Publications Alfred Publishing Company, 2002 Warner Just rip off. but every tune is great. Warning: Many of the same songs that appear in Warner's Just Standards Real book. So I have paid twice for the same book. Extremly annoying. This is the better of the two books in my opinion, wherever there is no overlap, Jazz Real has slightly more interesting songs. Even though it extensively ...             Charlie Parker Omnibook: Transposed for B Flat Instruments2 reviews Alfred Publishing Company, 1981 Great book!

Gordon A.D.G. Productions, 2003 100 Ultimate Blues Riffs review I found that the riffs were not so "ultimate". Everything focuses on a standard blues scale and doesn't stretch out into anything richer, or more lyrical. If you are a beginning or intermediate saxophone student, there might be value here. However, if you have been playing professionally, or ...             Connecting Chords with Linear Harmony8 reviews Hal Leonard Corporation, 1996 One of the most FUNCTIONAL books on Improv EVER written ! + Solid be-bop, cheap publishing + Very Good Book + Missing Ingredient Found + Connecting Chords with Linear Harmony             Stan Getz & The Oscar Peterson Trio: The Silver Collection26 reviews The Oscar Peterson Trio Polygram Records, 1990 Rememberence of Swing Past + BRILLIANT COLLABORATION + lively, melodic, and interesting + top ten + An absolute joy             Charlie Parker Omnibook for E Flat Instruments : Recorded Solos11 reviews Alfred Publishing Company, 1978 BUY THIS BOOK + Great Buy for any sax player + A Must Have + Excellent for all instrumentalists + Seriously now, it's Bird             Vol. 57, Minor Blues IN All Keys For All Instruments (Book & CD Set)2 reviews Jamey Aebersold Play-A-Long Series Jamey Aebersold, 2000 Excellent learning tool - - Essential Jazz Form + This book CD set is great fun and you learn a lot.
