No whale bone to pick with you over this great tutorial! I love all your books! They are awesome guides to anyone aspiring to play jazz and improve one’s skills. I also like the connecting TH-cam videos that add the audible and visual dimensions to your books.
Just as a coincidental footnote - earlier this evening i was listening (gratefully!) to a Charlie Rouse solo on Well You Needn't (Monk live recording somewhere, we joined in wife's car near the beginning of tenor solo). He was so wonderfully melodic within Monk's meloverse, including lots of whole tone motives, wild double times and rhythmic quirks that echoed Monk's ideas. I've always thought he was a great member of Monk's quartets (as was Johnny Griffin) but this particular performance really nailed it for me at this point in my life. And then i came home and found your vid on whole tone scales! Will you please stop reading my mind? :-^) lym !
Great timing-just started learning the whole tone scale! (which may also be called the ‘baleen’ scale. sorry-subtle Cetacean reference-I worked on a whale watch boat one summer in college! 🐳)
Thanks again, Jeremy! Really interesting perspective. Since the whole tones can be used with the neighbor tone to create exotic V7 motives, what can you tell us about spicing up our iim7 chords to blend in? Whale on, bro !!!
It's worth pointing out that the augmented scale has two augmented triads that are either a 1/2 step or a minor third apart, depending on your perspective. There are, of course, a lot of other interesting intervals in the augmented scale (not to preempt another video at some other time...).
I love the whalebone scale! It’s funny I discovered the augmented scale myself at some point and I didn’t know it has that name. Are there examples of players using that scale? How would it be used? Thanks Jeremy!
Weird, I used to get "wholesome scale". I shut off autocorrect because I got tired of correct or misspelled words being changed to words that didn't make sense. I decided typos are an acceptable compromise. I always think of Sunshine Of My Life, with that scale... and Monk too, and Star Trek.

As always, I have a whale of a time watching your excellent tutorials. Tx!
I love the way Tatum uses whole tones for his voicings.

Great tutorial- no bones about it! 💙
Thanks for the video! Very informative

Very whale done 😅 I liked the half-steps below the triad notes, I'll practice that

Whale, those were good tips. Now I know about the “whole bone scale”

Great new video, Jeremy. It will take me a whale to chew on this bone! 😂

"Whalebone Boogie": left hand ostinato (R 3 b7 or R b7) + right hand=jam on Siskind wholetone patterns. Sounds like a whale of a time.😎😵💫😎
my wife's family has a cottage on Nantucket called whalebone cottage - with a real whale bone artifact.
A whale of a video on the whole tone scale!
Whalebone was the name of a niche magazine out in Montauk, Long Island. A place where I'm sure you can see whales and their bones.
