A great resource for blues bassists,
By Carl from Chicago - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Jump 'n' Blues Bass (Paperback)
I bought this book and CD not knowing what to expect. I played the CD in the car and it is 22 or so songs, of different musical styles.When I got home I started playing along and just learned a ton right away. The author goes through myriad bass styles from Stevie Ray Vaughan's bassist to the guy from Blues Brothers (Dunn) and many others. By playing along with the CD which contains a full band you can pick up their styles right away. Plus, it is both in Tab and music and it lays out the chord changes so that you know what key you are playing in. As a beginning to mid level bass player I would highly recommend this, especially at this low price. 8 of 8 people found the following review helpful

Jump'n blues bass,
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Jump 'n' Blues Bass (Paperback)
An excellent collection of bass lines in tab and standard notation. Arranged in the style of many of the most popular bassists in the genre,giving one example for each of a dozen or so artists.The included CD is arranged with the bass on one side so you can practice with the band by turning the balance full left channel.

Do the blues,
By J. D. Holton - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Jump 'n' Blues Bass (Paperback)
What a great bass blues book, with an unfortunate title. Keith covers some of the blues "greats" - "Duck Dunn", Tommy Shannon, etc. by using blues tunes to showcase the individual styles. Presented in notes and tabs with an accompanying CD. The CD allows you to "dump" the bass and play along with the band. Also, good commentaries on what makes a good blues bass player. The "Jump n" part of the title made me think the book only covered "old" blues styles, but it is a great overview of many styles.
