Everything it claims to be! Especially wonderful for developing bass guitar players.
Executive summary, TL;DR: I'm so glad I bought this, for the musical transcriptions, the history and biography, and the online audio contents. Details: This was a great buy for me, as a bass guitarist trying to up his game musically and become more familiar with the music and lives of those who have gone before. It combines fascinating, unflinching, yet also kind, understanding, and appreciative insight into the life and music of James Jamerson and the "Funk Brothers". The book is about half biography and history and half transcriptions of some of James Jamerson's most excellent and influential bass lines. As the original purchaser of a new hard-copy of the book, I was able use the included code to download the associated online files of notable bassists (including Jamerson's son ... Executive summary, TL;DR: I'm so glad I bought this, for the musical transcriptions, the history and biography, and the online audio contents. Details: This was a great buy for me, as a bass guitarist trying to up his game musically and become more familiar with the music and lives of those who have gone before. It combines fascinating, unflinching, yet also kind, understanding, and appreciative insight into the life and music of James Jamerson and the "Funk Brothers". The book is about half biography and history and half transcriptions of some of James Jamerson's most excellent and influential bass lines. As the original purchaser of a new hard-copy of the book, I was able use the included code to download the associated online files of notable bassists (including Jamerson's son James Jamerson, Jr.) playing the transcriptions given in the book. The playing of these files can be slowed down and transposed to different musical keys using the included integrated player software. Definitely worth buying a new copy of the book, rather than used, unless one is *only* interested in the biographical material. It it wonderful to hear Jamerson's lines played clearly by excellent musicians, and with the bass on one stereo channel and everything else on the other, you can choose to hear the bass line in all its glory and then listen again to see how it fits in the mix and supports what's going on with the other musicians and the piece as a whole. One heads-up for those who want to play, as well as hear Jamerson's bass lines: The written transcriptions are in standard musical notation, not tab. That's fine by me, as it gives me further motivation to develop my facility with reading, and with placing bass lines on the fretboard. Anyway, I don't know that there is anyone who could offer an authoritative tab for every note, whereas the recordings from which the transcriptions were made are a matter of musical record! Even if I couldn't read standard notation, I think the online files would still be worth it to me. As useful as sight reading can be, there's much to be said for getting the music in one's head before working it out on the instrument. And I need to train my ear and feel every bit as much as I need to develop my chops. I'm grateful to the author and publisher of this book, and to all who made it possible. Wow!

Great book about an unsung Bass hero!
The book is very entertaining and gives the reader a glimpse into the life of a man who shaped popular music during the 1960's and continues to influence listeners today. The CD's add another level of understanding. I only wish that the charts were in tab as well as on staff. If you play or are thinking about playing bass this is a must read. Ditto for those who lovethe Motown sound!
