Thank you Gary and I appreciate it. Recovering and trying to get the overall physical strength back!

My Man Greg! Thank you and miss you as well. Hugs from us and your loved ones and let's stay in touch!

Very good observations! All of these were a part of Dennis Sandole's literature.

@@mtstyre7768 Dbl Harmonic Lydian has a b2 1 b2 3 #4 5 b6 7

@@mtstyre7768 what other uncommon exotic scales are in that book? How what do you think about Persian? (Loc nat3 nat7) 1 b2 3 4 b5 b6 7 That's a complicated scale to use. Maybe Persian with Lydian since they both Have a Maj7b5? Harmonic, Double Harmonic scales and exotic scales. For minor it's #4 and 7 For major it's b2 and b6. Dor nat 7 (Mel min) Dor #4 (Romanian Min) Dor #4 nat 7 (Lyd b3) Harmonic minor (aeol nat7) Gypsy minor (aeol #4) Hungarian minor (dbl harm min) aeol #4 7 Phrygian 7 (neap min) Phrygian #4 Phrygian #4 nat7 (dbl harm phry) Loc nat7 Loc nat3 Loc nat3 nat7 (Persian could be considered dbl harm loc) Alt nat 7 On the major side Mix b2 Mix b6 Mix b2 b6 (phry dom) Ion b2 Ion b6 (harm maj) Ion b2 b6 (dbl harm maj) Lyd b2 Lyd b6 (harm lyd) Lyd b2 b6 (dbl harmonic Lydian) dominant scales Lyd dom Mix Aeol dom Loc dom Altered Lyd Dom #9 (Hungarian Major) Lyd Dom b9 (Romanian Major) The phrygian #4 and phry #4 nat 7 are I like and they are rarely used. another uncommon exotic scales is Ionian #2 b6 with the augmented scale tones.

@@user-pm2xj9st6f Excellent contribution! There are a good bit of exotic and synthetic scales in here (about 48-50) and their potential use in tunes as examples so it looks at 50 or so on a bit of a deeper level in terms of application. I do a couple a week or so in addition to the other things I work on. I like the application side of it. Give it a try as if you like this sort of thing I could guess it is a good bet.

Thank you Rick and give it a shot. It is a good one IMO

Thank you Keith-it is a great book!

TY very much!--hope to be back soon as I am working on a big "Chord Book" but it is taking forever and might have to be in parts.

@@mtstyre7768 That sounds great. Just revisited your 'fusion chord' videos, always an inspiration Scott!

I am glad you found them useful and I appreciate the kind words. The series I am doing is based on decades of work on the chords and I think its probably a protracted piece of work. They will all be short 8 to 15 min videos so I'm still working on the videos. I'm thinking this will be in at least two parts.

@@mtstyre7768 I'm close to finishing a couple of books myself so know the hard work that goes into such projects. It's fine until the editor gets involved!

@@lightningstrikes7314 LOL so true and def keep us posted on the books OK

TY Damien!!!!

Nice Matt and TY--it's a good one...Easy to follow and work through.

Great Frank and I hope you enjoy the book. Fabrice did a good job on it and this is nice to hear.

Great book

HI Jay, thank you for tuning in and looking at this material and for the interest in the other things. I would say it might be a good companion as the book has examples from "standard" tunes so yes perhaps it would be a good companion to Fabrice's book. Have a look and see if it interests you.

@@mtstyre7768 ok, i'll do that. Thank you

@@jaycayssa7155 the scales are different in each but it might work in the sense that they both apply the material. My book is all "old school" notation for any instrument. TY!

@@mtstyre7768 I know, that's fine with me, since I'm trying to improve my sight reading. I'm currently working on your twelve-tone octave displacement book, I'm enjoying it a lot. Thanks for everything, have a happy new year

@@jaycayssa7155 TY Jay and this is very kind of you. Have a great New Year and there is much more to come. Please enjoy the texts/videos, music, etc.
