Marty. . . I have an idea. you know that loop that you played in the very beginning of the video? Record two hours straight of you soloing over that. . . broadcast it over the speakers. . . and then, when everyone is hypnotized and spacing out and listening to the beautiful music, you can take over the world. Seriously, I would let you.
Go buy Jimmy Bruno's "No nonsense jazz". You'll understand and play all the modes in a week or even less. It's very easy, made for dummies like me :-)
jea... I liked it.... I only have a very small tip, (if I may)
I know you knwo this but try to see and explane the V7 (#9 etc) at 3:57 as a DOMINANT chord with the alterations, that I call HMV (Harmonic Minor Dominat)... What I'm trying to say is that I dont see it as a A Harmonic Minor over D7#9 but more as a D Dominat witht the HMinor alterations... I know it's the same but it helps me know where I'm in the song, and where I'm going with it... Keep posting... thanks
Hey kevlar1818, exactly! That's what I keep hearing and it's definately messing with me. So even while playing in different modes over an A, you still use the A as the root?
hi.. may i know uhhmm. what mode do you usually use in blues, rock, jazz, and all kind of genre' in its most effective way.. and do you mind showing me a tab. coz my head gets round and round everytime i use my guitar and play. but when i play i just get it all missed up... what will i do marty... T_T and also, i know major scale. but when i think of modes i get out of the track, and get confused.. huhuhu can u help me.?? i will really appreciate it.. Thank you..
This is a fantastic vid-so much cool information, not just the main topic but all the little sneaky snippets, like the bit about the aeolian note vs the dorian note. Keep up the good work!!

Lots of people like to say "Modes are just the major scale on a different root", and it just messes with the beginning guitar player.
Think of modes of just as separate scales. Each mode offers a different FEEL to a piece of music:
Dorian: minor key - eerie, funky, latin-style
Aeolian: minor key - sad, somber, gritty
Mixolydian: major key - happy, funky, bluesy
Those are the three big ones. Pentatonic is key to all of them though, so learn that first if you haven't already!
Hope this helped.
