CLICK HERE TO VIEW "MIN7-STACKING TRIADS"

CLICK HERE TO VIEW "DEVELOPING IDEAS IN A BLUES PROGRESSION"

CLICK HERE TO VIEW "INTRO TO THE DIMINISHED SCALE"

Material includes:

"Blues With Brains" Pt I

The material is blues based using pentatonic scales and variations to deal with the chord changes. I touch on the 1/2-1 dim scale as well, approaching it with variations on pentatonic ideas. I also talk about stacking triads to form lines. Throughout the lesson I demo the ideas w/ play along tracks (included) that open doors to more complex harmony. The lesson concept's are strong on melodic content and connecting ideas with the aim at expanding blues based vocabulary. 564.4 MB

Play-along tracks are included for practicing all of the concepts introduced in the BWB's lessons.

BWB Pt II

Picks up where Pt I left off. More blues vocabulary, ideas and concepts as well as expanding the chord progression beyond the typical 3 chords. The complete scales for the I and IV chords are also introduced. 683.1 MB

BWB Pt III

Takes a look into the jazz harmony using the blues as a launching off point. The complete scales for all of the changes are introduced and wrap up the first part of the series. 592.4 MB

Blues Changes

Covers the chord progressions and voicing's from the "Blues With Brains" series. (Pt's I-III) I also add some new material to the progressions with other voicing's and substitutions. Unlike any of the previous BWB lessons, this deals only with the chords. 466 MB

BWB Pt IV (PAF)

This lesson takes it to another level. It's a minor blues with a bridge that has some twists and turns including different chord changes in the blues progression and a bridge. The analysis gives you some pentatonic shortcuts for "Altered" and "Lydian b7" sounds and some easy ways to negotiate the II-V changes in the bridge. Includes a chart and a play-along track. 433.9 MB

BWB Pt V (Advanced Ideas)

This lesson will give you some unorthodox approach's to dom 7th chords and some unusual twists and turns (II-V subs) on your way to the IV chord. TAB and standard notation doc's are included. 267.4 MB

Voicings

This is one of my favorites. This lesson will greatly expand your chord vocabulary with a solid and easily understood "horizontal approach" to diatonic harmony. It may be an eye opener for some, it was for me. TAB and standard notation doc's are included. 282.4 MB

Modes of the Major Scale and More

This lesson is all about the fundamentals. I often find that there is some confusion regarding this material. A really effective way to learn this stuff is from root to root. Every example starts on A so you have to learn the defining note(s) of each scale/mode. I also cover the tension tones to really outline/define the sound of each scale/mode. Every one has it's own sound and characteristics. I cover the 7 modes of the major scale, the melodic minor scale, the lydian b7 scale, the altered scale and the diminished scale's. I find my self using these sounds to cover most harmonic situations. 12 play-along tracks are included. 468.1 MB

One Chord Grooves-Dom 7th & Min 7th

This material is designed to open doors and present different options when playing over one chord grooves. Using pentatonic scales, triads, substitutions, chord scale relationships and other devices you will be using some of this material on your next gig as well as having new approach's to study. 2 play-along tracks are included. 575.3 MB
