I was expecting a book of jazz bass lines. Instead, this was a collection of jazz melodies written in bass clef. Very limited appeal IMO.

Jazz retards Jimmy Haslip and Barry Coates like to RIP OFF bass players. You would think that the words: "..For Bass" on the front cover of this piece of crap would actually MEAN something, but, UNFORTUNATELY, they do not. Like me, do you like to improvise with play along CDs? Well, with this play along CD you CAN'T! Why? I'll tell you why; because the stereo seperation is ALL WRONG! These idiots are either lazy, stupid or nothing but rip off artists becaused they used the SAME CD as the one they used with "..For Guitar".
The stereo seperation is:
Left Channel: Melody/Lead Guitar
Right Channel: Rythem Guitar, Bass and Drums
If this book was REALLY meant "..For Bass" then the stereo seperation would have been:
Left Channel: Bass
Right Channel: Melody/Lead Guitar, Rythem Guitar and Drums
Do yourself a favor, don't get ripped off like I did;

DO NOT BUY!!!!

The stereo seperation on the CD is totally BOGUS!
This is what it is:

Left Channel: Melody/Lead Guitar
Right Channel: Rythem Guitar, Bass, and Drums.

This is what it SHOULD be:

Left Channel: Bass
Right Channel: Melody Guitar, Rythem Guitar and Drums.

Unfortunately it's impossible to isolate the bass or remove it so that you can improvise with the CD.

Don't waste your time or your money on this.
