Hey
A1: You got some terms mixed up mate, the song cannot be in the key of "A". The song can be in the key of A major. In that case A major pentatonic will sound logical, and A minor pentatonic bluesy. Think of a key as a collection of notes (and chords) that you can play over, it will be easier. I suggest reading Andrew's lessons about scales, and how chords are built, it wil lbe a lot clearer. A:It doesn't necessary mean so, because A minor pentatonic can be a part of at three different modes: Aeolian, Dorian and Phrygian. All these modes have notes from A minor pentatonic. If you have more questions, I'll be glad to answer mate. Cheers Hey helpful GMC dudes and gals :-), Lets assume a song is in the key of A. Can I play lead with the A minor pentatonic or the A major pentatonic, or is one more 'correct and more pleasant' than the other? Question 2: If the minor pentatonic sounds good in a progression, does that mean the the minor scale (all the 7 notes) will sound good also? If you understand my questions :-) and can answer them, that would be very appreciated.. Thanks all! -------------------- - Ivan's Video Chat Lesson Notes HERE
