Very cool Aminn–awesome solo to say the least 🙂 About a year ago I played it on the Alto with the guys here locally, but they were in the key of D, not E like Johnny’s band is here. For me on the Alto it meant playing in the Key of B (another important key on Tenor, guitar players love playing in A). That’s why it helps so much to think of our scales/any scale in terms of the numbering system/intervals–if we know those things, then we can take a solo and transpose/play it in any key we wanna play.
Yee ha! Hot doggety! So gonna hit the E scale up next and feel like a sharp dressed man. Thanks for the lead, Johnny, and spinning wheels @Ammin Ellis
Have to do a number on that.
Hi @Jeff so i figure band is in E we gotta play one step above, being F# pentatonic scale
If you’re gonna rock it in D, you’ll need the E scales then
To practice C scales you’ll need a backing track in A#?
