Building Solo Lines from Cells

Based on an earlier guitar method book, Building Solo Lines from Cells makes Randy's deep knowledge of jazz available to players on any instrument. This is a practical method for developing the ability to create convincing jazz solos in a wide variety of playing situations II-V-I progressions, Coltrane changes, turnarounds, etc. etc. A thorough approach to mastering your instrument, the book takes actual lines recorded by the jazz greats and then slices them up into small cells that can be re-combined into longer lines to fit almost any harmonic situation. This enables the player to improvise his or her own solos that sound just as interesting and melodic as the masters, without resorting to simply copying them. An invaluable resource for the serious musician!
