Re: Jerry Bergonzi: Vol. 3 Jazz Lines #Scales

 

He's just choosing to use the first choice scale-wise for the dominant functioning chord in a turnaround to minor tonic (IIm7?5-V7?9-Im7-Im6) , the 5th mode of the Harmonic Minor scale, variously named Mixolydian ?9?13, Phrygian Dominant. Phrygian ?3 etc., As I'm sure you know, the Harmonic Minor scale was "created" for harmony purposes from the Natural Minor scale by raising the ?7 to ?7, to give us two important harmonic pointer chords V7?9? (often for Cycle-5 progressions) and VIIdim7 (often for Cycle-2 progressions). Scale wise the first choice scales for turnaround to minor tonic are:

| Mode 2 Nat. Min for IIm7?5 | Mode 5 Har. Min. for V7?9 | Mode 1 Nat. Min for Im7 | Mode 1 Mel. Min for Im6 |

If you listen to the masters, for example Bird, you'll hear the use of Harmonic Minor.

But of course depending on what you want to do you can increase the tension on the V7 chord by altering other tones.

Hope that helps!

Jerry Bergonzi: Vol. 3 Jazz Lines #Scales

 

Anyone work through this book? It's mainly Bergonzi's take on the Bebop scale, with tunes derivative of Bebop tunes such as Blues For Alice, Joy Spring, etc. For minor key tunes, he uses IV7b9b13. Any idea as to why he prefers this to an altered dominant? No lowered 5th or raised 11th? Apparently he's preferring The Harmonic Minor scale?

For example, he's got Cm69 Bebop scale, leading to F7b9b13. Why?


Re: Update Profile

 

I think I fixed the issue. Thanks for your help!

I am a columnist for Jazz Guitar Today, an outstanding online publication devoted to the jazz guitar. Take a look and see if this contact can be a help to you and the group. You can talk to Bob Bakert and/or Joe Perry. Use my name if it's a benefit to you. Chuck

开云体育 is new to me, but lets see if we can figure this out.

The first thing I see is that with groups.io your profile information is controlled solely by you (currently, I believe moderators can't edit your profile) and each group you are a member of on group.io, can have a diffent profile, in other words you can customize your profile for each group you are subscribed to. You have a main account profile and individual profiles for each group you are subscribed to. Changes made to your main account profile will automatically apply to each group profile, with the exception of those specific fields in each group profile that you've previously customized.

I am assuming you are editiing your profile by
either:
1/ Going to the top right drop-down box, Clicking on Account>Identity>then either your Main Profile or your Jazz-Guitar Group Profile
or:
2/ Clicking on Subscription>Group Profile>Edit Group Profile (That's your Jazz-Guitar Group Profile)

Next:

Did you upload the picture by dragging the image to profile photo or by browsing to a file on your computer?

Check to see that you have set your profile privacy to "Other members of your group"

If it's still not working, perhaps there's some glitch? ? If so, what does the error message exactly say and when does it occur? I'll have to investigate further.

Re: End of an Era: Yahoo will delete all Yahoo Groups content on December 14th

 

Could it be possible to move the group to Google Groups instead (which I imagine would be free) and also archive the old content there?? (The other non-moderated jazz guitar group with Lord Valve et al is already on Google Groups, of course),

Re: End of an Era: Yahoo will delete all Yahoo Groups content on December 14th

 

groups.io also has a free plan? with 1 GB of storage.?

The following are counted towards the storage limits for your group:

  • Files
  • Photos
  • Images in databases
  • Images in wiki pages
  • Message attachments

Messages themselves are not counted towards the storage limits, only any attachments.

How much space does the yahoo group files section use currently?

Hi Alasdair,
How to detroy a unique resource and walk away with millions of dollars! Ask Marissa Mayer.

Let's hope that the Jazz Guitar information can be safely downloaded.

In the meantime, thanks for your excellent curating of the Group in its heyday. I hope that you are still an active teacher and player.
All the best,
Charles

Folks

It's the end of an era.... Yahoo's former CEO Marissa Mayer effectively destroyed Yahoo groups back in 2013,

'WTF! MORONS!' Yahoo! Groups! redesign! traumatises! users! ? The Register

continued her destruction of Yahoo successfully driving it into the ground to the point where she could leave in 2017 the shell of the company to be acquired by Altaba/Verizon, who unable to save the wreck on October 2, 2019 ceased trading on the Nasdaq at the close of the day.

So it comes of no surprise that Yahoo who previously bought and destroyed GeoCities,

Yahoo! Pulls Plug on GeoCities, Erases Internet History - TIME

have made the decision to no longer allow users to upload content to the Yahoo Groups site. Beginning October 21, you won't be able to upload any more content to the site, and as of December 14 all previously posted content on the site will be permanently removed. You'll have until that date to save anything you've uploaded.

More information about that decision:


As archivist Jason Scott told Time: “These guys found the way to destroy the most massive amount of history in the shortest amount of time with absolutely no recourse”.


I am hoping that we will be able to archive the group before then, even if only for historical purposes.
