practice tracks for Bass

[spiritofcatemac]

Hello everybody...

wow this forum is extent.. I took me some time to decide were to post my question... so here I go..

I recently bought from Berklee Pess the book "Playing the Changes", definitely the best purchase I ever made.. now a long with the book came a CD with some practice tracks, just Drums and Piano, and very pleasant to play along and study improvising..

I would like to get more tracks like that from different songs, well some of the most traditional jazz standards Autmleafs, Sumertime, Night in Tunisia, Cantaloup Islande, All of Me, Prelude to a Kiss, etc... I know I should ask a piano player and he probably could do that within some minutes but I don't have a piano player to ask so I ask here.. lol

I appreciate any help in advance.. thanks Chris

Backing tracks to hundreds of jazz standards. The number shown is the BPM.

The chord progression for most of the backing tracks can be found in the tool bar under "Song List".

You probably have found this already, if not the catalog is a must.

Get some Aebersold of course. There are so many volumes to choose from. You'll find something in there. The panning method is very useful.
