yeah, still on this...the 3 examples are exactly the same as 3 modes of harmonic minor with the addition of one passing tone, which falls on the same pattern.

#1 = Dorian #4 (4th mode of harmonic...

@Bruce Clausen: was that book called Patterns For Jazz by Jerry Coker - Jimmy Casale - Gary Campbell - Jerry Green? if so, I've got it. one section in particular I really liked was 'Major Scale in...

I wonder if Richards dreamed it with a Jimi Hendrix Fuzz Tone for that riff. I had one of those. two settings: fuzz and more fuzz. I used the 'more fuzz' setting for Satisfaction in my teenage band.

I'm not convinced that this minor scale can be as easily dismissed as per the above, taking into account the two other scales with C and E tonics. The thread is about minor scales. to the best of my...

how 'bout 'Flying in a Blue Dream' in C Lydian (Gmaj scale) ...one of my favs. Gmaj is easy, right? play along! and for any who may not know, emphasize the F# & B

do dreams count? many years ago I was trying to learn The Christmas Song (Chestnuts roasting by an open Fire) by ear for Christmas busking. it had some tricky parts that I couldn't figure out by ear...

...then I didn't need to post it twice? I guess I shouldn't 'Go Advanced'

...how 'bout a copyright for the other 2 scales, same notes different tonics?

.... and don't forget the bluesviolin extended minor blues/kinda dorian scale. 1 2 b3 4 b5 5 6 b7 or A B C D Eb E Gb G (A)

I'm gonna copyright it, make a fortune, fly out to Cremona and pick up a...

Thank you JL277z for the comment, and mee & Ranald for the thunbs up, much appreciated. I recorded these from a 6 channel Peavy PA head into a little Behringer mixer into a Ghetto blaster on...

I hope y'all don't mind me posting some violin under the Gospel category. these are 2 out of 22 songs I wrote around 2001 - 2003. I'm doing the vocals, violin, and on one of them a bit of lead...

...going a few posts back...I agree with Explorer on his views on woodshedding. case in point: a while back I thought I should brush up on my chops with the minor blues scale for keys of G C D, so I...

this is so true. I've gotten a lot of mileage out of these over the years. about 8 years ago I spent about 2 1/2 years doing the blues bar jams in town here. I stopped completely, but the past coupla...

Hello JonZ: I don't think these scales sound jazzy either. It's just that people in the violin world don't seem to talk about using the Major blues scale much (if at all) for that major-ish swing...

the only thing I'm not 100% sure of is the two cities, but the guy in charge was talking about that particular venue, not the city or area in general.

I you tubed some Lonnie Johnson. I guess...

I guess it depends on whether you want your jazz to be bluesy, your blues to be jazzy or your blues to be bluesy. an anecdote from a jazz violinist from England who went to one of the U.S. blues...

apologies if this has been discussed before. it's not rocket science, but it has served me well. based upon the generally accepted 6 note blues scale 1 b3 4 b5 5 b7 and it's inversion the major blues...

....yes, finding out if their were official names was one of the main purposes of the thread other than sharing them. Maybe I'm just looking for validation. but for what I mostly play, major and...

so... can we call these modal 8 note scales? I'm just waiting to say "Let them henceforth be known as Modal-Bop" :grin:

I will punch in the G7b9 and see what I can do with that. I read that article and it makes sense. Thank you. I play mostly blues, but dabble in jazz as kind of a hobby. I'm 65 and it's too late for...

well, I can see I'm gonna have a bit of trouble keeping up with you guys! would like to respond to the minor II-V-I. good ol' Jamie Aebersold offers 16 patterns over Dmin7b5 > G7#9 > Cmin. His...

I practice mostly in E A D G C, and that would also give you the relative minors of each. (pretty much what Bill McCall was saying and I agree that Dminor-F is also very useful) because these are the...

@des: thank you for that explanation/breakdown, makes sense to me and helped me to grok what is happening.

funny you should mention the 5th mode of harmonic minor Phrygian Dominant, as it happens...

Howdy Folks! my first post...I play violin (no mando) but I've been working on some 8 note bebop type scales, and ran across something that I think is quite interesting. the following 3 scales all...
