PENTATONIC INTERSECTIONS

last month, an essential tenet of blues guitar soloing is to switch back and forth between parallel minor and major pentatonic scales. A typical 12-bar blues progression consists of three chords, the I (one), the IV (four) and the V (five). In the key of G, the I chord is G (or and so the fourth note is C, also known as minor “the fourth pentatonic of G,” and (G, B the b , C fifth , D, F is ) and D. Both G major G pentatonic (G, A, B, D, E) sound great when played over the progression.
