Adapted by Corey Christiansen Spiral Book and 2 CDs! Why should horn players have all of the fun? Now, the number one selling Jazz Improvisation book in the world has a whole new look! Introducing a new version of Jamey's world famous Volume 1 - How To Play Jazz And Improvise, completely revised and specifically tailored for guitarists by jazz great Corey Christiansen! This edition is perfectly aligned with the original classic Sixth Edition that introduced tens of thousands of musicians to essential jazz fundamentals such as scale/chord relationships, articulation, note choices, etc. In this special version, however, the text has been carefully edited and rewritten to speak specifically to guitarists. Even non-reading players will benefit, because we've also included TAB and FRAMES for each of the musical examples. The piano track from the original CD has been replaced by Corey on guitar, and many of the chords and voicings are explained and notated in the book. The play-a-long/demonstration CD includes special stereo separation, allowing the guitar on each track to be eliminated so that the student can play along with bassist Rufus Reid and drummer Jonathan Higgins. A second CD includes the same play-a-long tracks as the first CD, but at slower practice tempos. This high-quality book is spiral bound, designed to lie flat for ease of use. A complete package! Includes: Scales/Chords Developing Creativity Improv Fundamentals 12 Blues Scales Bebop Scales Pentatonic Scales Time and Feel Melodic Development II/V7s Related Scales and Modes Practical Exercises Patterns and Licks Dominant 7th Tree of Scale Choices Nomenclature Chromaticism Scale Syllabus and more! NOTE FROM JAMEY When I first heard So What on the Kind of Blue record I didn?t think anything was happening because I was used to hearing changes flying by and this seemed so tame by comparison. I quickly fell in love with Kind of Blue and of course we at IU started experimenting with modal tunes and trying to keep our place in those many 8 bar phrases that seemed at times to make me feel like I was in the middle of a desert and couldn?t see for the life of me the beginning of the next 8 bar phrase.

Hailed as one of the greatest hard rock songs of all time, this 1987 hit from Guns N' Roses features familiar melodies and a relentless drive throughout. Paul's hard-hitting arrangement uses the saxes on the lead and brass on the signature riffs, along with terrific interplay within the ensemble. Rock the stage with this one!

Originally recorded by The Meters in 1969 Cissy Strut has since become a model for playing funk recorded by both jazz and rock artists. The signature bass line is played by trombones tenors and baritone sax and the entire band joins in with the catchy riffs. There are short solo breaks for the bass and drums along with solo or soli spots for saxes and trumpets.

Includes a book with transcriptions and analysis of 13 great dummers, including Grady Tate, Al Foster, Billy Hart, Ben Riley, Billy Higgins, Louis Hayes, Roy McCurdy, Bill Goodwin, Ed Soph and many more. The tracks cover a variety of grooves, styles, and tempos. No other method on the market gives you the work of so many outstanding (and legendary) jazz drummers. Special stereo separation on the CD allows you to remove the drummer and play along with Tenor, Bass, and Piano by simply turning your stereo's balance control to one side! / Méthode en anglais / Méthode / Batterie
