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. When I began teaching privately for the first time in Seymour, Indiana I had a girl flute student who really had a great sound. One day I asked her to improvise on a D- Dorian scale and off she went. I could tell she was playing what she heard in her mind and I was so surprised. It really sounded natural. So, I asked other students to play on a Dorian scale and they did fine. That's how I got started teaching improv. I think others at the time were using the blues as a vehicle but the students I was working with knew nothing about the blues but they could keep their place in the 4 and 8 bar phrases so I went ahead later and used that modal approach on my Volume 1 play-along . . . and the rest is history."

This is your chance! Take the techniques and theory you've learned from Volumes 1, 21, 24, 2 & 3 and apply them to a real playing situation on comfortable tunes. A great volume to use when making the transition from learning scales and chords to actually playing melodies and chord progressions. Eight songs written in the style of the great standards. Book contains suggestions for soloing on each tune and a Scale Syllabus.

Six must-know bebop tunes and two essential standards you'll play on every gig. Tempos are comfortable. Bebop is the ultimate jazz language builder and most of today's greatest players like Terrence Blanchard, Jerry Bergonzi, Chick Corea, Freddie Hubbard, and the Brecker's have all used it as a foundation for building their unique styles. It's no doubt they know all the tunes on this set inside and out. The heart of the jazz sound! Rhythm Section: Dan Haerle (p); Todd Coolman (b); Steve Davis (d). Titles: Groovin' High * I'll Remember April * A Night in Tunisia * Bluesette * West Coast Blues * High Fly * All the Things You Are * An Afternoon in Paris.

The tempos are moderate, but the real work-out begins when you start going through the various "un-common" keys. This challenging set is for anyone ready to put themselves through the paces - the right way!

The Dominant Seventh is possibly the most substituted, colored, and altered sound in modern music. Its flexibility and distinctive nature made it a favorite of composers throughout the 20th century and allowed it to dominate Blues and Rock And Roll. This unique Play-A-Long explores the very nature of the Dom. 7th sound and describes different ways jazz masters have used it for color and texture. Many written patterns will open your ears and extended tracks on 2 CDs will allow you to practice licks and patterns, refine your technique and reaction time, and give you the skills to navigate Dominant 7ths with confidence.
