Hello, when you show the overlapping Dmin pentatonic with the D mixolydian scale why do you refer to the E specifically as the 9th? I understand it is but isn’t it technically the 2nd? My theory is weak so I’m trying to wrap my head around these little things Cheers

[@rcolang1]

One of the best lessons in this topic on KZbin!!! The work you do to put the dots On The neck and play is outstanding!! Recently found you already you be had an impact!! Thank you

[@EdwardKowalski]

Hello Martin, I've been subed for a while now but never commented. This is the best explanation of mixolydian over IV I have ever seen and I've seen several. Love your playing, you have the blues! :)

[@GuitarBluesHury]

Hello Edward. Thanks for your comment!

[@ew6629]

That's a great lesson as I'm usually stuck in the pentatonic scale! Thanks much.

[@GuitarBluesHury]

Thanks!

[@Cliffolaus]

Thanks Martin! Always really enjoy your lessons and appreciate all the nice stuff you keep putting up on your Channel!!

I just found this video and the one on soloing over the V chord. Both really well done. There are so many approaches to this, including moving from the I, IV and V major pentatonic scales, playing the major pentatonic over the I and the minor over the IV and V, or simply playing all minor, as you point out, but your approach to weave the Mixolydian with the minor, is the best I have heard. Also, contained within the notes highlighted are the dominant 7 arpeggios, which I'm sure you discuss in another video. Great playing, terrific instruction. I've subscribed and looking forward to watching more. Thank you!

[@GuitarBluesHury]

Thanks! Yes, there are different approaches. Take al look to my channel. More info there. Thanks!

[@jukeboxjey5035]

Another genius lesson from you. Thank you very much!

[@austinhall2362]

Great again Marty

[@theaffiliate38]

I tried to follow other guys tutorials about making mixolydian-minor- major licks but I failed as they explain and play with confusion! You can't even follow them what they play. You have just changed my approach for making me experiment with mixolydian blues licks! The idea is to understand the concept and enjoy it! Thanks a lot for this tutorial as you have opened the door to my mixolydian adventure! I haven't checked all your other videos but do you have some extended mixolydian boxes tutorials??? I think you should be in guitar player magazine with such tutorial, Martin!

[@GuitarBluesHury]

Thanks for the comment. Glad that info helped you!

[@frankquinn1296]

Great lesson to unlock certain things without being over technical. Plenty of feeling as well.

[@ghalston5641]

Wow, how did it take me so long to find you on KZbin? Your explanations of how to get those blusey notes really helped me see, after being stuck in minor pentatonic with an occasional chord tone thrown in. Taking it to another level with this.

[@GuitarBluesHury]

glad to help! Thanks!

Love this lesson. Thank you so much. Would you be kind enough to do a future video on what approach or scale we could use over a static E7 sharp 9 "Hendrix" chord vamp. Thank you so much again.

Man, what a great lesson! Precious!!! Keep doing it 👌👌👌

Can we play d mixo add b minor pentatonic ? Or A minor pentatonic add d mixo on 4 chord

[@justaguy2365]

Why did you start in the 4th position?

[@SjaakShirly6559]

Never thought of this mode to play on the IV chord! Thanks, Is it possible to play A mixolydian on the IV?

[@GuitarBluesHury]

Thanks!

[@yjmsrv]

You should be playing A Dorian (which is the same scale as D Mixolydian) over the IV chord- you "think" in D Mixolydian though. A Mixolydian doesn't work well over the D7 because the D7 needs a C for it's 7th Degree and the A Mixolydian has a C# (which is it's major 3rd)- so no it's not possible to play A mixolydian on the IV- actually ANYTHING is possible- if it sounds good it is good- but from a chord to scale matching point of view- it won't sound great. The scales that work over each 7th chord in a blues progression are these when viewed as the scales from the tonic- Mixolydian (over the I) - Dorian (over the IV) - Ionian (over the V). But it's important to think of the notes as they relate to the chord being played- not to the tonic. So on the I (Let's say in A) chord you play A Mixolydian- on the IV chord you play D Mixolydian (A Dorian) and on the V chord you play E Mixolydian (A Ionian aka the A major scale). Then every note will always be right- but remember- most bluesmen will just play the A blues scale over the entire progression- doing it the "proper" way will sound more jazz influenced- but when you do it that way you can also hear the changes as they go by without any accompaniment. Hope this helps!

[@damonligaw5207]

@@yjmsrv wow. Thanks

[@roddiculousguitar]

It makes sense and goes over the chords well - but hard to make it sound bluesy... I'm trying hard to mix it with minor pentatonic and the A7/D7/E7 arpeggios. The journey continues... :)

[@GuitarBluesHury]

Good idea using arpeggios. Try to focus in major 3rd... that's the bluesy sound. Thanks!

[@JordanNicouleaud]

Very interesting but it seems to me that you are wrong when you show the sixth instead of the ninth at 4min46 right? and at 6min?

[@GuitarBluesHury]

Yes, you are right! My fault sorry! :)

[@JordanNicouleaud]

@@GuitarBluesHury it does not matter because the rest is really interesting ! :)

[@paulminorproductions]

To my ear, the minor 3rd of the IV chord, aka F, is a clam in a blues solo in A. The minor 3rd of the I (C) and the V (G) are good, but F is to be avoided. When you are playing it in the scale here, it sounds ok because it sounds like we are in the root key of D, but it doesn't work in A.

[@paulminorproductions]

@@PyraGiza your ears are processing the concept of "modal" music, a lifelong pursuit for some.

[@paulminorproductions]

@@PyraGiza Mixolydian is your friend on the IV.

[@broncojonnes]

Good shit

[@rrguitar1]

So basically, your taking the A minor pent scale and adding notes from the D mixo scale with it?

[@GuitarBluesHury]

Yes, A minor penta or D minor Penta (if you are playing over the lV chord) and add notes of mixo. You can try doing the same bit instead mixo you can use arpeggio 7th. Thanks!

[@rrguitar1]

@@GuitarBluesHury Thanks. So can't you essentially do the same for chords I and V, being that/if they are Dom 7 chords?

[@GuitarBluesHury]

Yes, you can do it! Thanks!

[@salsplace]

Great lesson. What about playing over the 5 chord?

[@GuitarBluesHury]

You can apply the same concept or you can add the arpeggio 7th. Here a video I did talking about that kzbin.info/www/bejne/mpSrn3RpfcqEY68 Thanks!

[@tonedowne]

Play the major scale of the I chord. If you want to think in pentatonic minor scales (I do), then play F# minor pentatonic (A major), over the E. When doing blues in A

[@GuitarBluesHury]

Yes, another way to think it. Thanks!

[@silasmiddeljans2682]

This changing of pentatonics is a way better approach because when you switch to the 4 chord the blues note is no longer b5 but a b9. With this approach you can jazz up the blues haha
