phishin4groove Posted January 17, 2004 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2004 Im thinking maybe B Mixolydian? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradm Posted January 17, 2004 Report Share Posted January 17, 2004 E major = E F# G# A B C# D# E B mix = B C# D# E F# G# A B so E major has the same notes as B mix. So, if you play those notes, using E as a root, it's E major; if you use B, it's B mix. If you use D# (or Eb), it's be Eb locrian.

weisle Posted January 17, 2004 Report Share Posted January 17, 2004 ya dude phishin4groove gots tit....the tune is in b major....the progression is a simple B maj to A maj.....soloing when on the B it's B major...but when it goes to the A maj u use b mixolydian ...because A is the flat 7 of the Bmaj scale ...hence the mixolydian.....Cheers...a great tune at honing ur soloing skills!

Rary8 Posted January 19, 2004 Report Share Posted January 19, 2004 It's B mixolydian as well as B natural. I'm pretty sure Jerry hits that A as well as the A#. here's something.... http://chaosjeff.tripod.com/Fire.html Peace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
