I don't know where you can find them, but I have a two sided sheet of blues scales for tenor if you would like me to scan them in and send you the pictures of the two sides so you can transpose, I'd be glad too. Email me at kiley__jane@msn.com if you want to see my tenor blues scales.

Try this website, it works very well for majors, minors, pentatonics and blues. You will have to transpose from concert pitch, but that is easy enough. The url is http://www.jazclass.aust.com/scales/scablu.htm

I hope that this helps you, you can come with some pretty awesome stuff with blues. I am in a Jazz band myself, and play the baritone sax, with some alto solos sometimes.
Good luck

Scales are the same for every instrument.

I don't have the 12 written down, although I can if you want. You can figure out your own from this. Use notes from the major scale.

1, flat 3rd, 4, flat 5th, 5th, flat 7th, 1 (octave)
