There are some jazz guitar books with good scale fingerings. The Dennis Sandole Guitar Lore book comes to mind as well as the William Leavitt Modern Guitar series. There is a Joe Pass book ( The Joe Pass Method) that has fingerings. You can arrive at fingerings for the Lydian Augmented and Lydian Di...

On the previous LCC forum I posted several examples, from the Net, of some of the confusion about the Concept. Most of the time it seems that people grossly oversimplify it in their minds. This ignorance probably relates to the fact that there is so much chord/scale information available these days ...

I love his 'Practice Prayer', from his site( in the download section).

I’ve never heard of those Ron Miller books. This isn’t saying much. Despite owning several filling cabinets and bookcases full of jazz books there seems like an endless supply of new ones.Sometimes I wonder if I wasn’t better off the way I started : just learning from recordings! Well you’ve...

What scale books do you use?

Does anybody want to take a stab at analyzing the opening line of Herbie’s One Finger Snap?

It is not necessary for the scale to have a raised fourth at all. If my new official scale is 1b2467, what tonal order does it belong to?

BTW Go for Vol. I by all means!

It is in the works. Hopefully it is near completion.

The fellow that runs the site is aware of the spam and has already deleted quite a bit of it. Let’s hope there’s a way to stop it. It keeps getting weirder and weirder!

I don’t think it is necessary, for your purposes, to try to make the Emi7 chord a SMG. Since both Bm7 and Em7 belong to PMG VI, why not experiment with using the eleven member scales (see page 82 for a list) based on their Lydian Tonics? There are many choices but when you are first learning the C...

One of the great myths about the LCC, perpetuated my folks with only the most cursory knowledge of it, is that the Concept says the Lydian scale is ‘better’ than the Major scale or supplants it. The fact is that the Lydian scale exists in a state of vertical tonal gravity and the Major scale in ...
