Awesome lessonI I have incorporated many of your techniques into my playing! Thanks! Joey Vaughan "World Blues Attack"

Melodic minor scales over V7 chords -great way to break out of the old white bread myxolydian sound. As Joe rattles off all those possible chords to play over however, it depends in what context the the chord is moving, e.g.; to use C melodic minor over an F7/9/13-type chord the F should be a non-resolving dominant chord; if the F7 is resolving back to the "1" chord (C) then the Db melodic minor scale works best. Emily Remler and Don Mock both explain these concepts very clearly in their videos.

BTW Joe is one of the finest musicians and human beings that has ever graced us with his presence.

@FuchsFran Exactly...

[brunostung]

All that said, thats just what the theory books say, and what teachers reccomend, and I for sure use and so does everyone. BUT like FuchsFran said you can still use Lydian dominant over a resolving dominant chord. It sounds awesome too. thats the sweet thing about dominants, pretty much anything goes.

@zebopper You Got the right idea. Wrong notes. C melodic over F7 creates F Lydian dominant, theory books say that when its not a resolving chord to use this scale. That is correct. Just one note I think you prob just weren't paying attention to the notes you typed. C is not the I chord of F7, Bb is. The scale you said to play instead of Lydian dominant was melodic minor from the Db, we would move that down to B.

This isnt correct either, you play Gb melodic for F7 giving altered scale.

[FuchsFran]

@zebopper What you are saying is theoretocally correct but you could use C melodic minor over an F7/9/13 resolving to a C without any problem. You can use a lot of different scales over dominant chords, it all depends on how you resolve the frase and your intention and conviction while playing.

How are Joe's eyes - does anyone know? BTW supercool stuff. I'm oft to practice.

[highintel]

waaaaaay out of my league.

[monkeysbum999]

Just learn the chords in each scale position by heart ,then add the three remaining scale tones and get used to seeing c melodic minor as seven different chords with scale or interval possibilities.It takes time but it,s not as hard as many believe.For example position seven yields b super locrian ,just see bm7b5 as the chord and practise seeing and playing any flat interval in terms of b,introducing them gradually as scale fragments or chords.It,s the learning of these intervals that is key.

@mattpolofka Certainly not for beginners, I wouldn't teach this stuff to my beginner/intermediate students but it's great for the advanced players.

I had a teacher once who taught like this. Just played absurd licks that I couldn't catch if to save my life. Then a simple explanation. It's not the most effective way of teaching, but it can work, it just forces the student to take more responsibility.

Was kinda looking for major pentatonic stuff, but good video anyway.
