The best way to learn music is to play music! There is something for everyone in these play-a-long book and CD sets, whether you are a young, aspiring player, teacher, professional, or retired professional. Today, Jamey's play-a-longs are used and enjoyed by all segments of the musical spectrum from elementary students to professional jazz musicians, such as Randy Brecker, James Moody, and Phil Woods. No longer are scales, exercises and arpeggios simply dull, single-lined strings of notes with no harmonic foundations. Melodies suddenly come alive and are easier to learn when some of the best rhythm sections in the business back you up. You can actually practice with such well-known jazz personalities as: DAVE BRUBECK MULGREW MILLER VIC JURIS ED SOPH JAMES WILLIAMS DAVID HAZELTINE JAMEY AEBERSOLD JOHN GOLDSBY CHRISTIAN McBRIDE JEFF TAIN WATTS ANDY LAVERNE BILLY HART ADAM NUSSBAUM KENNY WERNER RAY DRUMMOND DAVE STRYKER KENNY BARRON RUFUS REID JOHN RILEY BEN RILEY LYNNE ARRIALE MARK LEVINE CEDAR WALTON STEVE ALLEE TODD COOLMAN JOEY DEFRANCESCO LYNN SEATON DAVE SAMUELS RON CARTER AL FOSTER GRADY TATE HAL GALPER DAN HAERLE BOB CRANSHAW JOHN PATITUCCI RICHIE BIERACH GEORGE CABLES BILLY HIGGINS STEVE DAVIS JIMMY RANEY

MINOR BLUES IN ALL KEYS
VOLUME 61
All Levels. Here we have a typical minor blues in all 12 keys. Few chord progressions offer the freedom and variety of expression found in the minor blues progression. Great players have all approached this chord progression in a variety of ways. Often, they attack each chord vertically in its pure form or play horizontally across the progression, usually with a blues or minor pentatonic scale. Some take all or part of the changes harmonically out.

What do you play when you have one chord for 8 or 16 bars? The Modal Jazz era presented new challenges for improvisors, spawing a fruitful period rich in new concepts and harmonic exploration. This in-depth study starts with the basics and progresses systematically to more advanced techniques. Special workout tracks work equally well for novice or pro.

For all instrumentalists wishing to work on their time and sharpen their harmonic awareness. The best way to develop a sense of good time and playing in the groove is to play with the best musicians available, and they come no better than drummer Adam Nussbaum and bassist Jay Anderson. This 4-CD set includes 15 play along tracks of various tempos and styles, all based on the changes to well-known standards. Each CD has a different mix:
CD #1 is a split track with bass on one channel and drums on the other. CD #2 is Bass only on both channels. CD #3 is Drums only on both channels. CD #4 is Piano on both channels, bass on the left, drums on the right. Bassists will love playing with the drum-only CD; drummers will love playing with the bass-only CD; Pianists will enjoy soloing and comping with any of the first three mixes; and horn players will enjoy playing with any of the 4 CDs. Gerry Mulligan, Sonny Rollins, and others led pianoless groups for a different, harmonically freer sound. Everyone will gain better ears and harmonic awareness by not being able to rely on the piano. You can use these CDs for jam sessions with various instrumentation. Book contains melodies and chord changes transposed for all instruments. The most versatile playa-long available!
Jameys play-a-longs are fabulous. When I was a high school student growing up in a small town far away from any professional jazz artists to play with, Nothin But Blues and the first Charlie Parker volume gave me a foundation that has been invaluable. The next best thing to playing live with the best musicians on the planet. Thanks, Jamey! Harry Pickens, Pianist & Motivational Speaker

BLUES
BLUES
The Blues is the essence or soul of jazz and other American popular music forms. Gigging players realize that familiarity with The Blues and its various forms is essential to crossing over from one musical style to the next - a root language, so to speak. These Play-A-Longs offer unique at home opportunities for the improvising musician to become fluent in this musical language. Choose from the wide range of Blues varieties found in Volume 2, Nothin But Blues, and Volume 88 Millennium Blues, or the tough transitional challenges presented in Volume 42, Blues In All Keys.

VOLUME 42
Beginning/Intermediate. The Blues have had the very essence of the jazz sound since the 1920s. Master the sound and feel of the Blues and you will play other jazz tunes that will inspire listeners. A natural follow-up to Vol. 1 or Vol. 21. Various keys with a variety of moods from slow to rock. Chords and scales are written in the staff for each track. SUGGESTED PREREQUISITES: Volume 24, 1, 21

Mr. Super Hip, Horizontal (C Blues), 6/8 Modal Blues, Slow Blues In G, Slow Blues In C, Fast Blues In F, Fast Blues In Bb, Minor Blues In C, Bird Blues, Home Stretch, Long-Meter Jazz/Rock
All Levels. A great way to expand your blues playing in every key! Try playing some of the tougher keys without looking at the music and see just how fast your ear takes over. Youll find yourself gaining confidence very quickly and greatly improving your soloing. Charlie Parker learned the Blues in all 12 keys before he learned anything else. Transposed for all instruments. Each key contains a different blues melody and two compatible chord/scale progressions. RELATED PUBLICATIONS: Transcribed Bass Lines from Volume 42 and Lennie Niehaus Plays The Blues
MINOR BLUES IN ALL KEYS
All Levels. Here we have a typical minor blues in all 12 keys. Few chord progressions offer the freedom and variety of expression found in the minor blues progression. Great players have all approached this chord progression in a variety of ways. Often, they attack each chord vertically in its pure form or play horizontally across the progression, usually with a blues or minor pentatonic scale. Some take all or part of the changes harmonically out.

BEBOP
In the 1940s, a young generation of musicians created an all-new adventurous new style, BeBop, that would influence all jazz that came after. Faster tempos, energetic lines, and sophisticated harmonies were the key contributions, but Bop also remained true to the essence of the swing and blues that preceded it. These Play-A-Longs offer improvising musicians the chance to learn the Bop repertoire while being accompanied by legendary musicians like Kenny Barron and Ron Carter. This is the best of Bop - as real as it gets!

LATIN
Jazz musicians have experimented with Latin music styles since the early part of the 20th Century, but it really began permeating the popular musical language in the 1940s when Boppers such as Dizzy Gillespie began sharing the stage with Latin bands and adding Latin elements to their own music. In the late 1950s, Stan Getz forever linked jazz and latin music with his famous Bossa Nova recordings. Every gigging musician knows that you cant get through a set without at least a couple of Latin numbers! Here, you can enjoy a wide variety of Latin styles, including the laid-back Bossas of Vol. 98, Antonio Carlos Jobim; the slightly more energetic jazz-influenced Vol. 31, Bossa Novas; the hi-energy Vol. 96, Latin Quarter; and the modern electronic Volume 124, Brazilian Jazz.

FUSION
FUSION
As its name implies, Fusion is the fusing together of at least two styles of music. In the case of jazz, it usually means fusing with latin and/or rock, and nearly always employs the use of electronic instruments. Like other styles, it has its high energy components and its more soothing components (often called Smooth jazz.) Here, we present the music of some of the genres leading artists, including Volume 83, The Brecker Brothers, and Volume 103, David Sanborn.

VOCAL
While most of the Standard Play-A-Longs previously listed do include written lyrics, they are recorded in traditional horn keys and are not always compatible with the range of most female singers (although most work nicely with typical male ranges.) Therefore, we have included in our catalog three outstanding Sing-A-Longs, carefully recorded with the jazz singer in mind. Here you will find a wealth of great standards every singer should know.
IT HAD TO BE YOU STANDARDS IN SINGERS KEYS
EMBRACEABLE YOU BALLADS FOR ALL SINGERS
VOLUME 117
COLE PORTER FOR SINGERS
Intermediate/Advanced. 24 standards in FEMALE keys. Includes intros to help orient the singer to the melody. Pianists can eliminate the piano track and play/sing along with just bass and drums. Includes lyrics over the melody notes, piano cues, and chord changes.
It Had To Be You, Misty, Time After Time, Stars Fell On Alabama, September In The Rain, I Cover The Waterfront, Days Of Wine And Roses, Stardust, But Not For Me, Thats All, Summertime, My Funny Valentine, I Thought About You, Body And Soul, Alone Together, Skylark, Bye Bye Blackbird, You Go To My Head, East Of The Sun, Whats New, What Is This Thing Called Love, Fools Rush In, A Foggy Day, Love For Sale
Intermediate/Advanced. 2 CDs and book. Pianist Steve Allee creates an intimate setting with singer-sensitive solo piano accompaniment for 12 of the greatest ballads ever written. Each song is recorded in 2 keys - one for lower voices and one for higher voices - ensuring all singers, men and women, can find the best key for their voice! Selected songs are presented in two tempos (ballad and medium tempo) on separate tracks, adding excitement and variety to these time honored classics. Melody, lyrics, and chord changes are clearly presented in the book and the pianist on the CD provides singerfriendly intros and voice leading, making it easier to find the melody. Note: The book contains C parts only - no transposed parts for Bb, Eb, or bass clef instruments, but horn players will love playing and practicing in singers keys.
Some of the greatest songs from the Golden Era, each is performed in two keys (one CD is for high voices, the other CD is for low voices) so you are sure to find a key comfortable for your range. The trio accompaniment is rich and hip - the REAL thing - and tailored specifically for jazz vocalists. Book includes lead lines and lyrics written above the staves.
Body And Soul, I Cant Get Started, Dancing In The Dark, I Didnt Know What Time It Was, Embraceable You, I Only Have Eyes For You, I Could Write A Book, I Thought About You, Love Is Here To Stay, Someone To Watch Over Me, When I Fall In Love, Where Or When
All Of You, At Long Last Love, Easy To Love, From This Moment On, Get Out Of Town, Ive Got You Under My Skin, I Concentrate On You, I Get A Kick Out Of You, I Love You, In The Still Of The Night, Just One Of Those Things, Love For Sale, Night And Day, What Is This Thing Called Love, Youd be So Nice To Come Home To

Jameys play-a-long series has been an invaluable part of my practice schedule ever since I bought my first volume (on vinyl) in the 70s. I have collected more than 100 of them over the years and have found them a constant source of enjoyment and education. They have helped me keep my chops together and learn tunes especially at times when there was not jam sessions to be found. Guy Barker, London Trumpet PRO

The world famous Jamey Aebersold Play-A-Longs offer you the unique chance to perform with jazz Legends. Each track is the essence of jazz. When you play with Ron Carter, Kenny Barron, or Dave Brubeck, theres no pretense about it; you KNOW its as authentic as it gets! With practice time so short and precious, why not play with the BEST?

EFFORTLESS MASTERY
by KENNY WERNER
If youve played for 30 years and hardly ever enjoyed it, if youve constantly pointed to other players and thought they possessed something you didnt, or if youve practiced for years and never really improved, read on. The world is made up of two kinds of people: The ones who play the right stuff and the ones who are looking for the right stuff. You will find yourself far more free and powerful if you assume that all the notes you play are the most beautiful sounds youve ever heard. Mastery is playing whatever youre capable of playing ... every time ... without thinking. Mastery is available to everyone. As fear pollutes the environment for creativity, it also inhibits effective study. The mind play havoc and the ego has a picnic. You want to be a great jazz player, for example, and your mind tells you it must be done by a certain age. If youre 18, it must be done by 21. When that doesnt happen, you give it until 25. By 25, its 30 ... and so on. If youre 35 or older, you feel the parade has passed you by.
This best-selling book has helped thousands of musicians to overcome apprehension, self-doubt, and other hinderances to natural, joyful performance. Kenny Werner puts you on a course to effortless mastery, where playing music is a simple as drawing a breath. Includes a CD designed to initiate positive thought. Also available is a DVD of Kenny explaining his ideas and concepts before a packed house in New York City. Through his highly acclaimed and proven techniques, one can remove the technical and psychological barriers to creativity that afflict us all and liberate the master musician within.

I began using Jameys Play-A-Longs with students while living in NYC in the late 70s. I continued using them exclusively with students after moving to Germany in 1980, while teaching in Universities, private jazz schools and my own saxophone workshops. There are other play-a-longs on the market today, but Jameys are still the best and offer the most choices. Peter Ponzol, Saxophonist, Mouthpiece Maker, Saxophone Designer and Educator

I have used Jameys play-a-long sets since 1980 at Case Western Reserve University to teach improvisation and for personal practice. Almost 30 years later, I still use them regularly for personal practice, teaching, and clinics. In addition, the bass, piano and drum transcription books should be an essential part of a jazz educators arsenal. As I work with students who have LESS knowledge of this great music, these materials give them MORE accurate information than was even imaginable when I was their age.

To learn to solo and improvise as easily and headache-free as possible is the basic idea of this bass book. It is meant to give the beginning and advanced electric bassist access to jazz improvisation in the smoothest possible way. Certain prerequisite skills are assumed: basically, this book addresses electric bassists who can accompany the odd standard (and thus are acquainted with the jazz idiom in at least a vague fashion) but cringe at the prospect of having to solo (not to mention symptoms such as cardiac arrhythmia, circulatory insufficiency and profuse sweating). The basic harmonic structure of the present exercises is supplied by the ubiquitous II-V-I progression, a pattern found in many jazz standards, which shall consequently lie at the core of our improvisational attention. The Four Fret System fingering technique, whose strength lies in the visual recognisability of its patterns, is explained and showcased in 99 of my favorite licks (or lines). Kurt Erlmoser analyzes the structural level of the improvisations and provides an in-depth understanding of the process. The exercises are meant to cater to the theoretical and technical skills of the student; however, the actual goal should be absorbing the information and generating lines of your own. n MELODIC PLAYING IN THE THUMB POSITION by Michael Moore MMB $27.50 This book/CD set offers a method to solve the problem of being ruled by roots in a solo.

Charlie Bird Parker practiced 11 to 15 hours a day for 3 to 4 years.

In 1983 I invited Jamey Aebersold and David Baker to present a 3-day seminar, Techniques for Improvisation at Goldsmiths College, London, UK. About 50 musicians attended and I immediately saw how much they benefited from using the Aebersold play-a-longs to build their improv skills. I particularly recall a student at the closing session who said that she had learnt more in those three days than in the previous three years at a certain London music college. The following year I started my business, Jazzwise Publications, which recently celebrated 25 years of distributing Aebersold Play-A-Longs in the UK. Charles Alexander

Young musicians should trust their own instincts and blaze their own trails. Dont play jazz to become rich or famous. It happens to a few. Come to jazz because you love it so much you cant imagine life without it.

Tons of comments by the very best in business. The most typical one: As a virtuoso hard bop trumpeter, Ponomarev creates beautiful, expressive solos that crackle with visceral, right-tothe-point, memorable musical narratives. Recounting his own fascinating life, Ponomarev is also a riveting storyteller. His words ring with candor and direct, unaffected emotion. Packed with enough dramatic juice to fuel a Hollywood biopic, the Russian migrs autobiography is an invaluable contribution to jazz literature. - and a good read as a winning human interest story.
