They are on there. We have put the backing versions on track 1 to 8 so you can get to them quicker in a performance situation. The vocal and harmony (if applicable) versions follow. The track numbers are listed on the CD surface and for your convenience on the lyrics sheets above each song.

What are harmony tracks?

Harmony tracks are extra tracks to help teach a group in your choir harmony to a given song. There can be one to four harmony tracks for one song. In each track, a specific harmony will be much louder than other vocals so that students can listen and follow the harmony. You can use the REPEAT button on your CD player to allow your students to sing one harmony over and over. Harmony tracks are included with most songs on selected CD’s. The selected CD's are usually in range we call Senior Choir. They include Senior Choir, Modern Choir, Harmony Choir and coming soon Pop Choir. These tittles are aimed at students in year 4 and above. We have also included harmony tracks on our two Christmas CD's and, coming soon, our Modern Christian Singer Series.

Why is Jam 2005 & 2004 Song Book so cheap?

Jam Song Book was created to compete with ABC Sing Book. Many teachers have requested a new book that addresses what the ABC Sing Book has failed to offer. It must still be a competitive price and over 1000 schools have found out, in this case, competition is good for teachers of music. The Jam 2004 Song Book and the Jam 2004 Triple CD Pack are great successes. Many are saying it is vastly superior to Sing. Jam 2005 will arrive in December 2004 and will marry with Jam 2004 as a complete music program for primary music.
