Joel Rivard: Shawn Lane's Super Stretch Pent Run


Shawn already rules, but then you see this? From the live version of Get You Back from MIT, in the instructional video. He plays this amazing stretchy line using major pent (mostly), it sounds amazing and is super technical. It could be called a maj7 lick but I think of this as pent because most of it is a combination of 2 pent positions. I also cover the concept and use other positions as well. It's a great way to enhance your pentatonic lines in general by combining positions. The repeated note you get is common in jazz/fusion sax playing.
