A.D.G. Productions have announced the release of Ultra Smooth Jazz Grooves for Guitar by Andrew D. Gordon and Frank Villafranca, collectively known as The Super Groovers.
This new 50 page book comes with an audio CD, MIDI files and extended rhythm play-a-long tracks are also available.
The smooth jazz grooves in this 50 page book feature a variety of contemporary rhythm section styles including R&B, Jazz, Funk, Top 40, Rock, Gospel, Hip Hop and Latin.
On each of the 20 tracks, the groove is separated into 3 melodic ideas. Each melodic idea (example or riff) is played first, by the guitar with the groove, followed by just the rhythm section groove, without the guitar. The 1st example is usually the easiest, the 2nd slightly harder and the 3rd the most difficult.
Versions for each groove are available as midi files or extended MP3 files where the rhythm tracks for each groove are recorded for approximately 2 minutes.
A version for tenor (Bb) and alto sax (Eb) are also available with versions for piano, flute, violin and brass instruments available in the upcoming months.
