Dickey Betts made terrific use of the Dorian scale, as well as Mixolydian. I taught five summers for a program called Day Jams, and the instructional guitar book they put together called Dorian scale “the Carlos Santana secret scale.” Good description. And Jerry Garcia was an avid player of both Dorian and Mixolydian. The connection is, all three of their bands were at the forefront of the Jam Band culture. Dorian scale opens up that minor pentatonic to more ex- pressive playing, as does Mixolydian, And a bit of purple owsley probably helped, too.
I actually taught at Dayjams for 2 summers as it was a really cool camp! I loved how the camp encouraged kids to write their own songs even if they have never done so before! :)
Great a new term for me "broken thirds". Been using broken thirds just never knew it had a name. BTW Modes Unleashed has really helped me in my musical journey. Thanks Griff!
Great lesson. I’ve been trying to incorporate Dorian flavours into my playing as Angus young does it on the likes of some live versions of Riff Raff. Bending the 6th up a semi tone to the minor 7th is such a great sound
Great lesson. Love the Broken Third tip. I had never heard of that, and it really works! Thanks for that. Subscribed and Liked. I will check out your lessons.
@larrypower8659 LOOKING FOR BACKING TRACKS (Dorian and Mixolydian). Anyone have some YT links? Did you have backing tracks for Dorian and Mixolydian scales? I have been playing for years, but just started to learn scales and modes. I love Dickey Betts, Santana and especially Garcia.

Nice lesson! Just applying this to harmonica
Thanks 👍
GH is a badass. His Full Acces has a lifetime of lessons. It is endless. I am actually a decent guitar player now thanks to GH. Thanks so much!

I know as 3th jump, because you're always jumping into a 3th interval
Great video! Warren Haynes is also an awesome player that uses the Dorian mode a lot.
dude you are too cool; super helpful on tricks for playing lead
Thanks for the advice! Super helpful in understanding when to use this mode!
Thanks for this lesson video. Now I know how to use dorian mode.

Thanks boss
7:39 damn…
Thanks Griff! I have learned the different modes, the problems I have is ‘when to apply them’. Any suggestions would be great.
The chords ( progresion) will tell you when to play which mode, listen carefully to chords
Is 10:08 Riders on the storm sound? may not be exactly the song- I know Ray was pretty schooled
👌
Hahaha
LOL
I got a shirt "GET BIG OR DIE TRYING" (Big means Strong, not Fat, of corse)
