Actually Richie these postbop lessons be blowing my mind so...up to you...

Great lesson.Keep on with it.The superimposition along with the modes you can derive is great and helps me out with the mental gymnastics required to apply the theory on the spot.Thanks:)

This lesson is gold.

I don’t mind these post-bop oriented lessons at all. On the contrary, they are nice additions to the BGIS course. I may have to archive them for further study later on, but that’s all right.

All The Things you are is the tune! Woody Shaw definetly mastered playing "out" but really was "in"

Post bop baby.

great playing using only that b6 scale over ATTYA, that takes some serious work especially on the guitar.

@herculesrockefeller8969 3 years ago

My love of all things Abercrombie brings me to your wonderful playing and that tree of knowledge you call your mind. Thank you Ritchie.

Triads and Pano's , Harps...are great ... should only be used accordingly... nice lesson...

This is actually the major pentatonic that you would extract from the harmonic major. I love this mixed major-minor flavour of the major third and the flatted sixth together. Thanks for posting!

Oh, my widdle head!

When convenient, please clarify whether and how one could use the major flat 6 pentatonic to play over V alt 7 (as opposed to bII7 (= its flat 5 sub)...in your example, please explain how to play over E7 of some flavor, as opposed to Bb7#11, as you did show)...thank you very much...this was excellent!

Sometimes I use a tetratonic scale by dropping the 7th. It sounds different, but similar, and I often just use it as a means of being more cognizant when I’m playing. Too, it makes ur playing sound more angular. (It’s hard to drop the 7th and play a solo lol!)
