    Is there a GOOD book of licks, that has examples over common chord progressions that someone could recommend please?

    Is Ted Greene still the best? Or are there better examples?

    What you want is David Baker's How to Play Bebop Vol. 2.

    "Volume 2 takes common bebop progressions and demonstrates their practical use. Licks are presented within exercises and followed by a list of standard tunes utilizing that progression or scale. The II-V7 progression is covered extensively in both major and minor keys. Other topics include turnbacks, cycles, creating a bebop bass line and a list of essential bebop tunes that should be committed to memory."
