The idea is to narrow down your choice of notes by trying out the scale first, and then figuring out the part note-by-note first by trial and error for the first few notes, and then by listening out to the scale and the recorded part - you can roughly tell the 'distance' of subsequent notes from the first few notes.
To force you to practice this, I won't tab out this song, but I'll be happy to check your tabs if you leave them in the comments for this post.. here're the tabs for the Bb major scale to get you started:
---------------------
-------------8-10-11-
------7-8-10---------
-8-10----------------
---------------------
---------------------
-------------8-10-11-
------7-8-10---------
-8-10----------------
---------------------

Lastly, thanks to Ben Burnett for his help with this song.

Hey Kenny,
Nice done this site and you playing.
If i undertand it correctly than you're the guy with the two inbanez guitars and the rest are other people. Thanks for this practice, it helps a lot. And you're other vid's too. God bless.
