GREAT

the CD is the best part of the bundle and alone worth the price! Mac lays it all out - the history, the tradition, the terminology, his own thoughts behind his work and much more. Though you need at least some jazz background to dive confidently in the material...

Not all songs in print form

No printed music for:"Albert Ammons Boogie", "How Long","Down by the Riverside", "Whirlaway". Songs are available for listening to on the accompanying CD with a written analysis or commentary about them in the book. Informative, but not what I was hoping for.

Good stuff

As far as learning Louisiana style blues, this series of books is a really great tool. The cd has Dr. John himself speaking while he plays, which is awesome. There is a detailed version of each style and then a breakdown as to what the bass line is doing and...
