Additionally Creamer's Guitar Player magazine article "Advanced Improv, Generating 12-Tone Patterns" from 1989 has also been included.

Chromatic Enhancements of the Major Scale



Originally written in 1987, this work was never published and largely forgotten about until it was recently rediscovered in a storage facility. As relevant today as it was when it was originally written, this is an inspiring and impactful book that will greatly improve your approach to improvisation. These concepts and exercises have been a big part of Creamer's own musical development and have been taught to many of his students.
