Melodic Minor Modes
(14 Apr 09)
Example licks
I've recorded two examples for each chord which contain both in and out notes and have played them very slowly, so they'll sound strange as the out notes are being held a lot longer than they should, but I've also recorded a quick blues to give a brief idea of how I'd use these ideas in an improvisational context.
You'll notice that I use a blend of traditional blues phrases and ideas mixed in with the more fusion styles. This has become my preferred way of playing a blues over the years, although I do have a choice of keeping it more traditional or going completely out the window. I'd like all members of Ibreathe to have that choice too, so give these modes a try!
The lines for each chord, two per chord:
