Serie: Andrew D. Gordon Piano

The Blues Scale by Andrew Gordon is a very important book because of the nature of the blues scale and how it is used to improvise in many styles of contemporary music.

Inside both the Blues scale and relative minor Blues scale are explained in detail and how they are used either separately or together in the patterns for each style.

Each of the 20 grooves in this book contains over 150 patterns in total, using notes solely from the blues scale. Each of the 20 grooves utilizes a chord progression that is commonly used for that style of music.

The audio files contain recordings of all the blues patterns that are notated in the book recorded along with a rhythm section of Piano, Organ, Guitar, Bass and Drums and on certain grooves Percussion. Also included are extended 2-3 minute play-a-long mp3 files of all 20 grooves enabling you to practice playing the blues patterns or creating your own for an extended period of time.

• Pop
