I forget the exact name, since of course, im no good guitarist, but it some kind of minor scale.

The added blues notes are incredibly evident though, but i seem to like the blues scale better then the minor pentatonic. Not just cause its the minor pentatonic + a note, but that extra note just kicks so much ***.

That Blues riff is pretty sweet too. Who cant like that riff.

Speaking of the blues riff... NP: Bring it on Home

[QUOTE=magicbus]Crossroads works with the A minor pentatonic, but in some parts it also switches to A major.[/QUOTE]

Wel thatll answer my questions :lol:

id totally rep you, but am sortta restrained

[QUOTE=Jam2Me]I saw Gov't Mule last night, it was an unbelievable show, 3 and a half hours of Mule tearing up the stage. It was the last stop of their Deja Voodoo Winter tour. A guitarist from RANA Scott Metzger also jammed with Warren for a bit.[/QUOTE]

That's awesome man.

[QUOTE=Distant Echoes]Wel thatll answer my questions :lol:

No problem. And I'm pretty sure Clapton does throw in the blues notes like you said, he does often. Do you know what the major pentatonic is?

Such a wanna be BB King.

[QUOTE=thickasabrick]i'm pretty sure Clapton just uses the minor pent or blues scales, maybe with a little extra notes for flavour. you can't really tell but Gilmour also uses a lot of those scales, he doesn't sound as bluesy as Clapton though.[/QUOTE]

You can't tell that Gilmour is bluesy because of all the synthesizers and other effects that Pink Floyd use, but if you strip it down to just the guitar, you find a conservative blues guitar.

What makes Gilmour stands out is the use of regular blues guitar licks in an out-of-the-blues music, like Floyds.

It's the same thing with rock 'n roll. The best rock solos are basically blues solos used on another context, that being rock.

I've also heard a blues solo over some reggea, and it sounds awesome.

[QUOTE=magicbus]No problem. And I'm pretty sure Clapton does throw in the blues notes like you said, he does often. Do you know what the major pentatonic is?[/QUOTE]

Yeah, but im having a hard time actually remembering it, and putting into effect as easily as a scale that can be barred

[QUOTE=Distant Echoes]Yeah, but im having a hard time actually remembering it, and putting into effect as easily as a scale that can be barred[/QUOTE]
Here's a trick so you'll be able to bar both:

You start the A minor pentatonic on the fifth fret correct? Well the major pentatonic is the same pattern moved back 3 frets, in this case it'd be started on the second fret. So this way you could basically take all your licks, move them back 3 frets, and you'd be in major.

The trick is to learn both the minor and major patterns all the way up the neck, and then be able to interchange the notes without having to keep jumping back frets.


And to Slowhand, very insightful. You always make good points. :thumb:

You know exept for the Dead songs on Skeletons From the Closet I think pretty much all Greatful Dead is underrated.

Er, I wouldn't say everything the Grateful Dead did. But much of it is.

Yeah, allmusic giving it 2 stars. WTF

I'd five it a 4.5/5 - 5/5

I wish I'd just gotten the Golden Road box set, since I'm probably going to end up with most/all of those albums.

That's very true. I never really realized how bluesy Gilmours solos were until I played them on my own, without any of his effects or the rest of the band playing.

I've never heard Shakedown Street. You're saying it's not a bad album? (not directed towards Slowhand.)

has anyone got the doors box set?

[QUOTE=jpjrulestheworld]Shakedown Street don't get no love :([/QUOTE]


I just don't get Shakedown St, I like it, but not as much as their earlier stuff. It seems kinda disco-y, was it a parody of disco or was it just their version of it like Floyd's "We don't need no education"?

Oh man, you just n00bed it. Pink Floyd's "Another Brick In the Wall Part 2" is the song name.

1.) Shakedown Street the album and song were released before The Wall.

2.) It isn't a parady, it's a Funk influenced song. Or Disco, but Funk is the main basis of Disco.

AIM, if that's cool. Sn is lunch998.

Did Derek and the Dominos do any other good cds besides Layla and other assorted love songs? I don't know I got into them last week.

I don't think they did any other studio albums. I heard Clapton did this project hoping it wouldn't be popular, and ending up making arguably one of the greatest rock songs ever.

I recall posting a bunch of the songs from two albums a couple of months ago, but all of you must have just disreguarded their presence.

I don't remember you posting any. The only samples I remember ignoring were the Dr. John ones, and that was because I was in the middle of Plane Crash on Warts and All. I had a valid reason.

Well, not at all actually. But sure, I guess.
