Cecil is an amazing guitarist ❤

I've been working on this as the mixo dorian blues scale. This was helpful.

Nice phrases and explanations, with Cecil making it look easy. Cool guitar and tone (Ibanez JSM10).

I like Kenny Burrell, Grant Green, P Martino, well of course Wes & George B, Conti, Bruno, lots of talent out there., I just listen to some of their recordings for unlimited jazz blues ideas. But you sound great, even on your Strat.

one thing to keep in mind, these awe inspiring lines have their own compositional arc. in a live context they inspire and are inspired by the musical and non-musical environment. He's playing it to isolate a particular musical element. I can only imagine how amazing he sounds when vibing with a live rhythm section combined with his encyclopedic grasp of jazz harmony, melody and rhythm. bottom line: I'd love to see him with a rhythm section like Ron Carter, Roy Haynes, Christian Sands.

Aren’t those Ibanez AS-200’s fantastic? - I see the Blues in a similar fashion: combine Mixolydian with the Blues scale and you get 1-2-b3/3-4-b5-5-6-b7. Use b2-b6-7 in chromatic lines that resolve and that’s all 12 notes.
