I could really use a book with piano grooves covering as many (contemporary/popular) genres as possible.
Ideally this book will contain with 1 or 2 notated 2- or 4-bar examples per genre, giving text-examples of popular tunes that'd work with the grooves, as I'm capable of applying these to whatever tune i'll be working on.
I'd love to get recommendations on books like this. Or books that gets close to what I'm describing.
I apologize if this Q doesn't fit in the forums 'music theory' category, but it was the closest.
thanks for reading

Take a look at the The Pop Piano Book by Mark Harrison (Hal-Leonard). It doesn't list songs but it has example grooves in a lot of styles plus a section on useful progressions and resolutions.
