5.0 out of 5 stars
It's the best book on melodic improvisation ever written., September 3, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Jazz Improvisation: The Goal Note Method (Plastic Comb)
This book explains the method for using chord tones (goal notes) to create melodic lines. This approach is far more flexible than the chord/scale approach. Scales are also covered in a no-nonsense fashion.
