Features:

100 Ultimate Blues Riffs for Tenor Saxophone is written by internationally acclaimed author and instructor Andrew D. Gordon. This product is an exhaustive guide to the various phrases or “riffs" that make up Blues saxophone playing, both from a rhythmic and soloing standpoint. This book is ideal for most levels of musicianship, from the beginner/intermediate student who is interested in understanding and playing the Blues to more advanced players that need new ideas to help stimulate their creativity. It is also useful as a tool for improving one’s sight reading abilities with the examples being in many different keys and rhythms. The 12 bar Blues progression and the Blues scale are also explained. Included with this book is a CD with each example recorded twice. The first version of each example has the saxophone playing along with a rhythm section and the second version just has the rhythm section playing so that the saxophonist can play along. An optional MIDI disk in General MIDI format is available. Customer Comments About This Book: Just got your 100 Blues licks for Tenor Saxophone today. I'm way impressed!! Very well designed book. Good mix of styles and tempos, good progression from beginning to end of the book, nice type fonts, and the CD tracks match the lick numbers!!!! I studied sax many moons ago, and I lost my motivation because of practicing all that "On top of Old Smokey, Home, home on the range" kind of stuff. Thank God some instrument instruction books recognize the blues these days. Thanks for the excellent book. R.E. CA Dear Andrew, Finding your book "100 Ultimate Blues Riffs" has been a Godsend and has literally changed my life. After hearing me play along with your book I was asked to play in my local church band! This book is a must have for any sax player from student to professional and I'm recommending your products to every musician I know. I'd love to see additional products by you such as Gospel songs for the alto sax as well as soprano sax music like your flute series. Thanks again Andrew and may God bestow His blessings on you and yours as He has on me. Best Regards,GC
