Easy Jazz Backing Track (Medium Swing) // 2-5-1 in A Minor

Показать описание

Here's a fun, swinging jazz practice backing track for improvising on the classic minor 2-5-1 progression in the key of A Minor

Minor 2-5-1 jazz practice jam track in ALL 12 keys

Smooth Jazz Blues Jam Track (Am)

More jazz play-alongs

Chord progression:

II: Bmin7b5 I E7 I Amin7 I Amin7 :II

On the track, you will hear extensions of these chords - as is common in jazz of course :)

Scale suggestions:

A minor scale - A B C D E F G (A)

(Bmin7b5 chords and Amin7 chords)

A harmonic minor scale - A B C D E F G# (A)

(E7 chords)

Basic arpeggios:

Bmin7b5 arpeggio = B D F A

E7 arpeggio = E G# B D

Am7 arpeggio = A C E G

Next up, try out some more advanced colours on the dominant chord (E7) by treating it as an altered chord and using the altered scale:

E altered scale - E F G Ab Bb C D (E)

The altered scale is the mode which starts on the 7th step of the melodic minor scale, so in other words - the notes of E altered scale are the same as those of F melodic minor scale :)

Intro played on a Peerless guitar - borrowed from the one and only Les Davidson!

Enjoy!

This particular jam along in A minor, has helped me. Is continuing to help me with my improvising skills. I've actually been able to us this minor 2-5-1 progression in helping me with developing the make the guitar talk kinds of progressions. You are truly a genius in the way you put those tracks together. Thanks to you I am never bored anymore. I wish there was a way I could show you how much this track has helped me!!!

Rob Grenville from RealChords Pro iPad app here. Top track. Thanks QuistJam. This is Bm7b5, E7, and Am7. All chords in the Am chord scale. The Bm7b5 is the 2 chord and is the Locrian chord in this scale. (it is the 7 chord in the relative C Major scale) The E7 is the Phrygian and the Am7 the Aeolian. The point is that soloing in C/Am (no sharps or flats) means the modes follow you. The Locrian sound natural in this context, not weird. That is the main use for modes: that they follow you. The chords do the work and you play in home key. Try Autumn Leaves in Em. It has all the chords of the Em/G chord scale. Play only in Em and let the chords follow you. Easy on the mind, and kind to the ear!!

I’ve been learning jazz scales and this was really helpful for improvising, thanks

chris

Really great licks, so free style, hard to make a mistake.
Great rhythm chops, that's just like my ole man in 52, I always thought
He was a hard ass, but good chops like a good clock.
