I thought that if I dug this line so much, why don't I try to use the concept it originates from over the whole blues progression and see where that leads.\u003c\/p\u003e  \n\n\u003cp\u003eI began writing down a variety of patterns using the dominant pentatonic scale and applying them to the blues progression as well as tri-tone substitutions on a blues. I was shocked by how transformed my lines sounded over a 12-bar blues.Ê I was playing ideas and lines I had never played before in over 40 years of playing the saxophone.Ê The lines sound intervallic, flowing and modern.Ê This book is a 444 page collection of my work on this dominant pentatonic concept and includes 52 blues exercises in all 12 keys.Ê I think you will find it as transformational as I have.Ê Ê Ê Steve Neff\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003ePS.
