As an aspiring blues man it is time to learn and practice some new tunes! However, the sheer amount of material out there is overwhelming - thus a kind of anchor is much needed to help give depth to practice sessions.
A 28 strong list by learnjazzstandards.com is a great example of such an anchor. Created by a marvellous guy, it is an invaluable resource with chord sheets, play-alongs and links to original recordings of jazz standards - I highly recommend you to check out their YT channel.
Still, to quickly learn the maximum number of tunes, one may also need the melody&chords (lead sheet) as well as the head theme in one handy file together with the play-along. This is why I have started to create a presentation with all these on 28 slides, setting the embedded YT video to only play the head theme of the originals.
You can find the work in progress here in my Google Docs folder.
