Since November 2008, there is the Real Book Hal Leonard Play-Along with a number of CDs. An ingenious idea, The Real Book in this form or in a similar issue you have anyway. In the various editions are each 3 CDs with 60 play-alongs. The recordings are kept in the usual good quality and very nicely recorded.

For some time, the four play-along books available on Amazon: The Real Book Play-Along, Volume 1 AD The Real Book Play-Along, Volume 1 EK The Real Book Play-Along, Volume 1 LR The Real Book Play-Along, Volume 1 BR And here's the link to the appropriate book: The Real Book: B-Flat (Hal Leonard) for Tenor Saxophone and E Flat (Real Books (Hal Leonard)) for alto saxophone. Is a good alternative to the usual play-alongs and much cheaper! The play-alongs are also ideal to practice soloing and improvising. Due to the wide selection of pieces is certainly something for everyone.
