The Solo Workout by Andrew D. Gordon can be used by any musician who wants to improve their improvisational skills in Blues, Rock & Funk styles. This product consists of 15, 3 minute rhythm tracks so that any musician can try out soloing ideas while playing along to drums, bass, guitar and keyboards.

The book shows the chord progressions used in each of the examples as well as 10 soloing ideas for each Groove.
