I love your approach and its also what i think is most musical from the beginning. what i also like about your drop 2 system approcach is using it in drop 3 and to play enclosures around their triads which i think i also got from you.
This is such an incredible lesson.. I’m admittedly one of those coming from rock but thanks to players like you and Frizz - SOMETIMES I think I’m “getting” jazz haha.. Thanks!
That was a really well put together lesson, thanks.Your 3 strategies, as you noted, can work separately or together. In my own playing I'm much more into using rhythmic phrasing and playing around the melody and chord tones rather than any kind of scalic thinking. Probably because I'm self taught and never had to pass any quizzes in music school about memorized scale names. My way of thinking about scales is basing everything on the major scale and just noticing which notes are not in that scale as I move from chord to chord. Much like you pointed out early on, just thinking of adding the G# to the C major scale for the E chord. I love your stuff and sorry I'll miss you this summer at PSGW. I'm teaching the last week.
@@AdamLevyGuitarTips Love "See what you can pull from the song" and also noticing the descending line inside the melody/chord infrastructure - great hot tip!
