They offer the opportunity to practice soloing with a band at your convenience witha collection of solos written over a series of different chord changes and styles such as straight-ahead jazz, funk, swing, R&B, Latin, blues and more. Giving more than just chord scales, each book gives an actual idea to base your solos around. Each track on the CD has a short version to match the length of the transcribed solo (as played by Eric) and a long version (without the solo) to improvise over.
