Quick Riff: Oye Como Va & The Dorian Mode (Carlos Santana) How To Play Guitar Lesson Tutorial

[@myronsmith9495]

Gary has sewn together in 3 weeks decades of knowledge I had but lacked its musical practicality.. I completely understand modes now.. I could’ve told you what was in each scale but it didn’t make sense to me why there were multiple scales/ modes. I didn’t understand emphasizing the root. Gary fixed that. I understand patterns now in a whole new visual way! I’ve been studying music now completely differently.. I really could go on!!.. Thanks Gary !

[@PowMusic]

that's awesome to hear Myron! Glad it's clicking for you 🎸👏

[@CROSSFIRE19604]

Great to see you put this song in a language and scale we can understand. Great lesson!

[@michaelmunday6808]

Dorian always made more sense to me on the fret board to consider it as the aeolian scale with the only difference being the 6th is raised. In any minor progression that contains a major IV or a minor ii immediately think and explore the Dorian mode

Your a good teacher watching from philippines🤘

[@PowMusic]

This a a re-upload, cuz I left a few things out when I posted last night so sorry to double post! If you watched it already, this version will have a few more insights and other cool details. Thanks for watching!! 🎸🤘

[@BriceStuart]

You're lessons are awesome! I've been practicing the modes for a few months now and I've been struggling to make them sound useful and musical rather than just going up and down the various scales. had the riff down before the lesson was even over! love your videos, keep up the awesome work you do! thanks!!

[@PowMusic]

brice stuart thanks you! That’s the goal for me - to help you to use the shapes to make music and understand them in relation to actual music :)

[@tableken9143]

Hi. I'm a guitar player that always learn little different things in licks ... learn ... and forget !!! ... that is the best thing to do when I learn something new ... it's a Jazz approach according to a famous guitar Jazz player ... I hear one song over and over and over .... and influences appear when it's time to play .... mixed !!! ... so ONE thing that brought me here is the software you use on your video .... it's AMAZING !!! just to seeing where it goes in the fretboard ... is just a choreographic way to get timbers out of the neck. My main REQUEST, of course, if you agree, is to ..... my heart is stumbling .... wait .... wait ... ok ... Can You "describe" tone-wise with this software ... just like all those videos you do .... the song So Excited (The Mocambo LIVE version) by the great SRV ???? Can you? Can You? ... My brain need food from this song ... you know ... those little details that make this song ... hard to replicate some SRV expresions ... I don't care the tone, I do care is his pure blues background ... in motion .... all at once. It's a book of HOW TO the whole song !!!!!

[@Cougar139tweak]

You've been my Drunken Guitar master for almost a year now and you don't even know it Speed 0.25 :D

[@OkRelic_3388]

Is that a program for the computer that has the active fretboard on it? That’s very cool. I really love your videos and can’t wait to see more in the future. Thanks bro👍👍

[@indeviant]

[@PhilippeRebuffel]

Merci !

[@mayito714]

Santana used Dorian Scale on black Magic woman too.

[@lancekeller23]

The ninth is the second in an octave higher is my understanding.

[@stevenaboud1508]

I really like how you introduced this Dorian / Oye Como Va combination. How can I purchase the song tab without getting registered with Patreon. Thank you. Steven Aboud

[@peterpigna9505]

Ottima lezione

[@djsmartmonkey]

Neat

[@RichOren]

Who made that guitar? How do I get one? :)

[@thornmen8187]

You said flat third, the 6th and the ninth what is it?

[@leonmartinez5752]

Do you teach with videos

[@thornmen8187]

We don't understand the number or flat please send me the diagram so that we can read.

[@Cougar139tweak]

@ 4:46 :D

[@anunripecantaloupe340]

Video is cool but not really helpful or explanatory, especially for beginners or light intermediates. Your first scale diagram says A Dorian Mode (G major scale). What does that mean? How can we find the A Dorian within the major scale? May seem self explanatory to you but others could use it.

[@PowMusic]

thanks for the feedback! The Dorian mode is always the second mode of the major scale/diatonic scale, so the note A, is the 2nd scale degree of G major. So whatever the second note of G major is, would be the root of the Dorian mode that has the same notes as G major. In this case, A is the second scale degree in G major....so A dorian mode is the relative dorian mode of G major. Same notes, but different tonic...and therefore different intervals relative to the new tonic.

[@anunripecantaloupe340]

@@PowMusic thanks for the response! Rereading, I sounded a bit harsh so I was probably frustrated at my own inability. Thank you for the tips.

[@RodStewart_Geek]

Not all videos can be for all skill levels. Constantly catering to beginners makes videos overly long and handicaps intermediate and advanced players. Sometimes you have to help yourself in this world.

[@tomblaze2]

Just found this after the black magic women tutoriak

[@joeStigs]

Tito Puente song

[@nevis6747]
