Brian, this may not be what your after, but if you want variety this is your book.

It's author, Tom Heimer, a member here, introduces the player to near random note sequences that are the ultimate extension of any scale, to the point that it's not scales.

But in the player's inability to much memorize, concentration on the notes ahead must be given the utmost attention, as there are no melodic ques.

IMHO it makes sight reading scales with predictable patterns seem much easier,: I would hope one of the book's intentions.

I make zero $ with anyone's purchase.
