Sax Instruction: This book/online audio pack is solely devoted to providing you with a complete overview of the techniques and styles popularized by the greatest blues saxophonists of all time. All the best are here: from the rough-hewn Chicago Blues of Eddie Shaw and A.C. Reed, to the organ combo soul/jazz of Stanley Turrentine and Willis "Gator" Jackson. Includes lessons, music, historical analysis, rare photos and more everything you need to master the blues saxophone! The accompanying audio includes 18 full-band tracks. Audio is accessed online using the unique code inside the book and can be streamed or downloaded. The audio files include PLAYBACK+, a multi-functional audio player that allows you to slow down audio without changing pitch, set loop points, change keys, and pan left or right.

As a guitarist and pianist, I'm using this book/CD to get some ideas (and also to improve my music reading in those "wind keys" as Ab or F#!). I love it. Of course, there are some more "in-depth" studies on Lester, Rollins and such out there, but I think this is one-of-a-kind related to real blues and R&B tenor sax players, and it covers almost any corner of the subject. Actually, I only missed some example of J.T. Brown's playing, but I guess it's no so hard to work on that just by ear. Very recommended... to any musician, not just sax players.
