II-V-I Patterns

Starting on the Tonic of the

II Minor 7 Chord
By

Tim Price
Ive taken a basic study and then moved it through six steps. Then I included one
of my own based on a variation of some of the first six.
I think its always good for all of us to go back to a basic pattern study to clear
our ears and refresh our chops. Look at all six shapes. As you start to hear the line, go
back and write something of your own based on mine.
Rememberwriting stuff down speeds up YOUR learning process. Get together
with a playalong CD and put these to use.
Remember Im giving you this to activate your creativity. Study my shapes
really carefully listen to how the line starts and stops. Thentry some of your own.
Hope this helps.
