Recomend me a Jazz Blues Play along

[thesneakyjesus]

hey guys.
I've been trying to explore the blues a bit more deeply this semester. I found that there are lie a billion turn arounds and substitutions that are common that I just don't hear right away.

Is there a good play a long out there that will have at least:
minor blues
Bird blues
ii Vs
and ii Vs with substitutions
mingus type blues


Thanks guys.

I just know that there are some good play along cds that have changes that I haven't really tackled.

I was wondering if anyone had any expierence with these.
