Hey gang! Leave it to me to make a mistake (or two) somewhere, and the main one that I found/heard in this lesson was when I was talking about the D7#9 chord and said it had a "Dorian tonality." That one is actually more of a Phrygian thing, but for whatever reason, my mouth said "Dorian." I think everything else is good-to-go, but I didn't notice this typo until after I posted the video and it bothers me that I said that, so that's why I'm trying to clear the air right now. I HATE making typos and mistakes. Thank you, drive thru! 🙂👍
I've been playing for 35 years and still learning something new all the time. This is great! Thank you brother! Love the way you lay it out and the practical examples.
Oz Noy is also crazy with substitutions. One thing I've always noticed about people that use subs a lot is they just "hear" the music differently than most of us do. I saw an interview with Larry Carlton where he talked about discovering substitutions through paying attention to all the similar notes within the chords and realizing he could use them for different things depending on the context. He said he would literally walk to school and think about that when he was just a kid. Some people just "get it". Guys like that are those that get it. Incredible minds.
I went to Musicians' Institute in September '81; Scott was already there with the March '81 class. So I not only got to sit in classes and visiting artist clinics with him, I got to watch him play quite a bit. I wasn't shocked at how his career took off over the years.
Thanks for taking the time to explain the pentatonic substitution approach. I've been playing since I was 16 and still struggle with matching chords and scales.
There was a record put out in the early 90’s. Henderson, Jeff Berlin, Lavitz and Steve Smith. One side studio second side live. I seem to remember it being called “Players” Mind blowing particularly the live side. I wish I could find it.
Great lesson! Thanks for citing your sources :) I've been learning the way Gambale teaches it, starting with the chord type and superimposing pentatonics, but keeping the pentatonic static and moving the chords really highlights it! Ironically, it reminds me of how Gambale teaches modes, where you keep the tonic static and adjust the intervals per mode.
Thanks David. I have always thought what scales to play over chords being played, I really think thats a big part of what holds me back. I should flip my perspective 180 degrees and I bet it would help a bunch. Thanks man
what an interesting lesson, Amazing and trans formative. I want to know about this concept especially the pentatonics under the chords. Fascinating Thanks David!
I’ve been getting into Jazz… but more as a means to give a more melodic feel to Blues, Rock and all forms of Music. Jazz is the King Genre of Resolves… and this gives Jazz its impact.
Thanks man I appreciate this 🙏 big time. Another door is opened, I hear what you were saying about that d minor scale over the C major 7, I'm just going to use that f note as a passing note into either the E or G note, landing on it is a little snarky 😅, but it works, I guess it's all in the context of one uses it. Take care man
Great summary: if you want to go further out into jazz territory using minor pentatonic over 7alt chords is a good hack. Ie Bb min pentatonic over G7alt. Worth noting you’re missing the 3rd of G7
David , this lesson was just a tad bit above my “ Pay -grade “ here , but after watching this through to the end I’m ready to do a huge “ Belly flop “ into the pool and maybe give it a try . Diversity is where some pretty intense and interesting stuff comes from . 😎👍. Thanks as always for sharing.
'David , this lesson was just a tad bit above my “ Pay -grade “ ' It totally doesn't have to be. The applies to basic, open position major and minor chords as well.
Years ago I went through a couple of VHS tapes of Scott Henderson (Produced by Don Mock) and I learned about the moving pentatonic concept. But when I listened to Scott Henderson's solos, I could not hear how his playing came from this. My biggest take-away from the videos was to listen to myself, and play the next thing based on what I played before.
Fantastic lesson. I've always used pentatonics over different chords/ with extra notes, but not really understood why it works, except that my ears liked it. Thanks heaps for making me understand why it works.🍻
Kind of forcing model tonality here within a stagnate support structure. The way I hear it, as long as you don’t clash with 3rds or 7ths of the texture you can get away with about anything providing you accent underlying chord tones more than non. Good stuff! Thanks. edit: I looked to see if you had a good vid on dominant blues. Does one exist?
Have a listen to Well To The Bone. There's some astounding guitar playing and he covers a lot of ground. More rock than jazz, he channels Hendrix, Beck and SRV and many others, but always makes it all his own.
yes a new "late night lesson!" it's 3:13 AM in France Thank You for all your videos, if you have time to answer, please which set up do you use for your videos? i hope it's not a weerd question i mean like a secret recepe.
Anyone need a good laugh, check out “too many guitars” off Dog Party. Then while laughing at the lyrics, get ready to fall off your chair during the solos at the end 😂
In the handout, what is the third tonality in the column on the left over the MAJOR 7 chord? [Something]5 Same question for the second tonality over the MINOR 7 chord... [Something]7
A lot of them are duplicates no? I mean the major 7 and minor 9 then the minor seven flat five and dominant 9th... probably more.. anyway nice subject. I kind of thought modes were kind of bs to make money at music schools but I have been playing with it and I think I may change my mind a little
Would be nice to see the fingering of some of these chords. This is presented like everyone already knows what you're talking about. A demonstration, not a lesson.

Scott Henderson is EvH SrV and Coltrane all in one!! He is my favorite fusion guitarist of all time

I used to have the MI handout. Absolutely blew my mind like everything Scott does. Great lesson, well done!
Great lesson, Dave! Scott is a master of substitutions! He was my intro to fusion guitar!
You should have a million subs, Dave.
Thanks for taking the time to explain the pentatonic substitution approach. I've been playing since I was 16 and still struggle with matching chords and scales.
This is the most helpful video I’ve seen in years. Thank you
Eye opening material, thanks Dave .💯✨🖋️

You can hear it on TH-cam, but it’s not available on the music streaming services
The Creeping Terror. One of my favorites to this day.
@@waynemiller6070 When I heard them play it live in the late 80s, that song had the title “Elvira, Mistress of the Dark”
Refreshing to come across a great channel with a great host. Thanks so much.😃
Thank you once again, DAVID ! Very eyeopening - will have to dive into this.
This is a great explanation of all the play possibilities over 7ths

Been a huge fan since Illicit…Scott is top shelf aka upper echelon! Great video…Thanks man
what an interesting lesson, Amazing and trans formative. I want to know about this concept especially the pentatonics under the chords. Fascinating Thanks David!
Holy crap - thats amazing, wow such a difference with the chord changes
Very cool!! A very long-time friend is a former LA studio musician and he spoke of using pentatonic substitutions for tritone subs.
Scott is the such a great fluid player. So elastic.
I love to see that you have Jean-Luc Ponty’s Fables up behind you on your wall 👍🏻

What a great video. Bro you’re one of the best players/instructors out there!
Playing guitar you never stop learning.
This was really eye opening!
Really cool lesson
One of my favorite albums from Scott is Tore down the house from 1997.
Fantastic lesson. I've always used pentatonics over different chords/ with extra notes, but not really understood why it works, except that my ears liked it.
Thanks heaps for making me understand why it works.🍻
I just subscribed, thanks for this great lesson!
That was amazing. Thank you for your work.
Great lesson thanks ❤
Thanks a lot Dave...excited lesson
Awesome stuff. Thanks!

Very interesting. Not a jazzy fan; but worth stepping out of comfort zone to try.

Thanks. Found on Spotify I will give it a listen
What a lesson! You gained a new subscriber. Thank you!
Good stuff man thanks for sharing
Great stuff
I've come to realise over very many years of playing, and mostly improvising, that no notes are wrong notes. It simply depends on how you phrase them.
Good contextualizing!

"It's a music based in fear. Why are they playing so quietly? What are they afraid of? Why are they playing the wrong notes?"
>proceeds to play Jazz Odyssey
Is that some kind of reference?
@@ganglestank Spinal Tap
The mighty Tap on point again😆😆😆
😂😂😂
So cool !
thanx a lot.....!!!!!!!!!!!!
lovely greetings from germany
Super lesson!
David you rock!
Thank You
Got the Tele for this one!
This is amazing!
What a fantastic video have a wonderful day also Monday was my friends birthday ❤😊
The first note he plays is after 5:00 fyi.. everything earlier is him talking about his history and Scott Henderson
I't's 4:30 AM and I'm watching this.
Where did you get that Floyd shirt ? I only wear Floyd t-shirts and that one looks awesome and unique.
Lesson starts at 4m35s
Anyone need a good laugh, check out “too many guitars” off Dog Party. Then while laughing at the lyrics, get ready to fall off your chair during the solos at the end 😂
Bill Nelson play ground:)
In the handout, what is the third tonality in the column on the left over the MAJOR 7 chord? [Something]5
Same question for the second tonality over the MINOR 7 chord... [Something]7
Funny, what you do here is that you do the opposite to what everyone else does ; Chords over the scale. Good thinking ! 👍
Hey i love your room looks simple and nice!
Crazy seeing 111k! I remember 5k!
Pat Metheny did a lot of pentatonic substitutions.
cool thanks
I took one of those pictures ❤
Is it more than just pinwheeling and making the Cm a 6 then a 2 and a 3?
When you are ready, you're teacher will come along
Scott is probably the greatest guitarist alive today.
Do any chords NOT work?
what is clinic, can somebody explain? im not native speaker
A lot of them are duplicates no? I mean the major 7 and minor 9 then the minor seven flat five and dominant 9th... probably more.. anyway nice subject. I kind of thought modes were kind of bs to make money at music schools but I have been playing with it and I think I may change my mind a little
New Tele?
First !

99%talk talk
....you guys talk too much, Man...shutup and play your guitar, FFS!
Sorry, I like to explain things when I teach.
It's rather important to understand what you're learning and why.
@@quantumbuddhist yeah, me too....hahahahahahaha ! Too serious fellas'!
Is this a lesson or a speech?
great lesson here! the photo of paper from 92 is blurry if i try to open it. would be great to have it more readable. tnx for share!
starts at 4:35
