    Very correct. But CC was thinking more as a substitute half dim arpeggio from the third of the chord.( Bm7b5 over G7). Also he would do only downstrokes.

    Amazing! I have a doubt: When u say “over dominant chord”, are u meaning just over the V chords in a blues or this works over all chords in blues? (I7 - IV7 - V7)?

  • @jazzguitarwithandy

    @jazzguitarwithandy

    3 жыл бұрын

    Yes, you can apply it to each chord in a blues. Just depends what colours/intervals you want to go for. I mean a later view would be to use things like Lydian dominant on the IV chord but with this chord tone approach it is more about the intervals to go for on a certain chord type.

    It sure didn’t, it’s not a system I’ve used. Analyse a lot of his music though and these areas of the guitar keep coming up in his soloing. For a lot of people that makes it quite accessible.
