Aebersold Jazz Ear Training

Hey Guys... I don't have a tin ear at all.. but I don't have the greatest ear.. I can pick out notes about 65% of the time. I want to focus my ear and make it better. I'm looking at Jamey Aebersolds Jazz Ear Training. The book is in My Cart currently.. and I'll give it until later tonight... so please get back to me and let me know what you think of it.. and if you don't like it.. if you could recommend another? Thanks!

It's my favorite ear training program, and it challenges me quite a bit...especially the chords. I've been working with it off and on during my commute to work for some months now.

I still have to pause the CD and sing out the intervals to satisfy myself that I'm getting the right root and chord (maj, dom, min7, half-dim), but for me it's been a blast to work with. Watch out cause Abersold sneaks in little 9th chord ringers and stuff without warning too...

Maybe. I don't know, really.
