width210 height160 div I have HEAPS of books on guitar.... Ive
spent thousands over the years.... Ive been playing guitar since I
was 9 years old. Im now 47.... I can honestly say this is the first
book to show me how to challenge my ears and play over basic
changes vi ii V I. Ive read some other reviews of this book and I
guess its because we all approach things different ways... that
some people have said this book is crap.br br I too was a little
confused at first when tetrachords were mentioned. The word chord
is there but the notes are played as a scale. When these scales are
played over a single chord, the tension and resolution thing is
totally understood. Playing an F note over a vamping Cmaj7 chord
sounds pretty bad. But persisting with it and really listening to
it, the tension and uneasyness starts to sound like a colour or
shade, then resolve that F to E and bingo... the tension resolves
and you can appreciate the F like a subtle taste in a fine
wine.....br br This book goes beyond play Ionian over Cmaj7, play
Aeolian over Am7, play Dorian over Dm7, play Mixolydian over
G7.....br br Im only up to Lesson 5 in this book but so far Ive
really got a lot from it. Singing a Cmaj7 scale while playing vi ii
V I is pretty amazing because the one scale sounds SO different
depending on what chord is being played underneath it. The scale
SOUNDS different!br br Looking forward to the rest of the
