Hey,

Any tips for best background music apps or websites for Blues, Pop, R&B. I am not looking to create my own music just for backing tracks at home. Could be free or economically good. Obviously one gets what one pay's for.

Thanks

Hello inky. You can start

Hello inky. You can start with downloading the jam tracks found in the various study songs. After that...

http://jimileeband.com - GrooveTrax™ Backing Tracks "Every Groove A Bluesman Needs To Know"

and...

http://www.ultijamtracks.com Ultimate Jam Tracks

As for harmonica-specific, Sho has made tracks... email him from here http://www.bluesharptracks.com and see what he has available.

Also, Hal Leonard has a cool one for Little Walter tunes called "Hal Leonard Little Walter Harmonica Play-Along Series." Doing a search under that name will give you purchase options.

Also, Steve Baker has a killer series of jam tracks.
