Jazz Play Along
Backing Tracks

No more waiting for the band to show up. No more searching for a usable track online. This collection gives you a professional musical foundation for practice, teaching, rehearsal, and performance preparation.

The majority of songs from Real Book Volume 1 are included here, skipping only the ultra-obscure ones. Every track is designed to give you the real feel of playing with a working jazz group.

Three to five play-along tracks are provided for most songs, with varied tempos, instrumentation, and style. Bass-and-drums-only tracks support harmonic practice or trio-style melodic work. Keys are indicated clearly in every file name.

This is 4.17 GB of music, 103 hours and 44 minutes of continuous play, about four and a half days of non-stop jazz. At $34.95, it works out to roughly 3 cents per track.

Documentation includes a complete table of contents in both PDF and Excel format, so you can sort by song title, key, or audio run time. Every file name includes the key, so you always know what you are getting before you hit play.
