It takes the study of scales to whole new level, and contains things that I've never seen anywhere else. The 3 and 4 note chords section for each scale is brilliant. I've been using this for composing and it's really opening up new doors for me. F. Owen ....Arnold's inclusion of how you hear these scales in musical situations is very revealing, making a strong case that if you can't hear these scales in relationship to chord progressions you are kidding yourself that you have scales together. The 2 and 3 note sequencing patterns are really a great way to get that scale knowledge together, by the way. Based on the strength of this impressive compendium I also purchased Ear Training One Note Completee and Contextual Ear Training. S. Handel I saw this book and thought "Yeah another scale book --YAWN." I had emailed Bruce about ear training and he recommended I get this book along with some of his direct application ear training CDs and improvise over the tracks on the CD with some of the scales from the book. NO YAWNS! This really turned my head --and my ear-- around. I realized I was THINKING about music a lot more than I was USING MY EAR to tell me what to do. Do yourself a favor get in touch with Bruce and do a study of scales and ear training with him. You'll see a complete transformation in the way you think about music. D. Nordlinger. I play bass and guitar so this book really helped me in a bunch of ways. It obviously helped me understand bass lines and how to re-harmonize chord progressions to get a hipper sound but I also spent a lot of time just improvising over the audio tracks. It's like having an in-house bass player to jam with everyday. Highly recommended .... B. Ryan
