Soloing Over The Chord Progression

[@jayv6315]

The first lick sounds like Mcdo hahaha Lovin' it

[@guitarchill9229]

Same notes so its true

[@stephencampbell2735]

Haha ikr

[@TomoFujitaMusic]

Yes! Thanks for noticing! Great phrase!

[@hijay8501]

Lmaoo yup

[@pilomusiko]

[@BobGnarley.]

I really like this chord progression. I been stuck in a pentatonic rut and most progressions dont really inspire me to break out of it but with this one I can imagine some lead that isn't pentatonic

[@TomoFujitaMusic]

Thank you! Lovey chord progression! One of my student told me that he likes "Misty" I said.. that song is too long! Lets play shorter! This one you can play simple!

[@cuckmasterflex9106]

Which scale could you use over this progression?

[@TomoFujitaMusic]

@@cuckmasterflex9106 Eb Major Scale, Triads, Altered scale, melodic minor, 7th arpeggios...

[@mickm8028]

See your pentatonic as a frame to add other notes to.

Tomo, check out this progression I invented: Dbm7(add 11), Dmaj7(add 9), F#m7#5 and Dmaj9(add 13). I built it using the Japanese scale so that’s why there’s Db to D.

[@TomoFujitaMusic]

[@pjr7613]

I'm working on getting better at determining the keys of progressions. It seems like this one is in Eb, based on one of the comments, but wouldn't the chords "fit" Ab better? Specifically the Bb-7. Wouldn't that be a minor V7 in Eb? How do you decide to make that chord minor?

[@TomoFujitaMusic]

You can follow those chords! I use ii V jazz phrase over Bb-7 Eb7 into AbMaj7... really fun chord progression.

Oh I just realized that he must be in Music College giving a lesson to one of his students, who may be playing the rhythm chords ‘live’, opposite Tomo. Not filmed here. Tomo is probably obliged to wear a mask because of ‘College Rules’ during Student Lessons, or some such. It’s just a hunch, so I can’t be sure. Wow !!!
