[bassoneman]

Hey,, I hope you find this Jam Track useful.. Do a search on Rumble House Rockabilly and In the relevence sort by date. This is the band I am in check it out.. Leave a comment on the videos when you get there. Rock on...

[graphisnoblis]

@kameleon8791 i googled "blues scales with 7th chords" and there is a lot of debate on the subject. It appears that many of the "pros" don't play the "blue" notes because it doesn't sound right. But, there were arguments to the contrary as well: the minor pentatonic is what makes the blues--even with major sevenths. I also played to the above track using the major pentatonic. In both cases, notes must be chosen wisely.

[graphisnoblis]

@kameleon8791 wrong. if you are soloing you CAN play a G pentatonic, which uses a G minor. I just used my piano playing a G blues scale to this track. If you have a keyboard and know a basic blues scale, you'll see.

[detswbeach]

This a way cool tool,....do have more like this?

[bassoneman]

Thanks all for using this Jam I hope it helps.. I posted a video responce of our band doing Stray Cat Strut . Check It out and post a comment to let me know you were there.. Thanks.. Oh And Share it on face Book... Thanks..

[Shamp0ooo]

love when you throw a IV Chord into the second bar!

[1971SuperLead]

That was great using my key of C diatonic harmonica!

[jageone]

I love noodling around on this track!

[reximan2]

hey man im kinda a noob so what chordds is this?

[KaPPaFuQk]

@reximan2 if you really want to study an instrument, you should find em out yourself. The bass note shows the chord( in most cases) , you just find it on the guitar or piano or whatever you are jamming on.

[RideLXbindings]

@reximan2 g major 7 Cmajor 7 Dmajor 7

[DonRadzio]

haha awesome! so much fun :D!

[al3xb777]

YOUR AWESOME!!! what a great song to play over! thanks alot for this track, i keep it on repeat and practice harmonica to it. great stuff man! keep it coming!

[papypop1]

Sorry,I think I've got to clean my ears...Cause all along your track if it starts in G sometimes we can slide up or down in A#...Sorry***** But it's really in G. Jean Paul.

[papypop1]

I'm sorry my friend, but it's an A# scale. I agree with "juicebox0007". Having said that your backing track is very good. From France. Jean Paul. 

[juicebox0007]

this is an A# scale, sorry bud

[hd5770Gamer]

@xGrinder07x i did too... :$

[66V12]

Played G-Dorian to this and threw in a little A flat lol Beastiness, even though I was playing a Jazz Scale on a Blues Track lmao

[ZackDonovan]

thank you !

[filou24000]

merci

[spartacusvikinga]

I am learning the harmonica in C and this is brilliant to play along to. Thank you very much.

[Thorncage]

@spartacusvikinga I second this. Thanks again for posting this video!!!

[SteveoBaggins]

As a beginner I think this is awesome and appreciate you taking the time to put this up here for cats like me. thanks

[RRyyNNee]

that was fun! and really easy to learn and mess around with. good practice video for a "non-expert"

[TableEnMousse]

@noooblover Do you even know the purpose of the video ? ahaha

[snake4869]

[HitaroX]

[bulletproovemusic]

Thnx

[thefinnman92]

[ungwigwi]

Id like to post a jam , can I use this for a cover also , thanks in advance for your response , Its just right for me :)

[bassoneman]

[losredondos1986]

[juantreeko]

[NoosesGive]

ok a bit of a beginners blues question...

i can play g scale blues over this... what else blues scale... is it 2 up? so B blues scale will fit too?

cos it seems not too....

someone please help:)

[pbskl]

eff ya bro theery sux lol its only for nerd reel gittar plyers don need theery lol they just SHRED like who needs to no wut notes sound good 2gether like isnt that for gays?

[NoosesGive]

@pbskl play with the best guitarists in the world and you wont know what the fuck you are doing....

some theory is really important, don't have to learn everything, but a bit helps a shit load!

[TheCaseRoc]

@pbskl ---Theery? Reel? Gittar? For fuck's sake man! You been eating paint chips, or are you 4 years old?  Because if you can't claim one of those two excuses, I am seriously sad for you.

[pbskl]

@TheCaseRoc I'm not sure whether I should be disappointed in your pitiful intellect for failing to detect such blatant sarcasm, or the laughable stupidity of the YouTube community in general for making a statement like that believable.

[TheCaseRoc]

@pbskl ---I'm going to say you definitely need to be disappointed with the YouTube community. My intellect is sharp, but I'm so used to seeing ignorant, misspelled posts that yours was totally believable.

[kingOfThEFucKingDark]

i jam with you

[vexamatic]

That's a mighty white blues track.

[paintedcar]

Hmm. The scales that work best over this progression are Eb minor, Bb minor, C minor - all with the Picardy 3rd, as well as the passing flat 5 (5-b5-4). The F minor scale works well when you're on the V chord.

The G minor scale works as well, but it sounds kind of dry.

This is just 12 bar blues, you can pretty much make any note sound good if you use it right.

[JWBails]

@paintedcar Dude, no one cares, I cant stand people like you and go on every backing tracl and post you boring theory

[aawigg]

@JWBails So then you must be the guy who goes on every backing track and posts your boring whining and complaining about someone's knowledge that keeps showing up - somehow inappropriately - on a blues jam track that specified what key it was in?

[JWBails]

@aawigg Pretty much :)

[omegaguitarist1]

This helped so much thanks for posting this up =)

[poundcake12]

This helped SOOOOO much. Thank you. Will you be making others like this one but in different keys?

[doctordelfuturo]

luvs yOU

[jackbuddha2002]

Thanks for putting the scale up. It's a huge help!

[Maj0rSK]

can i play to this E pentatonic?

[MrSuicideMan]

can i use this for a cover? xD

[bassoneman]

@MrSuicideMan sure you can...

[RonVermillion]

bassoneman is correctamundo... You can use the scale over G major blues progression or a Gm progression. The difference is that the passing notes change around a bit.

Ron

[ivox777]

G MINORRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

[dLoLe]

I't G major... idiot -.-

[bassoneman]

G Blues Scale - G Minor Pentatonic with Blues notes added. Not G major Scale and Not G Minor Scale

[tdclark69]

@bassoneman try G Major Pentatonic or G Major blues over this. They work great. Or Play G Minor Pentatonic and throw in the Major third note of B

[onesweetlarissa4]

@dLoLe PWNED

[TheToastersOfficial]

@dLoLe G blues scale is almost the same as the minor pentatonic but with notes added to it

[Flowraince]

dude, i love this. i jam with my blues harp (harmonica) on this track A LOT! so thanks bassoneman for the upload.

[daytonohiofellowship]

I tried to make it a real old type blues sound with the blues driver and the dunkan pickups. Well I am new in this stile, so I miss a lot of licks and beets Geez..I been over this 100x Ohh well I will keep pressing on until I can play this thing..Nice Jam track!

[xXRoMpEcAmInOsXx]

hi , im a noob and im using this scale and i get ... dont know hot to xplain but is great the feeling u get while playing this .. but i think i suck at this but damn its great... im a punk rock fan but i really admire and like blues...

sry for my bad english

hoipe someday ill learn how to play it

[bassoneman]

Stay with it... I am 55 now I have been playing since I was 13, I am just a hack but I still love it.. You can throws some of this into the punk stuff. If you are playing something in G

[rosorus]

yeah man just enjoy it; so long as you're having fun who cares? :)

[numbard]

great job. Nice track, simple and clean. I love these youtube backing tracks, makes for great practice.

[grayson340910]

thanks! i could solo for hours to this

[bassoneman]

Wow It has been a year and a half (almost )since I posted this.. Thanks for all the great comments. Keep on playing... I posted a Folsom Prison Blues cover ( bluesy version. ) Same chords used in that... I am playing a resonator slide in that using the same notes as above... Blues is endless... Thanks again for stopping by...

[bassoneman]

Try playing Folsom Prison with Tom and I using the scale above...Remember when playing the blues is like a conversation each different instrument having it's own say. So let the guitar breath, Play when the singer isn't singing, try to answer the singer or talk back to the words, make your guitar talk softly, make it scream, make it cry have it tell your feelings. That is what this scale is all about..

[DINGDONG645]

Deep.

[chulstime]

isnt that scale an a pentatonic blues scale?

[bassoneman]

yes it is

[ernestamundo12]

kindof and minus the "blue note, the diagram pictured in in the key of G

[bassoneman]

Db is the blue note on the scale above. 5th string 4t fret, 3 string 6th fret

[ernestamundo12]

oh actually nevermind, there is the "blue note" there

[xsjadobruce]

yurp g minor blues pentatonic

[skipkent]

Excellent less. Really helped to clarify something that's been bugging me about blues soloing!

[ADILPROUD]

wot r the chords to this backin tack that go with thsi scale

[SupaBionicSonic]

I didn't make this but it sounds like 12 bar blues. Which, in the key of G, would be G major, C7, G major, G7, C7, C7, G major, G major, D7, C7, G major.

[ADILPROUD]

thanks man lots of help that was

[lizardkingzoso]

Are there other positions to solo on? Thanks for answering if anyone can.

[bassoneman]

do a serch on the web for the 5 position g blues scale and you'll fnd all the positions.

[rocknroller95]

i used just the one shown and it work fantastically

[lordakamai]

or just play notes and see if they fit in (i wouldn't try this very loud though xD)

[andypandyhu]

this is just the 1st position for the g blues scale as bassoneman said there are 5 positions in total, if your new to it just try the 1st then add the 2nd which will give you enough to play with till you feel comfortable to move on, also try mixing the positions together as you play

[mymuzack]

there are also other scales. try using eminor(g major) pentatonic over the G chord. a minor (c major) pentatonic over the C chord. b minor (d major) pentatonic over the D chord. find the notes that connect well between the scales and use them for transition to next chord

[GitarFreak185]

g mixolidean works well over the 7 chords

[fairycakes20]

god i could play with this for hours haha great job mate (Y)

[Iriemon0217]

Yeah, (except for the "blues" note), what is pictured in the G minor pentatonic.

The G Maj penatontic would be the same pattern moved down three frets (or so that the top notes would be the open strings).

[CankyCanky]

hey thanks man its pretty useful

[herbinho]

stupid people, this is in Gm, not G

[mrgorple]

its in G, buddy. theyre all Dominant 7 chords (major chord with a minor 7th)

[herbinho]

sorry, the notes(not chords) you are showing in the tabs of the video

are G Bb C C#(<-7th dominant of Bb chord, also known as the relative major chord of Gm chord) D F..

and this sequence of notes (scale) is the "Gm blues scale" (or also known as the pentatonic scale of Gm,

with his blues note C# added).

IF YOU WANT TO JAM IN G (or Em the relative minor) you use the blues scale for G:

G A Bb(<-blues note) B D E.

[bassoneman]

It is the G blues Scale.... and G Blues Scale is not G A Bb B D E and the Bb is not the blue note. The blues Scale For G is G Bb C C#(< blue note)D F. What you are describing

herbinho is the Gm scale not the G minor pentatonic. Confucius say "When man points a finger he has 3 pointing back at him"

[bassoneman]

this all being said the Gm Scale does sound interesting over the progression. So if it sounds good play it...... ( there is no right and wrong in music.. If it sounds good play it. If it don't, don't do it in public....)

[veggieburgerfish]

How do you manage that? I'm using a C to play simple cross harp- what position allows you to play a fourth up from the actual key of the harp?

[iamstoned4life]

Hey man, thx a lot for this jam track.

I enjoyed it :D

[lasht2monyon]

thanks great video, could you post some lick examples please ?

[irvingjohn]

Where's the second blue note in that scale diagram?  Also, where's the 2nd, 3rd, 4th, etc positions? Otherwise, I had fun jamming to your track!

[MrNatas]

Excellent, great way to learn. Especially when you are a lonely geek such as meself.

[Freonce]

Oh my god. That was so much fun to jam with. Thank you very much!!

[asdfasdsfsa]

nice

[ripken3317]

I'll be very happy to see more.

[BigPimpHomer]

[sk8borntodie]

i neeed more videos like this! how can i find them? thanks

[ElimRem]

are there anymore tracks like this to jam to on youtube?

[bassoneman]

ElimRem, I have a few more. Click in my names and you should see them. Thanks for jammin

[sk8borntodie]

yea but, there havent got the notes.. sorry im spanish haha...

[bassoneman]

These blues scales are movable to diffrent keys. For instance You lied to me is in the key of E so you play the same notes as up above but at the 12th fret. The Sky is fallen is in the key of A so move the pattern up above to the fifth fret. The pattern above is only one position. Go on the internet and do a search for blues scale positions in G. Practice it with the song above, when you get comfortable try moving to the A scale or E or what ever.

[sk8borntodie]

ok, thank you very much, now i can improve by myself! thanks a lot

[dodel1]

This is only about 1/5 of a scale right here, you know that, right?

[jfhickey]

I have some but they are a little more rock and roll than this one. This one is excellent!

[Lzinhu]

got my video already uploaded sorry im a newbie and i had a 5year old kid messing around me ;\ and tryin to touch the freaking guitar xD

[biketski]

what a great idea putting up the scale was, thanks alot!

[GoodGawd]

Nice track except for the almost fade out thingy..
