Great topic and lesson David, I like the "In" and "Out" over the main video

You're so talented - great lessons that you provide. But, t..there is s..something w..wrong h..here - I'm freaking out. Mua-ha-ha-ha...

This is not so far out, hehe. If we analyze it, all notes of the G# pentatonic is actually parts of the dominant chord to G which in this case would be D13b5 EXCEPT for the C# note which is allowed since it's the "blue" note of the G-minor scale. To play on the dominant over a static chord is a common "trick" among jazz & fusion players to create tension. Another "weird" thing to try is to play the progression Amb5 D7#9 Gm7 over the G-minor chord in terms of pentatonics. (or in terms of scales too, of course) This will give us D-minor pentatonic for the Am7b5-chord, F-minor for the D7#9 chord and resolves into G-minor for the G-minor chord. Why?
Since Am7b5 can be played using C-melodic minor scale and if You build a pentatonic upon that - it will be D-minor pentatonic. Same goes for the D7#9 chord. Here we play Eb melodic minor (which is equal to D super-locrian), a pentatonic scale built on this will give us F-minor pentatonic.
Hard to understand? Naaah, it is worser trying to play it. *lmao* The people responsible for this mess is actually the late John Coltrane & McCoy Tyner, the latter use this A LOT in his recordings, it is way cool, at least I think so...
