hours of bordom, minutes of stress seconds of shear terror !

    Some of these are going to be life savers!

  3. I’ve put hours upon hours into Fallout Shelter. You build a Fallout Shelter and add rooms to it Electric, Water, Food, and if you add a man and woman to a room they will have a baby. The baby will grow up and you can add them to an area to help with the shelter. Outsiders come and attack if you take them out sometimes you can loot the body to get new weapons. There’s a lot more to it but thats kind of sums it up. Thank you for the list I’m down loading some now!

    1. Oh man, I spent so much time on Fallout Shelter a few years ago! Very fun game — thanks for the reminder!
