Alex Hutchings: 3 Ways to SPICE up the Pentatonic



I hope you'll have fun with this simple concept and that'll you'll find it useful in your own playing. For those of you on Patreon I've just uploaded an exclusive 10 minute Jam with me video where I use all three of these concepts showing more tips and playing phrases with space for you to either mimic my phrases or come up with your own ideas. There are also extended backing tracks in a variety of keys for you to play and learn from too. For those of you here on Youtube you can use these ideas over any Dorian Aeolian or Harmonic minor backing track too... Happy jamming and see you soon. Much more content coming soon here on Youtube as well as exclusive extras on Patreon....
