What's the end goal? I think it's better to learn to read exercises and pull real jazz (heads and solos) by ear. Though I guess you need to start ear training somewhere.

The end goal, is that learning the phrases by ear will be beneficial to getting better articulation and detailed nuances.
The tracks seem to have chord progressions from well known Jazz standards.
Greg Fishman is a good player, that can be heard from listening to the tracks
Maybe a [Study Group]?

Yeah, I read the book description. I think it'll be useful, but not something I can take on right now. I'll probably get the book and use it for reading after I'm through Mel Bay. If I'm going to play in a big band, I need to get more confident at reading.

Jazz Phrasing for Beginners-- learn 5 tunes as sung by Ella Fitzgerald. Just the melody.

This is about beginners learning by ear the 'Greg Fishman: Jazz Phrasing for Beginners' tracks.
They're easy to learn by ear and the articulation is very beneficial.

I missed that there were YouTube tracks.
These aren't bad...some are a little stiff, but I think that's probably from trying to make the rhythms relatively easy to write down if someone were learning them by ear... and I do think that definitely someone just starting out could probably learn them by ear. And they're all named after streets in Chicago, so that's cool. They definitely sound like "heads" and not solos, if that makes sense...and I do think that's a better place for a beginner to begin ear training...I see a lot of folks try to jump into stuff that's over their head and they spend hours and hours getting good at slowing down tracks and looping sections...maybe less good at actually ear training.
Probably a good second step is to figure out what tunes these are contrafacts of?

If anyone is interested in starting a learn by ear 'Greg Fishman: Jazz Phrasing for Beginners' tracks [Workgroup] let me know.
The first 'Milwaukee Avenue' is obviously a 12bar Jazz blues.
I think it will be part of the fun to find out what Jazz Standards they are based on, after repeated listening it will probably be obvious.
