Miles davis et John Coltrane - So what
Back- Miles Davis and John Coltrane play one of the best renditions of SO WHAT ever captured on film-Live in 1958. Edit : in fact, was in New York, april 2, 1959. Recorded by CBS producer Robert Herridge. Cannonball Adderley had a migrane and was absent from the session. Wynton Kelly played piano--he was the regular band member at this time--but Bill Evans had played on the original recording of "So What" on March 2, 1959. The other musicians seen in the film were part of the Gil Evans Orchestra, who performed selections from "Miles Ahead". Jimmy Cobb on drums.

Haha, funny enough, that's how I memorize modes on guitar. Considering D Dorian is just Cmajor, I picture the major scale that's under it and focus the notes around the root.

i figured it out, from the 0:37 section he is actually using C# Ionian (major) to solo over the Eb, and again at 1:28... and fuck, i just realized that that IS Eb Dorian haha u r totally right. for some reason i was mixing up the notes of Eb Dorian with a different scale and i got confused.

dude may i ask if youre white?

Eh? I mean, the key changes follow the main theme, which changes from D Dorian to Eflat Dorian, so I'd assume he's soloing in Eflat dorian...? I mean, of course, people like to meander in blues scales and Dorian #4, but that's what I can hear mainly from this video?
I may be wrong.

I AGREE! think it's the only period where you can find such an amount of talents and genious invention.Great video
MyManDan (January 7, 2009 at 12:30 am)
ok so in the Dm sections he is meandering around D dorian, but when the key changes to a half step up, specifically from 0:37 to 0:49, what scale would be used in that section to solo over?
