      @darthvader2433 Před 5 lety +1

      Well since you are in the key of C, a few extensions are possible on the D7. Like the #11 as you mentioned since its part of the melody. In the backing track they're using the 13 as well.
      like wise the 9 would also work.

    • @TheLepesmeZ
      @TheLepesmeZ Před 5 lety +4

      D7b5 is the solution. :)
      You can play the Whole Note Scale to get it thought at solo so the notes makes: Rout, 9, major 3rd, b5, #5, dominant 7th.
      Good Luck :)

    very nice recording ; I would have appreciated a little change in the drumpart : ride instead of brushes, in order to get some variation of intensity !! very clean work anyway ! thank you !!

    • @guitareimprovisation
      @guitareimprovisation  Před 5 lety +1

      Yes. My new backing track will be like that, but the brushes are great for pedagogy work : very easy to follow. The ride cymbal sounds more "real jazz" but can be hard for intermediate players. czcams.com/video/jdEGVdgpSik/video.html
