I’m trying to internalise these scale patterns at the moment, this is so much more rewarding than just running troughs the shapes and it helps build some phrasing. Your lessons are really great. Thanks for this😃👍
Rick, played this song (and solo groove) in a smooth jazz band I was in a while back. Although I fudged my way through the solo loop using mostly my ear training and limited sophomore knowledge of scales and theory, you really helped clear up what I was attempting to do. Thank you for this tasty lesson on the “same position” approach to tackling duel chord solo loops. I’ll be woodshedding this idea in each position on the fretboard for the next few days I suppose. PS: Hope you enjoy your recent cruise ship gig! ...Ernest in Lexington, KY
awesome, glad to hear I could help you in you soloing over this great tune. Cruise gig was awesome, check out my video at the north pole if you havent seen it. Doing another stint coming up in December in South Africa/Namibia, looking forward to that!
I like the chances on the Donny Hathaway version he puts transitional chords between the "I" & "vi" of this song and between the "V11" and the minor "iv" on the interlude section.
I enjoy some of your lessons, for me if you name the intervals (mode degrees) that your targeting over the changes I would find so much helpful, instead of just saying shifting note, I don't know what your shifting or targeting? Cheers
Very cool Rick. I'm wondering why this didn't pop up on my screen, seeing as how I'm a subscriber, but at least I found it. Hey Rick, from what you're teaching in this lesson, it's easy to imagine you playing straight up jazz guitar. Perhaps you do on occasion. Just saying....Thanks.
I hear you Rick. You certainly could sit in for a jazz guitarist if they called in sick. No problem. Arpeggios and octaves can cover a lot of ground. Thanks.
It would help if you would play each note of the dorian and mixolydian scale, SLOWLY, for those who do not know them. Personally, I am going to find these modes and memorize them. Also, I need to learn the aolean, locrian, ionia and farigean scales.
+Brian Burney well Dorian is the scale of choice for minor 7 chords in most situations. mixolydian works well over a 7sus chord ( the 2nd chord in the video) just don't lean too heavy on the major 3rd
@@TastyGuitarcom Thanks for the reply. It's bits of info like that, that help so much. Do you have a video discussing which scales work best over certain chords? Thanks again. Really like the channel.

SICK & slick!! I wish, I could …;-))
Your solos always seem to have an element of jazz which in my opinion spices up your sound even when playing over a simple progression!!!!🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
GREAT LESSON, JUST DISCOVERED AND LIKED, OF COURSE. HUGS FROM BRAZIL
Thank you!
Having just watched, this feels really useful. I'll be revisiting and pressing that back-space button a lot.
Super useful skill Tim, and you must learn to do it all over the neck
I really like the concept of staying in 1place for 2 different chords. .and shifting in nice stages. Thanks !

Steve Douglas thanks Steve! I dabble in some jazz occasionally but certainly wouldn't call myself a jazz player

I would like to se a Guitar Tutorial on this song based on the Donny Hathaway version.

How do you know to play the Dorian or Mixolydian over those chords? That's always confused me.
