This type of list/CD is great for students. I'd like to see a bunch of
lists, some intended for advanced musicians, others for students. I'd also
like to see collections of "good licks" for various instruments--I've had
several requests for these. 

My website  http://cpcug.org/user/dwlit
has various tools to help folks get into our favorite music. One of the
things I'm trying to do is make lists of CDs useful as learning tools. I'd
be very happy to have "Licks and Solos" as a separate page on the website,
so if you want to submit lists for inclusion, shoot 'em to me. I'll arrange
'em by instrument. Just make sure you provide the title and catalog number
of the CD/LP so folks can look them up, plus the name of the performer.
