Your talking pace is much easier than all online tutors. Subscript is better managed too. Soon to be member.

Hi Lynden great video by the way what i do is in my scale practice is play a major pentatonic then the relevant minor pentatonic & then I just add a sharp or flat 4 to the minor pentatonic scale to give me the relevant blues scale!

[@lyndenblades]

That's a great idea! 🎷🎷🤝🤝😎😎

[@garytrent1]

Nice video man , my grandfather gave me one of his alto sax, my mouth hurt so bad lol , so I tend to pick the most practical option so I can suffer and be happy because I’m getting better, and your video is one of those !

Brilliant Lynden, your lessons are so inspiring! I've 'loitered at the improvisation door' for years, not really knowing how to enter - you showed me the way in!

Great job with the information aloha Mundo Hawaii

[@lyndenblades]

Wow! Hawaii how cool is that! Thank you and hello from the UK 🤝🤝🎷🎷😎😎

[@kooky74]

Hello. Nice licks. Strating on the blue note, 4th and 7 th are always the best for a blues song ❤. Thx

[@lyndenblades]

Glad you like them! 🤝🤝🎷🎷😎😎

[@fabianocerri]

Great!!!!!!

[@lyndenblades]

@@fabianocerri thank you so much 🤝🤝🎷🎷😎😎

[@martineguest5378]

Thank you so much Lynden for your simple to understand videos. I am keen to practise your blues scales licks on my newly acquired soprano. Do you have videos for the soprano?

[@lyndenblades]

You’re welcome and I’m so happy that they’re useful to you. I don’t have a tutorial on soprano at the moment but it’s on the list 🎷🎷🤝🤝😎😎

[@georgesnge6096]

Thanks again , should I take home that to improvise on a C major backing track , I should use D blues scale ?

[@lyndenblades]

Hi George, no that won’t work. However if you played an A minor blues scale over a C major backing track that would work. In this video the backing track is set to D minor because we are working on a blues scale in D. 🤝🤝🎷🎷😎😎

[@georgesnge6096]

Thanks got you 🙏🏾

[@BassNSax628]

Brilliant video Lynden. Is there a tenor version coming up?

[@lyndenblades]

Yes there is, that’s my next video to make 🤝🤝🎷🎷😎😂

[@georgesnge6096]

Thanks a lot Lynden , your videos are very helpful 🙏

[@lyndenblades]

Thank you George 🎷🎷🤝🤝😎😎

[@gasthilbert3136]

Hello Lynden, What backtrack key should we look for when playing the D Blues Scale? In general backtracks on KZbin are in Concert C so we have to look for Concert F key. Is that right?

[@lyndenblades]

Hiya, thanks for the question and yes, you’re right it’s concert F 🤝🤝🎷🎷😎😎
