| "Getting Into The Groove" by Andrew Gordon, has been specially created for the many
instrumentalists that need a practical hands on approach to improvising or
playing a solo over chord changes. It is like having a "backing band in
your home" to practice with and has 19 solos in the styles of Blues,
Jazz, Rock, Gospel and Rhythm & Blues. The two cassettes that come with
the book have separate functions. Tape 1 consists of the rhythm backing tracks
of piano, organ bass and drums (the soloist can solo over the rhythm tracks)
while tape 2 has the solo recorded along with the rhythm tracks for reference.
Each of the 19 grooves are approximately 3 minutes in length, giving the
musician ample time to try out improvisational ideas. The book contains all the
solos notated out with the chord progressions. The product is available in 3
keys: "C" for concert instruments, "Bb" for
tenor sax, trumpet etc. and "Eb" for alto sax etc.
