By Bill Boyd.

A second collection of great original jazz pieces written in an easy-going, lighthearted style. Easy-to-learn solos in 5-finger positions that shift up and back within a basic blues pattern. Uses eighth notes, swing eighths, simple and 6/8 meters. Short, authentically-styled easy jazz for the late-elementary student. A real favorite for all ages. 11 Solos: Dixieland Jam · Hand-to-Hand Combat · Major Song · Minor Song · Primetime Blues · A Rather Racous Rock · The Rock Exchange · Six Ate Beets · Soft Shoe Shuffle · Sweet Swing · Why Not?
