Why limit yourself to just one approach? I've got several book/tape/cd's and they all have valuable information. There is so much to know and so many methods which work that they can't all be covered in one volume. Use this site, other sites,ask players, read books, listen to music--it's all going to contribute to your repertoire and enjoyment. It's all good!!

I hate to ask you to choose but which would you recommend for an advanced beginner who is approaching the intermediate level. I like Barrets approach from what I've heard off his website but I haven't heard any of Portnoys stuff. I figure I'm going to be living and breathing this material for the next several years and I want to make sure I make the right choice.
